Girlfriend bought me a 5 week welding class in September. Woodwork has been my medium since I was a kid. Always dreamed of learning to weld. Can't wait.
Hot Take: SMB operators going through ERP integrations could become highly effective product managers in a tech startup. Trial by fire. Who's dreading (or sweating) a ERP implementation?
Just pitched this in response to a DM from a follower. I'd like to offer this up to one or two other companies who are building in public, want to create some content, and get some business too. A quick thought for you. If you're a build in public kinda guy, it could be fun to…
Salesforce experts. What's the best approach to getting an extension on a Sales Cloud contract? 55 seats, almost 1 year in to a 2 year contract, consultant botched the project. Totally unusable product. Salesforce needs to do the right thing and extend. @MIProfitHunter tagging…
I'll say it louder for the people in the back.

Hot lead just went cold. Great business having a stellar year. Owners want to hang on for the ride. Can I blame them? Nope. Running a growing business (or buying one, for that matter) is more exciting than a failing one. In solidarity CEOs. In solidarity.
4 days in the market with @torchpx, closed one client, advancing a second with high probability to close, a third with a very clear problem set and propensity to close. Pitched proof of concept to train an LLM on a dataset ripe for this evolution. Zero marketing.
"How to Start Google" (paulgraham.com/google.html) was a talk at my older son's school. It was one of a series of talks about careers. I just heard the students voted it the best one, and I'm happier than if I'd won some prestigious award.
Capital superabundance trickles down even after the cycle turns and rates go up.
Mark my words. Everyone and their dog is going to try and sell AI to businesses. But, the 2 major differentiators of a vendor will be: - Do they understand your business context and process in totality? - Will they force rank their projects based on ROI? Caveat emptor.
I'm regularly humbled by the folks I get to hang with. Blessed beyond compare. Yesterday's announcement on LinkedIn has had nearly 5,000 impressions with the top job titles being precisely the buyers for my work at @torchpx 🔦

Interview with a female ultra high end travel consultant. "His" yacht. "He has customized everything..." I'd be ok if we had a few more female billionaires so our daughters don't default to "he".
1/15 Foreign ministry spokesperson Li Jian says that the U.S. "overcapacity" narrative is a very blunt US policy tool whose purpose is to undermine Chinese industry. He isn't completely wrong: there is a lot of confusion over what "overcapacity" means. english.news.cn/20240420/3e344…
