  • Rob Snyder demonstrates his PULL framework in real-time – using Yaniv's startup

    Rob Snyder demonstrates his PULL framework in real-time – using Yaniv's startup
    2026/07/27
    A few weeks ago, Rob Snyder came on the pod to introduce his PULL framework for identifying real product-market fit. Now, Yaniv turns the tables and subjects his own startup, Vera, to the same scrutiny. Yaniv and Rob strip away the noise around Vera's mission to help adult children care for aging parents and get brutally honest about where the product actually has pull, where it doesn't, and what needs to change immediately. They identify a specific, unavoidable moment in the customer journey and pinpoint that is where the real business begins, and discuss more macro issues, such as AI vs. human expertise, founder blind spots, and more. In this episode, you will:Understand the difference between an aspiration and a project, and why this distinction is vital for PULLLearn how the PULL framework cuts through startup theory to identify the exact moment when customers will actually pull your product from your hands, before they have to wait for a crisisDiscover why Vera's original problem was too abstract, and how narrowing to a specific market segment with intense, unavoidable need becomes your path to revenue and growthHear the truth behind what really pushes your customers to adopt earlier: reality does the convincing, not your marketingUnderstand the challenge of reputation in AI: how do human-shaped applications build trust the way human experts do?Timestamps00:00 Coming Up01:38 On Today's Show: Yaniv Applies PULL to Vera04:42 Defining PULL and Projects05:54 Vera's Customer Goals08:00 Unavoidable Moments and Crisis11:25 Real Users and Traction16:58 Mission vs Push Marketing24:07 Why Isn't Google Enough?28:21 Nailing the Specific Project34:02 Testing Market With Ads37:06 Bill Gates And AI Shift38:47 Human Shaped Software Design43:45 Trust And Reputation In Bots48:48 About The BookResources mentioned in this episodeThe Power of Pull by Rob Snyder: https://www.amazon.com/Power-Pull-Customer-Successful-Founders/dp/1541705955Rob Snyder's website: https://www.robsnyder.orgVera (Yaniv's startup helping families care for aging parents): https://vera.guideClub Sandwich, Vera's podcast and community for the sandwich generation: https://clubsandwich.communityWhat the sandwich generation is (and why it's Vera's market): https://clubsandwich.community/sandwich-generationThe PactHonor the Startup Podcast Pact!

  • Why you should run your startup like a poker player (Replay)

    Why you should run your startup like a poker player (Replay)
    2026/07/20

    This is a remastered Replay of one of our most popular episodes, "What Startups Can Learn From Poker", which was originally published on 21 December 2022. Enjoy!


    Original description:

    All season, Chris and Yaniv have talked about the mindset that is needed to succeed at venture-backed startups. For the final episode of Season 1, we tie it all together with an analogy: tournament poker.

    It is amazing how many things poker and startups have in common, so in this episode we use the lens of poker to discuss the big picture of how to approach building a successful startup.

    We dive into each of the following commonalities between poker and startup life:

    01:56 Playing an iterative game

    10:00 Burning cash

    13:31 Making decisions based on uncertain information

    18:46 Progressive learning

    28:44 Avoiding 'resulting'

    35:02 The relatively low probability of a successful outcome (and why that’s OK!)


    This episode was inspired by the book 'Thinking in Bets' by former pro poker player Annie Duke.
