Startup and investor mode

It’s been a great week of meetings and building at Secfi. We kicked off the week with a management team “offsite” and then had some team events. Then we spent the rest of the week doing in-person meetings hashing out some of our plans for the rest of the year and going forward.

Secfi is such a unique business in that I feel like I’m always switching between “fintech startup” and “investor” mode. For better or worse, we are a bit of both.

In some meetings, I have my startup hat on where we’re figuring out different marketing strategies to reach more users, or how to grow a new product line. In the next meeting, perhaps we’re discussing a new company that looks promising.

It’s a lot of fun and I feel fortunate to have the opportunity to have my hand in both. Of course it’s a double edged sword and there are complications as well.
