We got an award for my favorite thing Industry Dive is good at! Thx to my cofounders @seangriffey and @esd for being so damn good at what they do, and most of all to the talented people that chose to take a chance on us. You are what make it fun to come into work every day – at Virginia, USA

Replying to @ryanwillumson @industrydive
the podcast was giving you a compliment you guys built a great business Our point was that it's a straightforward, simple business (not rocket science/cutting edge tech) why the bunched panties?

Every few years, some B2C players think they can come into B2B and teach us yokels how they do things in the big city. Those of us who live and breath in niche markets laugh...and then bury them.

I just listened to the 8/11 episode of My First Million with @thesamparr and @shaanvp in which they “broke down” B2B media and Industry Dive. Put simply, it was an uninformed and shitty take. The entire episode is littered with factual inaccuracies as well as strategic ones.

B2C being smarter than B2B isn’t a new take. But when they jump in, they don't know how the markets work. They don't know where to find the money when it isn't programmatic ads. They don't know how to find a real audience. Turns out, B2B is actually hard.

Next time, serve your audience better by talking about the intricacies involved in our space. Or if that’s too hard to do, take the easier route. Start a B2B media company and sell it for $500 million in 10 years. Go get em, sharks.

We are a long way from Jan 2012, when we started Industry Dive. But hot damn has it been a good run. Big news for the company today. A couple thoughts (1/x) axios.com/2022/07/19/industr…

Last and certainly not least, I’m so appreciative to everyone that has worked for Industry Dive both past and present. You make this place special. I feel privileged to work with the people I do. I’d put our team up against any in media. iykyk

I’d be lying if I said I pictured this business becoming this big, but inch by inch, we got there. The best part, though? Now I see it being much bigger and impactful. If you zoom out, we are just getting started.
