What can B2B startups learn from Liquid Death? I first encountered the water can with Roei Yellin on the rooftop of a SVB event in Austin, we both passed on it because it was too early in the afternoon to drink and we literally taught it was an alcoholic beverage. Ever since that encounter, I got extremely curious on how the company does it's go-to-market. There are so many things that startup founders in B2B can learn from this consumer packaged goods brand.. Here are just a few 👇🏼

-> A mic drop moment by Rajiv Daya last night at the The Founders Den event. 3 insights from 1st, 2nd and 3rd time founders, you can use in the way you think about innovation. No, it's not what you think it is ;) 1st time founders (or innovators) think about the "Product" or "Solution" 2nd time founders (or innovators) think about "Distribution" 3rd time founders (or innovators) think about the "Value Chain" We should all think more about the integration to the value chain and how our solution and it's distribution plays a role in the greater value chain. Now you get to skip the monopoly pain and "Advance to Go" (Collect $200) 😉 #InnovationInsights #FoundersWisdom #StartupTips Jeetesh Mistry, Ryan Sauer, Merelda Wu

Kudos to Rahul George and Praveeni Rasiah for an outstanding #landandexpand demo day event! From impressive startup founders and ideas to delicious food, the entire experience was top-notch. Christina Cai's keynotes were particularly inspiring. Here are the 3 tips that really hit home for me: ✨ Seeking help from someone who has recently gone through a similar process, someone just a step ahead of us, provides invaluable insight as they have the freshest perspective on what it's like to be in our shoes. ✨ Instead of constantly chasing the MVP (Minimum Viable Product), it's crucial for companies to focus on the MUP (Minimal Usable Product). This is what truly drives value. ✨ When developing your product, it's essential to decide whether to go deep, providing a focused solution to a specific problem, or to go wide, offering a more comprehensive solution with broader functionalities. #landandexpand community, curious to hear your take on the event.
