Everything Tom Winter said on any show that made the record, most notable first. Each card names its show and opens the statement there.
Winter: 99% of market innovation is gluing tools together, not R&D
“99% of the market. It's not R and D it's just like gluing different things together. And developing something new.”
Winter: Never outsource an operational function before making it predictable internally
“The problem that I see with many startup founders is that they want to outsource everything that they can before they make it predictable. And it will just not work out. Like if you find an agency that like will do certain things For you, they will not probabl…”
Winter: Design SaaS pricing models that encourage "abuse" rather than arbitrary limits
“When I'm looking at pricing of a startup I love to say like, encourage abuse instead of limiting the usage. And I actually mean that because like, if you, if the person will on the other side will see the value out of the tool and will abuse your tool, that me…”

Winter: B2B tools targeting non-technical local teams require full product localization
“If you're going into sales, if you have a product in SaaS that it goes to sales and somebody as an end user doesn't know English because they're in Poland, they're in France, they're in Czech Republic. And they will use your tool on daily basis and there's no …”
Winter: A human-AI "cyborg method" produces the best content
“So the method that, for example, I used is kind of something that is called cyborg method. So a combination of a person and a computer writing together. So like I can write with GPT-free an article, but like we have to simultaneously work on an article. And on…”
