The Verci Founder Retreat
Went to a founder retreat where I met creatives like @downloadlos whose perspective on apps was fascinating. The artistic side of the grind — making content and viral products to gather attention.
Went to a founder retreat hosted by Verci. Met some of the most creative people I've encountered in tech.
There was this guy @downloadlos on X whose perspective on apps was fascinating. He doesn't just build products, he creates experiences. He thinks about attention and virality from day one.
The Artistic Side of the Grind
What struck me was how artistic these founders were. They weren't just grinding on features and metrics. They were making content. Building viral products. Treating attention as the first product, not an afterthought.
There's something powerful about surrounding yourself with people who see building differently than you do.
What I Took Away
Distribution isn't just marketing. It's part of the product. The founders who get this are the ones who break out.
Find your tribe. Go to events. Meet people who push your thinking.
