#2054 What makes you “Backable”

Startup Stories - Mixergy - A podcast by Andrew Warner - Fridays

I recently read the book written by today’s guest. It’s called Backable: The Surprising Truth Behind What Makes People Take a Chance on You. I thought it was incredibly helpful because he gave clear steps for how to be “backable,” the type of person that people like, that they want to put their money or careers behind. I’ve seen so many of these people here in San Francisco that have that “it quality.” We’ll talk about what that is and examples of how people use techniques to become it. Suneel Gupta is the author; he’s also the co-founder of Rise which was acquired by One Medical.
