SUMMARY:Starting Over: How and Why One Founder Is Building Software Without
  Raising After His Last Company Crashed 
DESCRIPTION:For founders building software who are debating whether to rais
 e money\, stack services\, or do both\, this talk is a honest look at what
  happens when you get that balance wrong. After riding one venture-backed 
 rocket ship into the ground\, Brad almost repeated the same playbook befor
 e choosing a different path: using services to fund a new product\, withou
 t pretending services were just a bridge to “real” software revenue. Y
 ou’ll hear why so many teams fall into the services trap—either giving
  away work to drive adoption or quietly becoming a services company that s
 till acts like a SaaS startup—and how to spot the early warning signs in
  your own business. You’ll walk away with a clearer way to think about f
 unding your product\, setting expectations with your team and customers\, 
 and deciding whether you’re actually building a software company or some
 thing else entirely.
