    Thoughts On Being An Intrepreneur Within An Organization

    enSeptember 24, 2017

    Podcast Summary

    • From one-man team to VP: The intrepreneur's journeyStaying alive until the environment is favorable, being resourceful, and having a strong work ethic can lead to significant growth as an intrepreneur within an organization.

      Being an entrepreneur within an organization, also known as an intrepreneur, is a viable path to success. Patrick Gibbons, VP of VaynerSmart, is a prime example of this. He joined VaynerMedia as a one-man team in the Internet of Things division, which later evolved into the voice space. Despite initial challenges and a less-than-ideal start, Patrick persisted and eventually thrived within the company. His story serves as inspiration for those who have entrepreneurial spirit but aren't ready to leave their current organization. The key takeaway is that being an intrepreneur requires staying alive until the environment becomes favorable, being resourceful, and having a strong work ethic. It's not an easy path, but it can lead to significant growth and impact within an organization.

    • Exploring the voice space: a time for experimentationEmbrace the uncertainty and contribute to the ongoing exploration and innovation in the voice space

      The voice space is still in its early stages, and it's an exciting time to be involved as we explore new ways to interact and build capabilities within this emerging technology. The speaker's approach has been to keep overhead low and focus on building capabilities while keeping their group competitive. He sees the IoT space as a strategic area of growth and opportunity for new kinds of interactions. No one has all the answers yet, and best practices are still being established. It's a time for experimentation, hacking, and playing in this new system. So, if you're interested in the voice space, now is the perfect time to jump in and contribute to the ongoing exploration and innovation. Embrace the uncertainty and enjoy the journey.

    The Most Important Question In Business

    The Most Important Question In Business

    Here’s the problem most people run into when they create content online: They think they have to have something to say. So many of you aren’t putting out content online because you think you need to have the perfect message, or something “valuable” to share (based on your own arbitrary opinion). And what I’m telling you is, you will get more business if you put out literally anything. If you’re an auto dealer, you could put out a 5 min video every afternoon just recapping what happened in your day. If you’re a real estate agent, you could post updates on what your opinions are about the Super Bowl teams. Get on social media and tell your truth … it’s really that simple.

    Twilio: Jeff Lawson

    When Jeff Lawson co-founded Twilio in 2008, he had already been through a series of start-ups. Some succeeded, others fizzled out—but each provided insights that led him to build one of the most extensive communication platforms in business. Fueled by his frustration juggling customer calls while trying to run a surf and skate store in LA, Lawson realized he could use his coding skills and knowledge of cloud computing to help companies connect with customers. Twilio’s early communications technology quickly gained traction with developers at other start-ups like Uber, which used it to text riders that their car had arrived. Despite early skepticism from investors, Twilio eventually grew into a $4 billion business, with customers like Nike, Toyota, OpenAI, and Airbnb.

    Audio Episode 57 - Headwinds

    An airplane wing gains lift by taking off into the wind. This then cause the airplane to defy gravity and fly . . . an entrepreneurial metaphor if ever there was one. Interestingly, in my pilot days I once experimented with a downwind takeoff (on a very long runway) and could barely get off the ground. I quickly put the plane back on the runway and ended the experiment!

    Live Episode! Milk Bar: Christina Tosi (2019)
    For Christina Tosi, baking wasn't just a delicious childhood hobby—it was a daily creative outlet and a way to blow off steam. After college, she went to culinary school and honed her pastry technique at high-end restaurants in NYC. But she also craved the opportunity to make unfussy, nostalgic desserts like the ones she grew up eating. So in 2008, Christina opened her first Milk Bar bakery in the East Village, with the help of her mentor, Momofuku chef David Chang. Soon, people from around the country were calling her up, begging for her gooey pies, confetti birthday cakes, and pretzel-potato-chip cookies. Today, Milk Bar has spread to 15 locations, and reportedly brings in tens of millions of dollars a year. This show was recorded live at The Town Hall in New York City.
