People don’t love companies because of their physical products. They love them because of the experiences they create. For example: IKEA doesn’t sell furniture. They sell easy transport and assembly. Uber doesn’t sell transportation. They sell frictionless rides on demand. Disney doesn’t sell rides and movies. They sell magic and enchantment.

Dear SaaStr: What Do VCs Do When They Leave Their Position? It depends on if they own the place. A true “Managing General Partner” usually doesn’t so much leave as wind down, step down, slowly retire, etc. Why not? Because VC funds typically last 13–14 years each, and often 20 years to full distribution. And a Managing General Partner will often be running 2–5 of these at the same time.
