Ideas on marketing, business & growth
The No Man’s Land Between Idea and Execution
Most ideas don’t die because they were bad. They die because the path from thought to proof costs too much. AI is changing that — and it’s a bigger deal than most people realize.
Not everyone sees the game inside the game.
Most people look for a job. Some people look for an opportunity. A small group looks at every job as an opportunity — and can't help but see the business inside the business.
The Point Guard
I spent part of today trying to explain to myself what exactly I'm building. Here's what I landed on: I'm building a point guard.
The Sport Was Never Really About the Sport
I've been playing pickleball for a couple of years. Somewhere along the way, it stopped being about pickleball.
The Day You Stop Being Curious Is the Day You Start Going Backwards
My dad didn't grow up with computers. Tonight I helped him find ticket receipts on his phone. He figured it out. It got me thinking about what it really means to stay curious as you get older.
The Part of Sales Nobody Talks About
Every new client has a story. A business they built, a risk they took, a hustle that became their life. I connect with that — and it turns out, that connection might be worth more than the deal.
