The best way to move from corporate to a startup? Attend startup events. This week at the Superconnectors event several startups were sharing an ask to specfically recruit from corporate. My point is, if you want to move from corporate to a startup or a scaleup attending events like this is your best bet. There is nothing like F2F connection.

Every 2.1 days I have a service provider reach out to me with this ask: 𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘱 𝘮𝘦 𝘮𝘦𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘱𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥 𝘤𝘭𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴? It's a fine ask. I somewhat admire the hustle. But I just don't have enough hours in the day to help. But I have a hack. Ready? GO TO WHERE THEY HANG OUT The avg startup that attends Enterprise Rising Conference, the startup event that I run, is doing $960k ARR, has raised $2.1m, and will close their next round in the next 9 months. If you want to be the first person the startup calls when they close their next $12m series A, then come hang out with a few hundred founders and build some real relationships. It's much better than emailing me. Trust me. I'd just slow you down. Details in the comments below ⤵
