When I first started, I thought that you had to be unique to succeed in a market and you had to be like the first mover in order to really succeed. But later on, I realized once the market is crowded, it means the product market fit already exists. If they're not paying, it means that something is wrong. If you want the equation of sales, sales is equal timing times trust. Timing and trust is either equal to zero or one.
This is 20 Growth with me, Harry Stebbings. Now, stay on 20 Growth. We dive into an incredible growth story. Guillaume Mubache bootstrapped Lempire from founding to now over $30 million in annual recurring revenue, and he did this through an incredible content flywheel unlike any other. He also built this incredible microbrand in his vertical, and today, He opens the playbook on content creation, content distribution, brand, sales, the sales equation, and so much more. This is a very tactical and granular show, which are really always my favorites to do, and Guillaume was incredible. But before we dive into the show today, one of the easiest investment decisions I have made over the last three years is investing in 11X. They're digital workers.
