Ehsan's Growth Commentary
Most DevTools founders get distracted from Events & Conferences. My recommendation: build repeatable systems before hiring specialists. The companies reaching $10M ARR through Events & Conferences all share this pattern.
The first 90 days of Events & Conferences for DevTools at Series C: weeks 1-2 audit and baseline, weeks 3-6 first experiments, weeks 7-12 double down on winners. Do not skip the baseline step.
