Apply to Speedrun and you get to work closely with our entire team, including Josh
Don't Build Alone
As a @speedrun partner, some of my favorite conversations with founders starts with: “here's a thing i'm stuck on...”
Maybe that thing is pricing. Maybe a promising customer has gone quiet. Maybe the founders are hiring their first salesperson and trying to oks like.
Working these things through with founders is one of my favorite things about this job.
At Speedrun, we want to be your earliest backers and work alongside you through those decisions. You get our time, our attention, and a team of world class operators who can help you work through what’s blocking you.
Building something great is hard - don't feel like you have to do it alone. Let us work with and support you on the journey ahead.
SR008 applications close this Sunday at midnight.
If you’re building, we'd love to hear from you. Application link below

Mike Bellin, Partner and U.S. IPO and Capital Markets Advisory Leader, at @PwC, on IPO readiness: “The best time to get IPO-ready is long before you need to be. Readiness is what turns a market window into an actual deal." 📈 #LATechWeek

Ben Horowitz's message to early-stage founders on betting on yourself, the doubts that do the most damage, and why fear means you're doing it right:
"Your job is to make your bet pay off. You believed in yourself enough to do it. There are gonna be many times when you question on that belief, but that gets you nothing."
"The doubts are gonna be there. Ignore the doubts. The worst doubts aren't the ones people put on you. It's the ones that you put on yourself. Every entrepreneur has them."
"I spent a lot of time with Mark Zuckerberg when he was 22 years old and he had a tremendous doubt about whether he was gonna make it."
"It's not what you feel. It's what you do. You're gonna feel scared. If your guts aren't boiling, you're not even trying at this thing."
