In this concise monologue, Nick Perry argues that an entrepreneur should only attend three kinds of meetings: one to set the vision, one to close a deal when needed, and one to remove a roadblock. All other meetings—such as those debating font sizes or website color shades—are operational details that belong to the team or a COO. The entrepreneur’s role is to define direction, generate momentum, and make decisive calls that no one else can make. Perry urges viewers to share this insight with anyone who needs to refocus on true entrepreneurial responsibilities.

There are only 3 types of meetings an entrepreneur should take: one to set the vision, one to close the deal if necessary, and one to remove a roadblock. Everything else is someone else's meeting. So if you're still in meetings that discuss font sizes or debate which shade of green looks better on the website, then you're not being an entrepreneur, you're being a COO. Your team's job is to manage every detail. Your job is to set the direction, create momentum, and make the calls that no one else can make. So share this with someone who needs to see it.
