Key Takeaways
Instead of renting your reputation to advertisers, use your distribution to launch and own the backend products and services to capture more of the value chain.
The most successful modern business formula is combining capital and distribution with a 'killer operator' who has a high compounding rate of learning.
Look for 'off-path' talent—people who may not fit the traditional high-achiever academic mold but are willing to take risks and run through walls to get results.
