Founder Fridays: Confessions of a recovering MRR-obsessed startup
from Scale or Die · host Dave Rogenmoser
As a software startup, you can be focused on a lot of things: customers, revenue, churn, or even competitors. The focus you decide on helps dictate both the culture and direction of your business. At Proof, we recently made a paradigm shift — going from an MRR-obsessed mindset to a customer-focused one. Dave chimes in on his rationale for this change, and the initiatives he’s taking to build this focus into all parts of our business. We're excited to have you along for Season 1 of #ScaleOrDie.
