CEO to shareholders and team members every month.

The apostles were high energy, relentless, confident and bullish co-founders that got seed funding from the Holy Spirit after Jesus mentored them!

..and they commanded high growth in their startup ministries. đŸ”„đŸ”„đŸ”„đŸ”„đŸ”„đŸ”„ https://twitter.com/OreEni_ibukun/status/1227029065451868160
Paul is one apostle I like to call the coconut head founder.

Brave. Confident. Resourceful. Fire Brand. Technical. Lean advocate. He always wrote letters (from anywhere in the world) to believers that capitalized on Faith, Hope and Love.

Once, he left to establish another..
...startup. He put Apollos (COO) in charge. After a while, team members had a divide within the company.

Some chose Paul. Others chose Apollos. Paul (CEO) wrote to them again “I planted this startup, Apollos watered it, but God’s eternal VC funding give the increase”
And that diffused the situation. I remember when Chief Paul took on, and mentored another young co-founder, Timothy.

He wrote letters to Timothy to admonish him on how lonely the startup journey can be. Paul gave him 2 solid pieces of advice to him.
First: “Guard the truth that has been entrusted to you by the Holy Spirit”.

In other words, “You see this seed funding, use it careful to find product market fit”.

Second: “Have nothing to do with stupid, senseless controversies & avoid men of corrupt mind & fake faith”
In other words, “Don’t be caught in the web of trying to show off, generate false numbers on your investment reports to make folks believe you’re growing 10x. Instead, till the soil month-on-month, establish the foundation of a formidable customer retention strategy & funnel” 😎
Build your product. Don’t be swayed by the milestones of other startups that started the same time with you.

Continually seek advice from your number 1 investors (your customers).

Reminds me of when OG founder, Apostle Peter said “Like newborn babies, crave pure spiritual...
milk, so that by it you may grow up in your salvation”

In other words, “Keep re-inventing yourself as a founder and a startup, crave the expertise of your niche day by day, so that you may grow & nail both quality & distribution for your startup”

Anways, things are not this....
...straightforward sha. There are market forces & then evil forces that will bruise, but also refine you.

Embrace them & keep marching forward like the apostles. One day, one day, you’ll exit & say “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race”. đŸ˜…đŸ”„đŸ’Ż
