What can you gift to your entrepreneurial loved one?
Here’s a bit of a fun one for you today… Tis almost the season to be jolly, I’m recording this at the start of October, but I know someone people - like my mum - are already getting ideas for Christmas. So, are you like my mum and have three entrepreneurs in the family? Listen to this episode of the Startup Streams Serial Entrepreneur Podcast to find exactly what to get for your loved ones…
Here is what to buy...
OK, so just buy socks.
Just kidding, although I know Shopify does have an entrepreneur merch store, which does sell socks, but let’s look at something a bit more interesting.
First of all what is the pain point of your entrepreneurial loved one? We usually find entrepreneurs short on time, so think of something which is time saving. How about buying something simple like an organisational calendar - boring to most, loved by the entrepreneur. How about something which can be used on a daily basis like an express coffee machine or some kind of time saving kitchen device? Of course, we should all eat healthily, but every entrepreneur I know, usually treats food - well especially lunch and breakfast - as an after thought. Find something like a smoothy maker to make healthier food, fast.
Not a Tesla robot!
Or, just buy the new Tesla robot? Ok, that one is not out yet. Or at least, not for now. If you’re listening to this podcast is 2024, and you have one already - yay good for you! If you are listening in 2034, have they undeniably taken over control of the world and are forcing humans to mine cobalt and silicon?

Can't go wrong with entrepreneurial books. Here are my recommendations:
Ok, remaining happy and optimistic, you can never go wrong with giving an entrepreneur a book. No, not a novel, a business book. The latest business book. My recommendations from the past year is the “No Rules Rules” book written by Reed Hasting and Erin Meyer all about creating the Netflix company culture. Try “Working Backwards: Insights, Stories, and Secrets from Inside Amazon” by Colin Bryar and Bill Carr all about how to scale a business and innovate like Amazon do and definitely get “Blitzscaling: The Lightning-Fast Path to Building Massively Valuable Companies” by Reid Hoffman - although if your entrepreneurial family member is worth their salt, they probably have this on their book case already. Double check.
So, whenever I bump into or have the chance to meet someone super interesting in the ecommerce and business game, I always ask for a book recommendation. Shout out to Nick Schwinghamer - hope I pronounced that correctly - who was the Former Director of Growth at Shopify, who recommended me “The Courage To Be Disliked: How to free yourself, change your life and achieve real happiness” by Ichiro Kishimi - hope I pronounced that one properly too. He said this book made its way around the Shopify teams and said I would enjoy it. Nick, I haven’t yet dug into it, but I promise… soon.
Trying to find something on Amazon...
For more inspiration, I have just typed “entrepreneur gifts” into Amazon, and… yes it’s mainly books and more books. A lot of crap to be honest. Some custom mugs, office desk decal, oh the “1 Page Marketing Plan Book” by Allan Dib, another great book. OK, nothing else great there.
Mum, take note...
As for me, I have my eye on what’s called the ReMarkable tablet-like tech device. Think of it as something half way between a notepad and an iPad. Yes, of course you can write notes on an iPad, but the ReMarkable looks far more streamlined, and more suited to my doodling needs. Can’t wait to start planning new Startup Streams businesses on that thing.
Mum, hope you’re paying attention.
