• Read this on Twitter ->
• Read this on LinkedIn ->

Without further ado, lets doola it and dive in

Mission ????

• Talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to unlock the potential of human entrepreneurship and democratize access to the US financial ecosystem by empowering 1M founders globally to turn their dream idea into their dream US business.

@doolaHQ Lowlight ????

• Our website went down twice this week means prospective and current customers could not get started or access their documents via the dashboard. We have implemented more rigorous testing and alerting to prevent this from happening in the future.

@doolaHQ Highlight ????

• New SWAG came in (all T-Shirts + Sweaters have QR codes on the back). Excited to start handing this out to grow the doolian army in NYC, and globally

Personal Highlight ????

• “Personal Highlight” because it’s from my personal account but this account is being used to help build LLC branding for @doolaHQ (as you can see from ample usage of the word “LLC” ????): hit 20K followers on @linkedin ????

Personal Lowlight ????

• Average players want to be left alone. Good players want to be coached. Great players want to know the truth. Grateful to have co-workers & friends who, even if they know it “might not be positive” are willing to share feedback. But on me to act upon it.

Thanks & Kudos ????
