Highlights
- “I don’t know how to ‘feel’ like an entrepreneur. To me entrepreneurship isn’t a feeling.”
- “When you create something, out of nothing, and somebody consumes it and loves it – that’s entrepreneurship.”
- “The people that get stuck… they don’t bother to figure out what it is (that they can make) that people will love.”
- “To be an entrepreneur you have to build things, and people have to love them.”
- “Almost any problem you see in a company boils down to people and product.”
- “It’s hard to manufacture genuine customer appreciation.”
- “As the creators of things, the people part is huge. You need to ask: ‘how do you humanize a product’?”
- “CrazyEgg was 1 of 10 things we tried; and it was the one that resonated the most with people.”
