Episode interviewees: Tim Doyle, co-founder of Eucalyptus and Nick Crocker, General Partner at Blackbird


Key topics covered:


  • The challenges and opportunities of healthcare
  • Which experiments are helping Eucalyptus scale beyond 100 people
  • How the company's ambition has grown over the past year


    • The best of Tim Doyle:

    • "If you can make medical information accessible and engaging, you can empower better decisions at a much earlier point.
    • "If you don't maximise the amount of time that your organisation is fully stocked and ready to work on the problem that you're trying to solve at the hardest level, then you probably rob yourself of the chance to solve that problem by the time you next need to go back out to market"
    • "One of the things about being a founder of a company is that you realise how much better people in your organisation are at most things than you are very quickly."
    • "Our philosophy on marketing is that if you product enough stuff in enough channels, often enough, then you lower the cost of doing that, and then the best stuff will outperform the average stuff by a thousand percent."


      • The best of Nick Crocker:

      • "The execution is pretty spectacular. I'm not exaggerating when I say it's stunning to watch."
      • "Visionary founders are most impactful when they're partnered with an operational psychopath...someone who's completely true, completely across everything and fearless in throwing themselves into unknown, dense, difficult to understand areas."
      • Growing 10% in your first month is very different to growing 10% in your 24th month"
      • "It's not just people buying ads. It's a growth engineering team...a resource allocation team in a really complex problem space."
