Somebody captures an incredible video, shares it online, and inspires millions of other people to go and do the same with their GoPros, and then it happens again and again - and what you've got is this incredible snowball of stoked customers capturing and creating rad content with their GoPros.
capturing job people
I think that devices like Glass are going to do a terrific job of capturing your first-person perspective. And that's what people first think of when they think of GoPro.

I grew up with stories of people who start their own businesses and do really well. So I thought, 'OK, that's what you do.' I can thank my dad for that.

People don't go buy GoPro for the thing; they buy it for what the thing does.

People are watching GoPro content not to decide whether they should buy it or not - they're watching it for the entertainment.

It sounds cheesy, but if you are having fun, people will love your company, you will be more successful, and more ideas will come your way.

I learned that most people buy based on emotion, not on a rational breakdown of the product or service.

difficult document footage friend good help love people unless wants
It's very difficult to get any footage of yourself doing what you love unless you have a friend who's a photographer or videographer and wants to document you. That was really the idea and the goal from the beginning: to help people get a good photo, and then it was to help people get a good video.
people creative
On the road and traveling - that's when people are at their most creative.
ages money
I lost $4 million of other people's money between the ages of 24 and 26.
drag good somebody succeeding
The worst way to fire somebody is to let it drag out. It's not good for that person because they're not succeeding in their role. And it's not good for the organization because it's just not working.
