Is the "bootstrap or die" mentality actually killing your business growth potential?
Jordan Gal hosts entrepreneur Jesse Schoberg, co-founder of Drop-In Blog, a headless blogging platform that seamlessly integrates blogs into existing websites. Jesse, a nomadic founder currently between Bangkok and Europe, shares his journey from bootstrap mentality to embracing enterprise sales. After hitting a growth plateau at seven figures, Drop-In Blog pivoted their positioning and hired full-time marketing staff in Eastern Europe. "After a plateau for about a year, all of a sudden doing a demo doesn't sound so bad," Jesse admits, about his evolution from credit-cards-only to enterprise contracts. The conversation explores remote team building, the global talent arbitrage, and how Jesse discovered AI-powered SEO as their hook for LinkedIn growth. How do founders know when it's time to abandon their original playbook?
