From the editorial staff at VentureBeat – “because people send us stuff like this all day” – Jolie O’Dell and the team at VentureBeat bring you the video of “Sh*t startup people say”.
Here are our top 10 lines from the video:
1.) “The leading company in the blow-dryer only segment of the beauty industry..”
2.) “Pivot!”
3.) “And if it doesn’t work out, we’ll just pivot.”
4.) “We’re an Airbnb for coffee.”
5.) “SouthBy is so over.” “Are you going?” “Yeah.” “You?” “…Yeah.”
6.) “If you need me, I’ll be in the foosball room.”
7.) “I don’t really align myself with other entrepreneurs.”
8.) “Did we iterate?” “Yes.” “Did we execute?” “Yes.” “Then what went wrong?” “I have no idea.” “God! Pivot!”
9.) “We’re a lean startup!”
10.) “We don’t need salespeople.”
