Jason Fried talking at Business of Software 2008
Neil has posted Jason Fried’s talk from the Business of Software 2008 online and I recommend you take a look.
It would be easy to be inspired by Jasons talk and think you could just replicate his approach and create your own successfull business but one of the things that the video highlighted for me was that whilst books, videos and courses can teach you lots of things about how to run a company it is important to define your own business flavour and not just copy the approach of others. I don’t totally believe in the 37signals approach, I don’t neccessarily have the same objectives and his approach is very specific to the people that they employ so it wouldn’t make sense for me to take his ideas and use them for my own business and although I might get away with it for a while eventually the truth would catch up with me and the business would get very messy.
The video is very watchable, full of helpful ideas and it was interesting to hear how things work at 37signals – go watch it now!
