SXSW is a month away! I’ve been going for 20 years and have attended all the parties, planned the biggest events and the smallest curated dinners, launched products, had a tradeshow booth, and figured out how to get on every guest list. Ask me anything…
So @NickKyrgios… Nick nicked a nickname from his NBA fandom - Kevin Durant has been Slim Reaper for years

Constantly surprised by how many business problems can be solved by getting on a plane. This goes for prospects, customers, and teammates.
I typically don't rant here but I've had THE worst experience at @OliverCabell. I'm at a loss on how to get my wife the shoes I bought her for Christmas!
Shipping delays, missing inventory, customs fuck ups, their returns dept. losing packages, & contradictory customer service.
In the early days, Zappos' founder, Nick Swinmurn, faked product/market fit by selling shoes online with photos and without inventory. Learn how to validate your business ideas.

1) Value: is what they get
2) Price: is what they pay
3) Cost: is what it costs you
Great business: 1 > 2 > 3
Most businesses: 2 > 1 > 3
Bad software startups: 3 > 2 > 1 😂

Productivity is:

8 productivity killers (and how to beat them):
I can’t believe how bad the experience of buying shoes at @OliverCabell has been… Ordered on Dec 15 with 3 days shipping for my wife’s X-mas present. After repeatedly f#cking up, they say it’ll be some time in March! & I can’t even get a full refund if I wanted one!
