Why is the VC narrative so dominant? Bryce Roberts, partner at Indie.vc, talks about why it's important to focus on generating revenue from the beginning. Brought to you by DixonAndMoe.com.

    My main takeaways:

    • Focus on profit from day 1

    • All these large companies started out very small with a narrow focus and small market

    • Focus on revenue before funding.

    • You don't need to solve an insanely big prblem and become a billionaire thats what VC's what you to do because to them, nothing else is important enough

    • Just ship, it doesn't need to be a billion dollar idea
