A Tiny Bootcamp
As an engineer building a startup, it’s hard to spend time focused on sales and marketing. I want to build stuff instead. While in the entrepreneurship center at MIT, I picked up a few tricks and tools for doing startup sales. I’ve learned a few more since then and made a five-part Tiny Bootcamp for founders. Each part is a video less than 2 mins long.
