Sometimes the best way to sell a horse is to say, 'Horse for Sale. '
~Jay Abraham
I think about this quote a lot

The current PLG data is pretty sobering.
3-5% of SaaS website visitors sign up
30-40% of those new accounts activate
So for every 10,000 people that visit your site, only 90-200 really experience the value of your product. Not good.
I see a new playbook emerging 🧵

1/ Only 1% of venture-backed founders are Black.
I'm one of them.
On May 31, I sat crying next to my fiancee as she drove us from Santa Cruz to SF. I was overwhelmed by George Floyd's death and ashamed by how little I'd done to support the Black community.
That changes today.

Some days are harder than others. Some years too. @glusman reminded me the other day that the key to progress is building *momentum*.
