Blast from My Startup Past

In 2011, I had the honor to be a speaker at the very first MicroConf at the Riveria Hotel in fabulous Las Vegas. The hotel is long gone but MicroConf is stronger than ever and offers global in-person and virtual events with the best entrepreneurs on the planet. Just look at the line up from the first conference and where they've gone!

  • Rob Walling - MicroConf, TinySeed, SaaS Playbook, many SaaS apps
  • Mike Taber - MicroConf, Moon River Software
  • Noah Kagan - AppSumo
  • Ramit Sethi - NYT best selling author, Netflix "How to get Rich"
  • Hiten Shah - Kissmetrics, Crazy Egg
  • Patric McKenzie - Bing Card Creator, patio11
  • Todd Garland - BuySellAds
  • Sean Ellis - Dropbox, LogMeIn, Hacking Growth
  • Andrew Warner - Mixergy.com


Thanks to Rob and Mike for including me in the first event and introducing me to such a great community. My own software company reached an exit point not long after but the startup mindset will never go away!
