There is a lot to dissect from this interview for small businesses and entrepreneurs. The goal is not to get big fast (although that is so sweet), but to engage with your "brand" advocates to help make your living and expand your reach.
- dan_sim 17y agoI personally don't like it when everything that is extended to entrepreneurs. I posted it for independant musicians (and there seems to be a lot among us) that want to make a living from music. I don't think it really applies for entrepreneurs in general.
- ryanwaggoner 17y agoIndependent musicians trying to make a living from their music are entrepreneurs, and most of what I saw in the article definitely applies to someone bootstrapping a startup.
- modoc 17y agoIn this case though it seems applicable to at least some sub-set of startups. Our company, admittedly B2B focused, would not be where it is today if we hadn't engaged strongly with a large customer right off and made them impressed and happy with our service. Not only did that secure a solid revenue stream, but it gave us a great referencable client, and people who were bring our name up in conversations just because they liked what we did for them.
