How I learned to talk about WeRemote.eu during Y Combinator Startup School sessions
I signed up to Y Combinator Startup School with WeRemote.
I'm putting in weekly status reports, watch some of the lectures, and I only missed a single session so far.
During each session I have to talk about the platform and describe it.
It's like an investor pitch.
What's funny is that neither myself, nor a many of the founders I talk to manage to keep the presentation short and concise.
We all start giving an origin story of ourselves.
And that's not a bad! Many are technical founders. Software developers, turned freelancers, turned entrepreneurs. Most of them are scratching the proverbial personal itch. This is why they identify with the product and they first talk about themselves. They want to get to talk about their problem and the solution to their problem is the product they're building.
I recently got the chance to present WeRemote in two ways, and I learned that it's very easy to talk about your product in a detached way, if you can attach a set of values to it.
They can be personal values, too.

If you're wondering why, it's because LinkedIn's algorithm is a poor gatekeeper and stifles posts to its own liking. So I'm pulling out my content from LinkedIn and other platforms that act as gatekeepers.
