Andy Rosic @andy.social · 13/04/2026What I actually need is not a CRM. It's a reminder system that knows who I talked to and when, and taps me on the shoulder before things go cold. No pipeline stages. No dashboards. Just "hey, you haven't talked to Sarah in two weeks." Is that too much to ask? 120
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 13/04/2026I've set up HubSpot 3 times. Abandoned it 3 times Every time I end up back in a Google Sheet. Because Sheets has zero setup and zero opinions about how I should manage my relationships. But.. Sheets also has zero follow-up reminders. It just sits there holding info I forget to check. 100
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 08/04/2026Wha about ongoing - like “I need to email/call them in 5 days”? This is where my memory goes to die 300
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 08/04/2026The worst part is I liked these people. Wanted to do the work. And I keep wondering how many smaller versions of this happened that I never even noticed. Conversations that just quietly expired. Any other founders here who are great at the relationship part but terrible at the follow-up admin? 211
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 08/04/2026Lost a $15K deal last year. Not because the pitch was bad. Because I forgot to follow up. The calls went great. They needed a few weeks. I said sure. Then I got regular-busy and..nothing. When I reached back out: "We allocated that budget. Can revisit in 6-12 months." Gone. 120
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 07/04/2026There will always be a place for investment. But, as Lior points out and I've witnessed, building like you won't raise creates a great company (then you can decide if you need more $ to scale or not) 220

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 03/10/2025Unlike Starlink’s managed broadband, Spacecoin’s “Starmesh” aims to build a tokenized, censorship‑resistant internet. If it works, permissionless connectivity could literally reach for the stars and maybe 👽. More importantly 👇 130

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 12/07/2025Just built a really elegant 'automation' using google sheets, some classic 'excel' formulas, and just a smidge of app script. Super fun. I almost forgot about the powerful tools we've had forever (pre-AI)! #vintage #automation #founders #startups #google 091

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 17/06/2025The best startup advice I ever got came from an outdoorsman. "You can't rush the fire. But you can't let it die either." Some problems need time to heat up before you can work them out. Stop forcing solutions. Start tending them. #founders #startups #patience #craftsmanship 4586
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 16/06/2025Your competitor is copying features. You should be copying *processes* How does a chef develop new dishes? How does an architect solve space problems? The method matters more than the outcome. #founders #process #thinking #innovation #startups 3261
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 15/06/2025Every 7-figure founder I know still makes things w their hands. Woodworking. Cooking. Gardening. Something analog Your brain needs texture that pixels can’t provide. The solutions hiding in that clay might solve your biggest business problem. #founders #creativity #analogthinking 68210
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 14/06/2025The best product ideas don't come from market research. Its Sat mornings in the garage. Doodling mindlessly. That weird convo w your neighbor. Analyze competitors, but don't miss the obvious solution. data lies. intuition doesn't. Trust the idea that nags at 2am #founders #startups #creativity 2334
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 12/06/2025No one cares that you added AI. As a business, saying that you have "added AI" to your software is like saying "we now have a mobile app." If anything, it makes your customers think, "How did they not have this before?" #genai #strategy #founders #startups 7212
Reposted by Andy RosicAndy Rosic @andy.social · 08/05/2025Our team mantra: Automate the redundant, spend time on the creative/difficult, and ship it sooner than you're comfortable with. I.e., get delightful solutions into the people's hands who need them right away. (And let them tell you if it relieves the pain.) #founder #startups #bootstrapping 1292
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 09/06/2025I suppose if it’s not published and not fed into the AI then it won’t know that info. 🤷🏻♂️ 010
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 08/06/2025I’m doing something similar. The wrinkle is that candidates are lying on their resumes which gets them into the interview flow - and then we waste time there. But all the things you mentioned above are happening for sure! 020
Andy Rosic @andy.social · 04/06/2025Like all things, it takes more time and focus. But the good news is that AI can make it faster. No more excuses!

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 04/06/2025I'm all for moving fast and getting real customer feedback ASAP But shipping software to production at even minor scale with security vulnerabilities is a recipe for disaster.

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 04/06/2025(1) You can allow Claude/chatGPT to read your GitHub and evaluate for security issues - they're pretty good at calling them out (less good at solving them) (2) Some of the no-code tools, like Lovable, have recently added security checks into the workflow. Use it! 👇 140

Andy Rosic @andy.social · 03/06/2025From what I know, yes. I use a paid AI plan and Claude’s default is to NOT train the model with my data. Is anything *really* safe these days? I doubt it. 😭 110
