“I actually, my LinkedIn post today, the title of that is I once took money from an investor and it's private investor. He invested about $250 ks and that made me realize the only person who needs to give you money is your customers.”
“I think it's only tricking your users when you start by telling them it's live when it's not. Because authenticity, especially when you are bootstrapping is your currency.”
“You can spend years building your credibility and just seconds to destroy it. So we are advocates of please do not trick your customers. Do not tell them it's live when it's not. You should be open and honest to tell them, hey, this webinar is recorded, but I'm managing the chat, which is exactly what we allow you to do.”
