#53: Insights and lessons from the first year of the Practical Founders Podcast – Greg Head


Listen Later

As the host of the Practical Founders Podcast, I have interviewed 46 successful SaaS founders and 6 savvy experts in the first year of weekly episodes. In this episode, I share some of the deeper insights, surprising lessons, and useful perspective that I have learned after so many great conversations. 

Practical founders are building valuable software companies without big funding all over the world and in every corner of the software business. It's an amazing time to be a practical founder. Practical founders are solving problems, changing the world, and doing it their way.

The founder equity value and founder wealth created by just the 46 founders I interviewed this year is over $1 billion. Tune in to this episode where I share what's going on right now and how these founders are succeeding in their own ways.

In this episode, Greg explains:

  • What characteristics that all successful practical founders have in common
  • Why there are so many variations and ways to create a successful software company when you don’t raise big funding
  • What has happened in the last 5 years that makes it better for most new founders to grow a serious software company without big funding
  • Why we don’t see the hundreds of billions of founder equity value and wealth that have been created by practical founders who have grown thousands of valuable software companies without big funding
