Yaniv Bernstein, Chris Saad
About this episode

In today's fast-paced digital world, capturing and retaining attention is the most valuable currency for startups. But how can you thrive in a hypercompetitive landscape where rejection is the default response?

  • Leveraging the seven triggers of attention at different stages to stand out.
  • Recognizing the growing value of attention and making every second count.

  • Avoiding common mistakes founders make in seeking attention.
