This is our talk from the 2018 Vevolution Festival where we spoke about the Top 10 Business Hacks to get your business off the ground. Struggle is a key theme in this presentation, as we share with you that it hasn't always been easy in our past ventures and even with BOSH! there are ups and downs. These ups and downs make everything worth it, you just have to put in the time and effort to succeed.
Hope you guys like the presentation! All the information, including books we've read, can be found on the last couple of slides.

5. “The Struggle is when you wonder why you
started the company in the first place.
The Struggle is when people ask you why you
don’t quit and you don’t know the answer.
The Struggle is when food loses its taste.”
6. “The Struggle is not failure, but it causes failure.
Especially if you are weak. Always if you are
weak.
Most people are not strong enough.
The Struggle is where greatness comes from.”
7. “As a startup CEO I slept like a baby. I woke up
every 2 hours and cried.”
Ben Horowitz
28. Dear So-and-So,
I know you're really busy and that you get a lot
of emails, so this will only take sixty seconds to
read.
[Here is where you say who you are: add one or
two lines that establish your credibility.]
[Here is where you ask your very specific
question.]
I totally understand if you're too busy to
respond, but even a one- or two-line reply
would really make my day.
All the best,
Tim
