If everybody says talking to customers is the key to building a successful product, then why do so many companies fail? How do you explain the PM who conducts UXR groups and customer discovery calls for years but doesn’t ship a successful product? Where is the disconnect

Most investors need to do a better job of emotionally recalibrating themselves when speaking to their portfolio company founders. Maybe you have 30 other investments but this company is the founder’s life and they put all their chips on the table to make it work. Coming off

The human tendency to anthropomorphize everything is even more tempting when the inner workings of a technology are invisible.

I remember the era when folks would go change the default search engine on all of their less tech savvy friends/family's computers to Google, and later on to do a similar move and install Firefox + make it the default browser. That is some serious word of mouth adoption!

I was flattered, and yes, I still feel funny about it. But, it doesn't change anything on my end. I will continue to search for the best people to spend the next decade supporting. That's my process. Harvest will come. https://t.co/EZ9jK9K2f1

As a VC, it's my job to find the best people and write "seed" checks backing them. This nomenclature is not coincidental. Some will achieve their wildest dreams but most will not. That's okay. Some seeds never sprout, but they're a critical part of their ecosystem nonetheless.
