How to Make Your First Million

​Going from $0 to your first $1M in revenue is one of the hardest parts of building a startup. We’re hosting a tactical workshop with Luis Manrique, founder of Orchestra, on how to get there.

​Before Orchestra, Luis was employee #2 at Gumloop, where he worked across product, GTM, forward deployed engineering, and enterprise sales. He helped take Gumloop from its earliest customers to $2M in ARR, working with companies like Instacart, Shopify, and DoorDash.

​Alongside Luis will be Max Mullen, co-founder of Instacart, bringing his perspective from building Instacart from the earliest days. He now works closely with early stage founders as an investor through Workshop.

​Luis and Max will break down what actually worked:

• ​Finding your first customers

• ​Founder led sales before anyone knows who you are

• ​Turning early users into real revenue

• ​Knowing what to build versus what to sell

• ​Getting from $0 → $1M without building a traditional sales team

​This is a candid working session for early stage founders. Bring your GTM questions, current bottlenecks, and the deals you’re trying to close.

​Hosted by Workshop × Orchestra.
