PR (public relations) can be an effective way to drive a lot of awareness around what you’re building, and help your team increase signups, lift sales numbers, or generate interest from investors. And unlike ads you might pay for, PR is earned media, which is free, and can feel more authentic because it comes from an unbiased source.

About a year and a half ago, we began brainstorming how we could scale our value-add services to reach our portfolio companies across the globe. Offering business development, talent, community, and a handful of other perks, to 135+ portfolio companies across various timezones, stages, and sectors can be a bit challenging.

I was the worst pizza delivery guy. Fraternity guys would chase after me as I was peeling out of their driveways after a delivery. Why? The sauce and cheese fell all to one side. I couldn’t help it. I also never got tips. Wende, my partner in our restaurant delivery business, always got tips. But she was beautiful, blonde, great smile, had personality, etc. And I secretly loved her. I couldn’t compete.

The MOST IMPORTANT RULE: Have a customer before you start your business.

A few months ago, I met with executives from Walmart, as part of a delegation visiting Israel, meeting with the brightest minds in the country. Participating in these meetings opened my eyes to the extraordinary world of logistics — a trillion dollar industry that connects the world, responsible for shipping some $19 trillion dollars worth of goods annually. Walmart, Amazon, Target, Gap and every retail business has to tackle hundreds of potential supply chain nightmares to deliver their products from the factory to their consumers’ doorsteps.

I probably started using LinkedIn sometime in 2010 primarily as another place where I could post articles from one of my blogs. At that time I had transitioned out of retail and into running my own business, so I wasn’t using it for the sake of networking or trying to find new jobs. Anyway, sometime between 2010 and today I started using LinkedIn more and despite being happily employed I’m still checking the app multiple times per day. So why do I do this, and why should&nbsp;you?
