About this episode

Philip Bahosh is ex-consultant turned entrepreneur. He’s the Founder of Magnitt, the leading startup and investment data insights platform. Over the course of building Magnitt, Philip has had to continuously listen to customers using data to evolve and grow his product offering.

Philip is a founder who has continuously operated lean with a focus on delivering customer value without fundraising aggressively. He’s cracked the world of branding as he’s led Magnitt to become the leading authority on venture and startups, without spending any marketing dollars. Data is at the core of how he makes decisions and builds his content marketing strategy. .

I heard Philip say:

  • Before you build, kill

  • Data is the underlying source for making decisions

  • Appreciate that some tough things are just part of the process

  • Use content to drive your brand awareness
