Ep. 154 Nathan Freystaetter

Key Takeaways:

1️⃣ Data is your untapped goldmine if you know how to ask “So what?”
Most companies sit on a mountain of data but fail to turn it into direction. Nathan shares how to stop chasing vanity metrics and start extracting actionable insights that fuel real growth.

2️⃣ Your biggest friction isn’t the market. It’s your mindset and messy processes.
From people protecting bad data to outdated systems sabotaging sales, founders must uncover internal bottlenecks before chasing external success.

3️⃣ Sales is a skill. Stop winging it and start training like a founder athlete.
Nathan opens up about being a data-native founder learning how to sell. His vulnerability and book list is a wake-up call. Selling your vision is just as vital as building it.
