How they build

Jakob Greenfeld avatarJakob Greenfeld

  • Act without asking for permission — most of his wins came from just shipping.
  • Launch many small, cheap experiments and let the market tell you which to keep.
  • Mine data (marketplaces, newsletters, filings) to find business opportunities others overlook.
  • B2B services and distribution often beat building yet another SaaS product.
  • The bar is low: most competitors barely try, so consistent effort stands out.

Marko Saric avatarMarko Saric

  • Write honest, opinionated content instead of buying ads.
  • Take a clear stance against surveillance-based adtech.
  • Grow slowly and stay independent.
  • Talk to the community directly and transparently.
