The Physics of Startups
00:35:08 · Rob Snyder, RC
[00:35:08] S1: Yeah. So one is like if you think about marketing as a funnel and sales as something else, you're gonna be using different way, different things to analyze these different parts of the same factory. And so um uh, but also thinking of marketing as a funnel, you're not gonna like apply the theory of constraints to a funnel. It's just like, oh, here's the number of leads we get, and here's da-da-da, right? And you and this is just not how it's so so you don't you don't get to apply manufacturing thinking to that. And so you don't get all the benefit of a hundred years of manufacturing thinking about how to make things go faster and work better and eliminate waste if you don't use a factory kind of concept. [00:35:50] S0: Yeah, yeah. Well, um, Rob, let's uh we're gonna need to wrap here in a moment. Um you basically kind of gave the gave the takeaway a moment ago, but uh just to reinforce it, founder who is listening at this point, what should they do? Um, what would you tell them if you were looking at that right now? Like, what should they do as a result of starting to think about their case study as as a factory or excuse me, is their startup as a case study factory?

[00:35:50] S0: Yeah, yeah. Well, um, Rob, let's uh we're gonna need to wrap here in a moment. Um you basically kind of gave the gave the takeaway a moment ago, but uh just to reinforce it, founder who is listening at this point, what should they do? Um, what would you tell them if you were looking at that right now? Like, what should they do as a result of starting to think about their case study as as a factory or excuse me, is their startup as a case study factory? [00:36:18] S1: Um yeah, so uh there are basically two things, two things I want to beam into your brain. Uh thing one is pull and all the implications of pull. Thing two is the case study factory and tells you exactly where to focus right now. If you just do those two things and let those tell you what to do, then uh then you're by default gonna do the stuff to grow the fastest. And that's what I want you to do because I want you to break every damn record there is in growth. And so uh go do that.

[00:36:53] S0: Yeah, love it. Um and uh that's typically you mentioned this. Um any founder that's listening to this and is like trying to wrap their brain around it or thinking about like where's my uh where's my constraint, or maybe they know where their constraint is and they don't know how to attack it most efficiently. Um that's like typically your first uh session with like a founder that works with you. And so if you're if you're interested in working with Rob, um just a quick plug, drop me a note, RC at reframe bdb.com or um just yeah, reach out, go to the website robsnyder.org, and there's uh there's a button that you can click to fill out a form. Um anyways, agnostic of that. Hopefully this gives you everything that um you know you need to cause your startup to take off. Um and we'll look forward to hearing. We we get email. I love it when we get emails from time to time that are like, hey, we listened, we've been following Rob for a long time, and our startup just achieved major milestone. Those are really cool. So like send that, you know, drop it in the comments or no one sends that to me. [00:37:52] S1: Come on, send that to me too. You're getting all the love. Whatever. All right, yeah. [00:37:58] S0: Yeah, that's it's because I'm very approachable, Rob. Okay. All right, awesome. And we will uh yeah, so uh Linny Podcast will also drop that in the notes whenever it's live, but uh that that'll be coming out soon. Um, it's a big one, and we're we'll be excited to catch everybody here in a week. See y'all.
