from 10 Minutes or Less, with Ali Rohde · host Ali Rohde

Guillermo Rauch has been building @VercelHQ for more than 10 years. But talk to him and you'd never know it. He seems to have the energy of a 19-year-old Stanford dropout who just went through YC.In just 8 minutes, Guillermo shares his frameworks for leading Vercel, why he's anti 1-on-1s, the need to be "terminally online," and how he creates unstructured blocks in his day to be on Twitter, using the product, and doing customer support. We also touch on the future of Vercel, including whether he one day wants to take Vercel public.Most podcasts are an hour or more.
