As a startup founder you’ll 100% go through long periods where nothing feels like it’s working and the key is to just keep going.
Startups are really hard. That’s why most people never build one. Luckily you don't have to be like most people. Keep going.
The CTO watching the CEO sell a feature that doesn’t exist:
2025 was a massive year at @acquiredotcom! We closed multiple life changing 7-figure deals and even an 8-figure deal. $100+ million in total deal volume. More importantly we learned exactly why those founders won. I’m hosting a webinar breaking down what actually worked in 2025 and how we’re helping founders do the same in 2026. In this webinar, I’ll walk through: > What won in 2025 > What buyers actually underwrite > How founders can set themselves up to win in 2026 If you’re thinking about selling someday (or soon), you should come.

Building a startup is really hard. Finding product market is hard. Figuring our sales is hard. Standing out from competition is hard. Staying in the game is hard. All of it is hard but also rewarding. So I hope you go for it regardless.
Talk to your customers. Talk to your customers. Talk to your customers. I promise they know more about your startup's roadmap than you do.
Overcommunicate at your startup. Your team cannot read your mind.
