Founder, Soshals | C... • 10h

Imagine being 25 and achieving everything that 99% of founders die trying. This guy did it. > spawn in London > drop out of college to build > build a social network from scratch > start SocialGO at age 21 > scale to 6 million users > youngest public-company CEO in Europe > still 25 years old But Alex? Far from settling down. Here's the rest of his crazy story: 2012 > starts LawPal > fix legal workflows with software > ship fast, iterate, exit > move to San Francisco > speedrun entrepreneurship 2014 > join Teespring as Director of Product > build creator tools before “creator economy” was a thing > again ship fast, iterate, exit > move to MasterClass as first product hire > zero product org, no systems, no nothing > build the entire thing from zero > ship with world-class instructors > scale revenue from $5M → $100M+ ARR > 20x growth in 3 years MasterClass becomes a cultural phenomenon. Silicon Valley realizes he wasn't a fluke. 2018 > VP Product at Bungalow > build systems, teams, acquisition engines > becomes friends with Sam Altman > start angel investing in visionary founders > join SparkLabs as Venture Partner 2021 > start AirOps > tiny team (under 5 people) > grind through early AI winters > build LLM workflows before they were trendy > raise $7M seed > Wing VC, Founder Collective, XFund join early > customers start posting insane results > Deepgram hits 24x traffic in 60 days > Webflow +40% traffic > AirOps becomes a weapon, not a startup 2024 > raise $15.5M Series A in 26 days > led by Unusual Ventures > board seat from Sandhya Hegde > investors speedrun the process > AirOps enters big-leagues mode > 37k → 1.5M traffic (Deepgram) > +40% traffic (Webflow) > +28% organic customers (Wyndly) > delivery speed doubles (Contact Studios) 2025 > $22.5M raised > 120+ investors > customers scaling faster than ever > founders in final form > AI workflows sharpened to a blade Alex Halliday for you, ladies and gentlemen. The guy who speedran entrepreneurship with no pedigree, without breaking a sweat. What's your excuse?

POV: You open your laptop. You ship product, not promises. You automate 3 workflows before lunch. Your AI agent closes a lead while you’re eating. Suddenly you're like: I'm not just building a startup. I'm building leverage. That’s what execution

The easier it becomes to develop a product, the more valuable it becomes to have marketing skills.

You don’t need another developer. You need a partner who actually gets what you’re building. Someone who can: Say “this feature is a distraction” Ship a working MVP in weeks, not quarters Automate your backend so you stop copy-pasting from Airtab
