One of the coolest places in the Hudson Valley bought a case of Kingbird on Thursday last week and reordered 2 cases today. 🥰.

Most "design agencies" are just two broke guys.

I also find that advanced scientific concepts are so hard to understand that not studying it in a formal setting is not enough. Like if you've never been forced to take an organic chem or advanced physics exam and apply all the concepts to solving a real problem, you probably.

I recommend everyone try to study advanced science at some point (I did 1 year of PhD). You gain a strong scientific instinct that allows you to make your own decisions and draw your own conclusions about things like Bryan Johnson's protocols, all the crazy health trend brain.

I like to do a lot of my reconnecting/biz dev calls around now. Can't recommend enough keeping in touch with your network as an agency founder.

Fascinated everyday by the sheer volume of people who go from something like an employer engagement manager at a non-profit to expert consultant in agency positioning. I actually respect the hubris.

Vegas tourism being down could be as simple as the proliferation of online gambling and sports betting.

As we grow our biggest opportunity is to outmarket our larger competitors. Can't win on ground game.

If you're an agency founder and marketing doesn't come naturally, fear not. It took me years for it to "click" and to understand how to do it. What a marketing strategy really means. And to stop lying to myself about how much effort it takes (a lot).

The fun thing about growing an agency is the compounding effect of good work and network. 1 person does not equal 1 client. They change jobs. We've had examples of 1 person being 4 clients (and we kept the previous client after the move).

New website is gonna have some custom icons and elements. How does this serve the business, you ask?. We sell design. And design is in the details. This is a detail that demonstrates our prowess and promise: Don't choose between high design and Shopify engineering.
