“Build It Like You’re Gonna Sell It”

Podcast 19:52 | Download | Spotify| Stitcher | iTunes

Dan revives his Re-Readables series with a discussion inspired by Frank Slootman's business book Amp It Up. He delves into the book's core arguments, such as the idea that execution trumps strategy, faster execution can drive better decision-making and growth, and the importance of building for investability.

Plus, how exactly to improve your execution and boost your business’s performance.
