About this presentation
Why bang your head against the wall doing something that's not working? In this 99 talk, CEO Jason Goldberg breaks down the thinking and execution behind Fab.com's famous pivot from gay social networking site (Fabulous) to a design-obsessed online marketplace. He shares tips on when to call it quits on a startup, how to find your "one thing," and the importance of authenticity.
