In 2002, I met Libba and Gifford Pinchot, cofounders of Bainbridge Graduate Institute , at a retreat. I believe that without clear priorities on what will achieve the most, most of us will fritter away the day on email and menial tasks. I‘d do the first before I’d check email for the day. Enter the Craziness.

Therefore, when giving feedback in such cases, a VC has to get the amount of provided information just right to help the entrepreneur yet avoid a conflicting email conversation.

We use email; we use Word; we use task manager; we use a file sharing tool. Meetings are definitely one of those places, but email is another primary way that that comes in. So that’s a very simple way of saying it’s task management, but it’s getting rid of emails that of course no one wants emails.

How cofounders can collaborate without going crazy. Well they’re already burning, so I would suggest as you move toward a paid model, at the same time, you start diligently building a network of alliances with people who already have a good reason to promote your service.
