My guest today is Gokul Rajaram. It is hard to find someone who has been as successful in all three of building, operating and investing.
He is known as the 'Godfather of Adsense', having built the foundation of Google's advertising business. He then exited his start-up to Facebook and had an amazing career at Facebook, Square and now at Doordash.
He is also an investor supporting entrepreneurs globally. He sits on the boards of exceptional companies.
Gokul and I had a deep conversation on product, team and company building, investing and of course Blockchain.
- Characteristics of excellent early stage founders
- Areas where founders need help most
- The most important elements in building a product
- Use of different tool sets in marketing
- Maintaining the early-stage culture along the lifetime of a company
- The point at which you know you hit product-market-fit
- The most exciting part of crypto
- Learnings from sitting on boards of exceptional companies
- Gokul's productivity hacks in his daily schedule
Please enjoy my fascinating conversation with Gokul Rajaram.
