    First 100 Customers

    As a technical founder, wearing the "builder" hat feels comfortable. But there is another hat just as critical to your survival: the sales hat. Getting your first 100 customers is messy, unpredictable, and downright uncomfortable for people who prefer to be in a flow state while writing code. In this episode, we break down the 5 core customer acquisition strategies famously mapped out by Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI and former President of Y Combinator). We look at why the most successful startups focus heavily on direct sales conversations, and we unpack the 5 critical mistakes founders make that kill deals before they even start. The headlines can keep their unicorns. You’ve got real work to do. If you’re out there in the trenches building right now, hit Subscribe, leave a comment with your biggest sales hurdle, and share this with a founder who needs to step out of the code and start selling.

    Customer Discovery

    Should you spend weeks talking to users, or should you just put your head down and build? While tech giants and Y Combinator’s Paul Graham fiercely defend customer discovery as the ultimate startup cheat code, plenty of founders dismiss it as a complete waste of time. In this premiere episode of Chapter Zero, we uncover the main misconceptions about customer discovery, map out the mistakes that leave founders feeling as though they "betrayed" their audience, and share actionable best practices for finding your competitive advantage. The headlines can keep their unicorns. You’ve got real work to do. 📚 Resources Mentioned: The Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick (The gold standard book on how to talk to customers and figure out if your business idea is good when everyone is lying to you).
