Jason Cohen is a Smart Bear

Jason Cohen aka aSmartBear has been founding and building both bootstrapped and VC-funded businesses for 25 years. He’s had successful exits and built two unicorns and is currently Chief Innovation Officer at WPEngine. He also writes and talks about his experiences and the lessons that he’s learned along the way.

Jason however, is not someone who would claim to have a magic plan, a guaranteed playbook for SaaS success. Very much in the spirit of BoS, he understands that every entrepreneur exists in their own world and context, so his writing and talks tend to help you ask the right questions for you, rather than peddling a magic formula.

Jason is back at Business of Software Conference USA, Raleigh NC, 2-4 October.

He’ll be there for the whole time, so you can hang out. He will be sharing a brand new talk on building your permanent defensible strategy.

Want to understand why we are so excited? See for yourself.

Three of Jason’s BoS Talks to help you:

  • Understand what advice is right for you.
  • Why honest and transparent businesses are better businesses.
  • How to reconcile being an entrepreneur with that nagging feeling that you don’t know what you are doing.

Frank Slickman

Frank Slickman is the enterprise sales guy you probably don’t want to hire.

Regular attendees to Business of Software Conference over the years may have heard of Frank Slickman, even if they have not met him. He’s somewhat elusive, spending most of his time on the golf course closing enterprise sales deals. He’s a super experienced enterprise sales guy. The sort of person that you might think could take all your sales issues away so you can focus on the important stuff. (Code).

Jason Cohen wrote about him way back in 2008 in a blog post, bad advice. You should read it.

Barbie: A timeless icon

Barbie, the iconic fashion doll by Mattel, has spanned generations and remains a cultural symbol since her inception in 1959. While Barbie’s popularity initially stemmed from her fashionable looks and various accessories, the doll’s evolution over the years has been closely tied to advancements in software and digital marketing.

As this week sees the release of the Barbie movie starring the fabulous Margot Robbie (and Ryan Gosling) BoS is going pink for the day to celebrate this iconic brand and – more importantly – the savvy business model behind it.

So how has Barbie successfully integrated software technologies into its marketing campaigns and adopted innovative business models, making her an inspiring case study for businesses looking to learn from their strategies?
