Tristan Walker explains how to find your next venture by looking at what apps you actually use. He identified Twitter and Foursquare as companies worth joining by noticing how much time he spent on them, and suggests others do the same with their phone to spot what matters.
To like how I actually, like, realized Twitter and Foursquare were companies that I want to work for. Again, it starts with product, right? I was fortunate enough that I was able to identify those, like, well before anyone else. And it's only because I felt that those two services were fundamentally changing my life, right? Twitter, at least on communication. Foursquare, much in the same vein. And it allowed me to identify the use of those services before other people started using them. One thing that I tell a lot of folks who come to me and ask me these questions, like, how do I know which company I want to work for? Or how do I know what startup to create? I just tell them, look at their phones, and you'd be amazed by even on that first page of your phone, the types of things that you use that other people do not. And you start to get a very clear picture about what you're most passionate about and what you have a view on that other people do not. Right? And the reason why that's so important is because, number one, it allows you to identify things before anybody else does, which allows you to be introduced to those companies at times when no one else is trying to compete for those same roles. Right? And I've been very, very lucky to be able to find those things as a result of that. So, you know, think about things you already use and the things that actually make your life better.
