Acerca de esta escucha
Leaving the Base Camp reveals the unconventional growth and management strategies Ilma Tiki used to bootstrap MailerLite from a small Lithuanian startup business to a $90 million exit, building a globally distributed remote team along the way.
Ilma’s story proves that you don’t need to move to Silicon Valley, raise funds, and risk it all to grow a startup. Alternative paths aren’t just for lifestyle businesses; you can use them to grow wildly successful companies with millions of users.
The entertaining tale is full of practical advice from Ilma’s 10-year-plus journey. You’ll discover the strategies that helped her scale the company while pioneering an asynchronous and productive remote work culture loved by team members in over 35 countries.
Listen to the audiobook to learn:
- How to compete with well-funded competitors on a shoestring budget
- Proven tips for building culture in remote teams while leading from anywhere
- Strategies for scaling up your business while staying excited as a founder
- Balance running a successful business with a happy family and a good night's sleep
The stories in Leaving the Base Camp are the exact strategies that enabled MailerLite to overcome hurdles such as a lack of venture capital, a home base outside the major tech hubs, and a desire to balance growth with lifestyle. They will resonate with founders and leaders looking to scale in unconventional ways, whether you’re just getting started or building toward your IPO.
Ilma Tiki co-founded MailerLite, MailerSend, and MailerCheck, email marketing tools used by over 1 million businesses. She also founded The Remote Company, which is behind the tools MyZenTeam, Ycode, and Partnero. She’s passionate about connecting people online or offline, bringing creativity to life and learning something new every day.

Ever felt the thrill of a brilliant business idea only to slam into the brick wall of risk and uncertainty? You're not alone. Even giants like Elon Musk and Warren Buffett faced the same daunting question at some point: "Is it worth the risk?" The old business model would have you jump through hoops of fire, risk losing money and time, often only to hit a dead end. But those days are gone. Today, the smartest business owners on the planet know that financial growth doesn't have to be a roll of the dice. Are you ready to step into this new paradigm?

While most of us have grown up being taught that the letter “I” has no place in the word “team,” teams are wholly made up of individual advantages that contribute to the collective power of the group. In Individual Influence, authors Brian and Mary Smith go far beyond this axiom, making a persuasive case that even a company or team of individual players is still an “Individual” at its core—expressing the collective influence of all those who play a role in it. Thus, there is not just one “I” in team, but many.

"I'm going down now", I said to a young woman a few seconds before the darkness-my first cardiac arrest. As I returned to work as a behavioral coach, it became maddening to hear about all-consuming, everyday problems and misguided priorities while I fought to merely remain conscious. The Half-Known Life challenges conventional thinking of success, identity, and personal change. Most often, truly profound change happens following events that shake someone to their core-a car accident, death of a family member, or cardiac arrest that pulls them into a moment of clarity.

That system is “governance.” The Pragmatist’s Guide to Governance takes a first principles approach to exploring the ways governance structures affect the humans living under them (and vice versa), with a special focus on how human psychology interacts with the structures that facilitate our interaction with other people.

The reason most people struggle to sell what they want, for the price they want, is because they’re bored by or unconfident in their own product, their customers seem uninterested with what they have to sell, and they’re uncomfortable with the sales processes they’ve been taught. Follow the Sell Futures, Not Features framework to overcome those roadblocks and build products, offers, and sales messaging that make you the absolute best choice in your market.

At first just the wacky idea of cofounders Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk, Airbnb has disrupted the $500 billion hotel industry, and its $30 billion valuation is now larger than that of Hilton and close to that of Marriott.
