Hi all –
At Drift’s annual Kickoff last week, I told the team we started Drift for three reasons:
- To make buying frictionless and be the new way businesses buy from businesses.
- To right the wrongs we made at other companies and build solutions for today’s buyers.
- To create an enduring, equitable company that is a role model for companies globally.
We have a massive opportunity. We have a shot at creating a history that will outlive us.
So how are we going to continue to make our dreams a reality? How do we win in 2021?
We focus on product, our go-to-market strategy, and our team.
How will your company win in 2021? Text me at +1-212-380-1036 to let me know.
