Startups with Seoul Ep 5 - Clara Hong of Smore

Episode 5 of Startups with Seoul with Clara Hong of Smore hosted by Chang Kim and Aviram Jenik of Rabbit Ventures. Featuring practical tips to do business development in the US.

Main takeaways:
(1) On Embracing the Start-Up Journey:

"Start your startup right now because it's honestly going to be the path that has everything you're looking for in life. That is your calling. So stop thinking about stupid law school... Everything you're looking for is in the path of being a startup founder. You're gonna love every day of it."

(2) On the Importance of Networking and Momentum:

"You only need to have four meetings booked before you actually come to the US... and immediately after that, you have to start booking meetings for the week after... As founders, you always have to be the one who keeps your own momentum and drive going."

(3) On the Reality of Reaching Out and Experimentation:

"Tenacity is the only keyword... People would disconnect with me on LinkedIn, block me because I've messaged for too long... You have to have really thick skin. It's okay to feel down... but you have to pick yourself up tomorrow. Tomorrow is another day, and you have to start fresh."
