18: OpenAI and Cursor use WorkOS, should we? Plus, why we are evolving our B2B sales strategy.
In this episode, Mitchell and Gavin reflect on a huge milestone: SixSides has hit the six-month mark - and things are finally starting to move. They dive into a brilliant new sales call that reshaped their positioning, reveal how WorkOS helped them ship auth in record time, and unpack what it means to bootstrap while juggling other businesses.
Expect a candid, behind-the-scenes look at what it really takes to launch a B2B SaaS company from scratch – completely bootstrapped.
