Tried to get a badge for #sxsw
“A coupon code is required to purchase this item.”
“One of the items you’re trying to purchase can only be purchased if you have a coupon.”
Tried to see what a hotel might cost…

Still pumped for #sxsw and planning. It will be a non-bird-site #sxsw2024 which will be odd considering my first was #sxsw2008 https://fudge.org/archive/the-taco-thesis/

I still have no idea how #soundcloud discovery works but I think there are promotion bots that share with other promotion bots and then someone mistakenly clicks 🤷♂️ https://soundcloud.com/jaycuthrell/popular-tracks

A quick message from Lida:
With 18 years building, marketing, and scaling products at startups, I work with founders and leaders stuck between where they are and where they need to be. I help you cut through the noise, make sharper decisions, and get your team executing with clarity instead of chaos.
Most founders mistake complexity for strategy. They keep adding when they should be subtracting. When I'm brought in, the team is usually doing a lot right, and the real issue is focus and direction. I diagnose what's actually going wrong across product, positioning, and execution, then reset direction and get everyone aligned around one clear path forward that will lead to growth.
A bit of what I've done: I was the first PM on a fintech product that hit 10,000+ users within months, built a national incubator that supported over $500M in startup funding, and led teams at 23 Design before it was acquired by frog (the design team behind Apple’s first products). I've spoken at Google, Microsoft, and LinkedIn, etc.
