This newsletter is for you if…
- You want to learn from someone actively making mistakes in the trenches (not more recycled guru garbage)
- You're pursuing sustainable cash-flow and enterprise value, not a VC-backed category-killer
- You're stuck in "research mode" and afraid to start executing
- You feel crippled by Shiny Object Syndrome and can't decide what business to start
- You're passionate about entrepreneurship and work fills your cup
This newsletter is not for you if…
- You do not want weekly emails discussing the business problems I'm solving in real time

- You're emotionally attached to your business and don't make data-driven decisions
- You don't want to read opinionated (and sometimes sharp-elbowed) content on entrepreneurship
