If you're a CPG or retail brand, you know by default the importance of brand.
It's what people buy into as much as the product itself.
There's a reason why you choose to pay more for a Nike shirt when you could reasonably buy the same shirt without the logo.
Brand is a promise.
It's a value system. It's a marker of trust for your community and customers that signals an understanding and expectation of the product experience.
In the software world, brand tends to get pushed to the side.
It doesn't matter as long as the product is good.
But if you want to worry less about competition, have more control over pricing, and get customers to move with you when you make pivots, your best served making brand-led decisions.
Sarah Sitz knows exactly what this looks like, having spent time as employee #14 at Foxtrot helping grow the company from Series A to C and launching their private-label brand, and now as Cofounder of brand GTM agency The Squeeze.
She steps to the mic in this week's episode to share how to invest wisely in your brand, position yourself for growth, and the difference between an influencer and influential strategy.

Everyone wants to have a community.
Everyone says they have a community.
But just having a Slack or WhatsApp group doesn't actually mean you have community.
Community is more about the interactions than the medium.
And investing in community means playing the long game.
Which is why so many brands don't think it's worth the effort.
My friend Pablo Gonzalez has cracked the community code with a playbook that accrues short-term high-impact wins while waiting for the long game to play out.
Through a process he calls Experiential Content Marketing, his company, Be The Stage, generated a $40M revenue channel from scratch for one of their customers.
I've wanted to interview him for a while, and the stars finally aligned.
He steps to the mic in this week's episode to share how you should reframe your community approach, how anyone can create community regardless of brand size, the metrics to track, and how losing his brother unexpectedly 9 years ago turned into an epiphany moment.

What does it take to turn an idea for a boutique 7-11 into a tech-driven consumer market, into a national brand that merged with one of the biggest names in grocery?
Enjoy this special episode, a replay of my interview with Foxtrot CEO & Cofounder Mike LaVitola live from the Startup Grind Chicago 4th Annual Great Chicago Food Bash in January 2024.
Mike shares overcoming rejection for his crazy idea in the early days, to raising nearly $200M and scaling up nationally.
He talks about the importance of optimizing for brand experience, identifying adjacencies in customer behavior, and why data actually isn't everything.

I think we can all agree AI is seemingly everywhere.
But what does that actually mean for a startup?
Enjoy this special episode, a replay of my interview with Techstars Managing Director Tricia Martinez-Saab live from the Startup Grind Chicago AI Showcase in November 2023.
Tricia leads the AI and deep-tech verticals at Techstars and shares her perspective on the good and bad of AI's permeation, how to approach integrating AI into your product, the ethics behind an AI-powered future, and how she makes investment decisions for AI startups at Techstars.

The 3-letter acronym every startup obsesses with is TAM.
But what is your TAM comprised of, and specifically WHO makes up your TAM?
When you go to market, you may think your target is one group, but then find it includes others you weren't previously considering.
That was the case for Cardio Diagnostics, who built a solution with a clear end user but involved multiple ancillary decision makers and economic buyers, and alternative use cases.
This forced them to expand their TAM in order to successfully penetrate the market and grow revenue.
And with a team of just 10 they've managed to go public on the NASDAQ.
Their Co-founder & CEO, Meesha Dogan, steps to the mic in this week's episode to share how they have strategically charted their market and TAM to win the big deals that take a long time to close, and the small deals that turn around quickly.

In a down economy, runway is everything.
But it should also be everything in a boom economy.
Great companies figure out how to spend less, and make more.
Jordan Tepper cofounded the cocktail brand Apologue in 2017, and in the 7 years since he's achieved over $1M annual revenue, while raising just $2.5M in that time, and as of this writing still carrying $1M of that raise in the bank.
For a CPG brand with significant fixed expenses, Apologue's story is a clinic on meaningful growth and spend.
Jordan steps to the mic in our season premiere to share the specific hacks his team has employed to make the most of every dollar since day one.

You've probably joined a virtual meeting where a phantom 3rd party named Fireflies also joined.
Heck, maybe it was your personal Firefly that joined.
You're not alone.
In fact, Fireflies.ai has taken notes for over 5 million calls and is now used by over 150,000 organizations.
It's no wonder Khosla Ventures led their $19M Series A round.
When you hear those kinds of numbers, you think of massive marketing and sales budgets.
But Fireflies did it without spending on either. Instead, they focused entirely on product-led growth and opting for a horizontal go-to-market over vertical.
Krish steps to the mic in this week's episode to share how they successfully achieved their PLG strategy, and even shares the real story behind the Fireflies name (it's not what you think).

We all know what it feels like to be on the receiving end of really good content.
Whether it's a funny meme, an inspiring video, or an insightful whitepaper.
Why then, are so many startups *so bad* at CREATING content for their audience?
Is it bad source material, bad measurement, or just plain being bad at content?
Whitney Durmick spent a half-decade running content for the Oracle startup accelerator and knows a thing or two about what clicks, connects, and converts.
After several months freelancing with Startup Hypeman, she recently joined our team as FT employee #1 as a Pitch & Content Artist.

Ever say to yourself, "I want to invest in startups?".
Even if you're a founder yourself, maybe you've had that moment of 'when I make it big, I'm gonna start investing in other founders'.
Chris Deutsch wants to demystify the process for you.
As founder of Lofty Angels, he's invested in over 150 founders, 80+ startups (75% by underrepresented founders), and experienced 5 exits.
He's also started the Lofty Syndicate which acts as a vehicle to invest in rounds alongside Lofty Angels, and an educational platform to help more people become angel investors.
He steps to the mic to share HOW to become an angel investor. He even shares how his college degree directly impacts him every day in an unexpected and comical fashion.
We had so much to cover that we couldn't fit it all into one episode, so this conversation is part 1, and our next episode will be part 2.

Going from zero to 1 is a beast.
But what comes after 1?
And how do you make sure what you're doing in the zero to 1 phase doesn't just work for the 'right now' but also sets you up for long-term success?
Ted Blosser learned that lesson the hard way.
After struggling to gather escape velocity and hovering in the low 6-figure MRR for literal years (where many told him that he should just give up), he had a light bulb moment that vaulted them past $1M and changed the roadmap for getting to $10M.
He steps to the mic to share what changed, how they approached growth differently in the post $1M climb, and the lessons he learned the hard way that you don't have to.
