You're reading Distilled Thinking.
Who are you?
My name is Dan Shipper. In 2012 (my sophomore year of college) I started a company called Firefly with some friends. Since that time we bootstrapped our way to the mid-six figures in revenue and are used by thousands of SMBs, financial advisors, and a few huge companies. In July we sold the company to Pega. Read more about the experience here.
This blog has attracted over a half a million readers since I started writing my freshman year of college. You can read about me in:
The New York Times, TechCrunch, Business Insider, Inc Magazine, Entrepreneur Magazine and PandoDaily among others.
Articles that I post here are frequently syndicated on PandoDaily and Lifehacker.
You can find me on Twitter at @danshipper. Or send me an email.
