@37signals is a very different kind of company:
→ They make tens of millions in profit each year
→ With fewer than 80 employees
→ No investors, no board
→ No growth goals
→ No experiments
→ No sales, no marketing spend
→ Teams are two max 2 people (1 eng, 1 design)
→ They prioritize gut over data
→ They prioritize profit over growth
→ They've been profitable for 24 years straight

🔸 The “Shape Up” framework for building products
🔸 The downsides of raising VC
🔸 Advice for bootstrapping your business
🔸 A peek at Once, their new product line
