Thibault Louis-Lucas, known as Tibo, is a serial entrepreneur and the co-founder of Tweet Hunter and Taplio. However, Tibo's entrepreneurial journey was far from an overnight success. Prior to Tweet Hunter, he attempted to launch & scale two startups with little success.
His new approach was to launch 11 products, 1 every week or two, and see what sticks, i.e. what gets the most traction with users.
Once they figured out what worked, then the real work started.
Tibo and I discussed:
- How he recently sold his company and for how much
- His 250k loan from the French government
- His "failed" startups
- The entrepreneurial scene in France
- Why Twitter was crucial to their success
- What were some of the other products they shipped
- The importance of "personal branding" alongside building a company
- The rise of digital nomads & solopreneurs
- Why giving away a piece of the company was the best move they made
- The rise of AI
And so much more...
My Take: Failure isn't final, and success isn’t eternal. The key is to always progress, move forward and try new things. With the number of new tools available to entrepreneurs and online creators, it's never been easier to build. With that said, the standards by consumers for products have never been higher. The only way to ensure success is to try, try, & try again until something eventually sticks.
