I pass on a lot of companies where I like some things about the deal but have not reached conviction. I offer to stay in touch. 90% of founders don’t do this (I get it). But the ones that do, I always revisit the decision when they reach out - did I make the right decision, should I look again, can I be useful with intros or connections? Staying top of mind is an underrated founder superpower 🚀

I just audited our tech stack. Cancelled 3, fixed 2 that charged us too much, and noted 4 that we may want to cancel. It's a good time of year to review your software spend. Look for black friday deals for savings on annual plans for software that you rely on! ✨
