Highlights from S3 E1 of Wild Hearts with Blinq Founder Jarrod Webb "[Uber] really helped me set the standard for what a generational company needs to do in terms of the output quality, the people that you hire and how you work." 🦄 The intersection of "Market | Product | Channel | Model fit is an incredible framework for thinking about how to build a generational company... Product-Market fit is not the right way to think about building anything." 🔥 "There are four factors that you need for virality. Firstly, you need a really short time to the "aha!" moment... Secondly, people need to be able to explain the product within one sentence... Thirdly, there needs to be a really broad value proposition... And finally, the product needs to get better the more of your network is on the product." Businesses started reaching out, saying "hang on, we'll pay you" and Jarrod "realised [he] had a viral product with a bottoms-up SaaS component" to it. "After a few customers came onboard, I realised this actually has real traction, so I left Uber to work on this full time, and then grew a lot during 2021." 🐣 Get in contact with Mason to share feedback, ask questions or share a pitch deck here.
