My guest today is Jason Fried, the co-founder and President of 37signals, a privately-held Chicago-based company committed to building the best web-based tools possible with the least number of features necessary.
The topic is his book Rework.
In this episode of Trend Following Radio we discuss:
The first dollar Fried made online and other formative experiences Keeping business simple Making something more valuable than the dollars people give you The intimacy of exchanging money The idea of doing less than your competitors to beat them Building an audience The “real world” Why an MBA program might not teach you much about entrepreneurism Corporate structure Focusing on what will not change Zen and the moment of right now Not focusing too far into the future Fried’s experience with Jeff Bezos Idea of improvisation or “winging it” in businessJump in!
