In this conversation he talks about:
- His journey building Drip Capital, going from 0 to 2 billion dollars in transactions on the platform.
- Getting incubated by Y Combinator when Drip Capital was just two founders with just an idea.
- Scaling the business across three markets, building a team of 250+ employees, and raising 500M+ in venture funding.
Key Take-Aways:
- Building a startup is about experimentation, understanding the customers’ pain points and launching something - failing quickly - launching again.
- Your success as a startup depends on how and why you uniquely solve your customer’s pain points.
- Scaling up a business is like building a scalable machine. You start with generalists who can do everything and bring in specialists who can build specific functions once the business scales.
