Description
Today, my guest is Rob Walling and Rob is committed to doing things differently.
Rob is best known for his leadership in the world of bootstrapped software-as-a-service businesses. He is the founder of Drip, MicroConf, and most recently TinySeed. He's also the host of Startups for the Rest of Us and the author of Start Small, Stay Small.
Rob has chosen, from the beginning, to do things differently—and the reason is his values. His values led him to realize that he could build a business without playing by everyone else's rules—and that's made him a leader for thousands of others who are looking to do things differently too.
I talk with Rob about the throughline that weaves his different ventures together, the values that define his work, how his community and events are a reaction to the "standard" in his field, and how he views his role as a leader. Plus, I ask him how he's ensuring his values continue to play out as his community rapidly expands.
