Natalie Barbu brings California's founder-retreat lessons home
A second upload follows her Adweek speaking trip to New York and Rella's first company offsite in Charleston.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
What successful founders actually talk about (behind closed doors)
What do founders talk about when they're learning from each other rather than pitching? Natalie Barbu's answer covers money, asking better questions, health, business systems and the value of a good network.
In “What successful founders actually talk about (behind closed doors),” she shares takeaways from four days in California with seven other women founders. Her friend Nana hosted the retreat, where each founder taught a workshop. For Barbu, who founded the social-media-team project management tool Rella, it's a chance to turn a business trip into something viewers can use. One commenter picks up specifically on the value of a quality network and getting into the right rooms.
The retreat recap drew about 3,300 views, comfortably the most watched of her two new uploads and the channel's most active video right now. “DIML: NYC to Offsite” offers the travel-day counterpart: a brief New York stop to speak at Adweek, then Charleston for the company's first offsite.
Subscribers were unchanged, and daily viewing was far below its usual pace. Nearby business channel Inc. also had unchanged subscribers, while Damien Talks Money added subscribers. On Barbu's own shelf, the two new business-trip videos account for most of the current momentum, with the older “Bloopers” contributing a small extra trickle.
