Rob Fitzpatrick

Rob Fitzpatrick is a tech entrepreneur of 10 years, obsessed with the question of how to get better information from customers before we've committed to building everything. Originally a programmer far more comfortable behind a screen than in a meeting, he was forced into figuring out enterprise sales at his first startup, where he learned that it's not as straightforward as the books tend to claim. He's raised funding from YCombinator and other top investors in the US & UK, has built products used by brands like Sony and MTV, and has bootstrapped profitable businesses with not outside investment. Over the past few years, he's also worked with thousands of other entrepreneurs and investors to help them learn the same skills and lessons that were originally so difficult to discover.
