“Startups are somewhere between completely impossible and very, very, very, very hard.”
That's @parkerconrad, CEO of @Rippling, on the first episode of Long Strange Trip.
Parker's got one hell of a story. Violently fired by David Sacks from Zenefits. Character assassinated in the press. Everyone (including me) thought he was done. Then he built a $17B company in the exact same space.
In this episode, Parker talks about turning your darkest professional moment into rocket fuel. How he keeps a 4,000-person scaleup moving at startup speed. Why he he's hired over 100 ex-founders. And what it's really like when someone plants a spy inside your company.
This isn't your typical founder story. It's raw, it's real, and there are some serious lessons buried in the drama.
I hope you enjoy it.

The future will be full of more small businesses.
After seeing this week’s updates from OpenAI, the pace they’re moving with GPT-4o, Google’s AI Overviews for search and DeepMind’s Project Astra, it’s made me even stronger in my conviction about the future.
2006 - @bhalligan and I founded HubSpot when it was really hard to start a business and scale it—especially if you were selling to other small businesses.
2016 - Thanks to advancements in computer processing, software, open source, mobile, and social later, starting a business became easier. But scaling? Still hard.
2024 - We’re creating a future where businesses are powered by AI to make it easier to start AND scale them without the need for bigger budgets.
The key word here is easy. The future isn’t just about helping businesses grow, but making it easy.
When I look at GPT-4o’s coding capabilities, the promise of AgentAI to actually automate work—and the availability of these tools—will truly create more thriving businesses. It’s what I’m hoping to do with agent.ai, and what HubSpot will bring to millions of businesses.
SMBs are already the backbone of global economies. With AI, they could also become the legs running us all toward an exciting future. (Yes, I know analogies are not my strong suit. Don't worry, I’m keeping my day job).
Soon, we’ll not just have more small businesses and startups, but more that can scale and grow.
That's a future worth looking forward to.

In 2009, Hubspot was losing 7% of their customers per month.
They had sold 47% of their company in the Series A and every VC said you cannot build a large business serving SMBs.
They were wrong.
@bhalligan & @dharmesh built @HubSpot into a $28BN public company with 7,000 employees and 191,000 customers.
