Startup Mentality for Companies That Don't Want to Grow

Move fast and break nothing. Our approach to innovation.

Startup Without the Start

Everyone wants to be like a startup. Fast, innovative, disruptive. We say: why?

Typical Startup

  • Works 80 hours a week
  • Looking for investors
  • Grows at any cost
  • Usually fails

Our Approach

  • Works 0 hours a week
  • Doesn’t want investors
  • Doesn’t grow at all
  • Can’t fail (does nothing)

Key Differences

Pivot

Startups pivot when something doesn’t work. We don’t pivot because we don’t do anything.

Funding

Startups look for Series A, B, C. We look for Series Zzz (sleep).

Exit

Startups dream of an exit. We already exited. From the office. Permanently.

Culture Fit

We’re looking for people who:

  • Have no ambitions
  • Don’t want to change the world
  • Love doing nothing

Conclusion

Startup mentality is exhausting. Try the anti-startup approach.
