Mission 🔮

• Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to unlock the potential of human entrepreneurship and democratize access to the US financial ecosystem by empowering 1M founders globally to turn their dream idea into their dream US business.

@doolaHQ Lowlight 🫤

• We didn't have consistent UTM tracking and that is leading to messy data in terms of revenue attribution. We are doing a sweep of our tracking to ensure we can have crystal clear data tracking going forward.

@doolaHQ Highlight 😄

• LLC vs C-Corp content (450K views) really resonated and helped drive customer, partnership and investor inbound

Personal Lowlight 🫤

• Have been too scattered with my time and context switching means lack of impact by not going deep enough into tasks. Going to re-design my calendar using Paul Graham's maker/manager time concept to more effectively use timeboxing.

Personal Highlight 😄

• Went to my second @PitchandrunNYC run last week (great way to meet other founders/investors in NYC + have a system to run once a week). Despite not actively running much for past year (mostly weights, HiiT, and 12-3-30), was able to hold sub 8 min mile.

Thanks & Kudos 🎉
