Five Interesting Things I Came Across This Week
Sup friends 👋🏼,
Crazy busy week (when is it not these days). No fluff - let’s roll into it 🙂
#1: 🚢 Turning around a company’s decline
I’ve followed Joel & Buffer’s story since inception - I remember Joel taking the time to meet me when I wanted to get advice on starting a startup when I was at university.
It’s easy to share when things are going well - not so easy the other way around.
Loved this thread of some of the strategies Joel shared to change the tide for his business.
We’ve been working to turn around a decline for a few years now at Buffer.
Last year everything finally came together, in 2023 we had our least decline in the past 4 years, and we’re now growing in 2024.
How did we do it? Here are some of our learnings:

A little different, but a fascinating thread - it’s a pretty unique city, especially compared to other capitals in Europe and its design.
Why is Madrid the capital of Spain?
Madrid is quite unique:
• No river
• Very recent
• Tiny when it became a capital

#4: 💁🏻♂️Why you should get a coach
I’ve been considering the benefits of having different coaches for different aspects of my life - this was a timely thread. It’s brought me closer to at least trialing a coach (at some point).
Hiring a coach changed my business.
And my life.But Jesse, what does a coach even do?
