Steve Blank

I’m going home this weekend. Something weird was happening to me. Burned out?”

Steve Blank

MAY 22, 2009

This is worthy of an open and honest discussion with sales up front. Have a good weekend! Going to a show to get leads is a sales function, if the leads aren’t followed up marketing won’t be supporting these kinds of trade shows out of their budgets. Welcome them loudly and openly. What didn’t? that made it clear for me.

DECEMBER 12, 2011

The trusty jazz playlist had been stretched to its limits over the course of an intense weekend and I was not inclined to spend more money on songs suggested by Apple’s Genius algorithm, which had made a couple of odd suggestions in the past. publicly then Serendip is worth a try.
