Looking to hire one person with maximum potential at Stackmatix.   

If you're someone who knows they want to become one of the best tech/startup marketers in world, then this is the role for you. 

I don't care how much marketing experience you have. I care how passionate you are and how quickly you can learn. I'll teach you everything I know as fast as I can and you'll make an impact immediately. 

You need to be fairly technical or modern marketing is not for you.

You'll work with me personally to scale amazing startups like:
CodeRabbit - helped scale from 0 to $500M valuation in 2 years
Shipday - just announced their $7M Series A
Pinwheel Kids' & Teens' Phone - scaling like crazy
RAPIDFORT - leader in container security

Previous clients include now unicorns like Figma, Kalshi, Invisible Technologies, Spring Health, and Eve.

Interested? Get a warm intro ideally or give me your best cold outreach. If you have marketing potential, you'll figure out how to get my attention. #hiring

I'm all for hustle, but let's not glorify unhealthy habits, which I'm seeing all too often.

Trust me, anyone who has worked with me knows I go hard and I'm terribly productive. 

Yet, I never sacrifice sleep. I eat well. I take care of my body. At least these days.

How else do you think I'm still going so hard year after year? I'm almost 8 years into running my current business, and trust me, I'm far from tired.

More energized than ever.

I wasn't always so good at this. Frankly at MightyHive, I burnt out in 3.5 years. That's how I learned my lesson.

Learn from my lesson and just get on my level now. 

Build yourself up, don't break yourself down.

Struggling with this? Give me a shout and happy to provide some guidance.

I'll say it publicly.

My biggest pet peeve running an 'agency' is getting treated as an outsider or lesser-than an employee. 

Getting 'fired' with no notice and for no reason.

Help companies scale from 0 to Series B, just for them to in-house to a more expensive and less qualified employee, just because 'that's what we're doing'. 

No re-negotiation, no attempt to find a way to keep working together.

No participation in the continued upside. Just thank you and goodbye, like I'm not grinding away here at 3:43AM here for my clients, being way more dedicated and loyal than most of their employees. Trust me, they are not online, and frankly you are probably not either yet.

To those that do stick with me, thank you and let's keep it going. Trust me, I care about your business like I work there. I know the pain of not succeeding with a startup -- that was the first thing I happened to do in my career -- and that's why it is my goal to make you never go through that. Never feel that way.

I don't spend time on demand gen. Trust me. I'm all-in on my portfolio. If we get new referrals, great, but I'm always optimizing to make sure me and the team have the bandwidth to give you the service you need to keep scaling economically.

Let's go to the moon. 🚀

Startups are hard

Personally:

- Made little money the first year or 2
- COVID wiped out 1/3 of our clients once we did get up to speed
- Had to wind down 2 business lines
- My cofounder & management team moved on

Could have quit. Instead, I run a 7 figure business with only 3 FTE's.

What's on your list?
