Run the 8 checks first
Before you join any company, inspect the same eight things I inspect.
Show Me the 8 ChecksThere is a cycle in this industry that destroys more potential than any other single factor. Not the economy. Not the product. Not the comp plan. The cycle of chasing whatever is making noise right now.
Every six months or so, something new surfaces. A new company with a new product and a new comp structure. The leaders who are in it first start posting about their results. The story spreads. And the chasers start moving.
Some of them have moved six times in five years. Every move was supposed to be the one. None of them was.
What Noise Does to You

Run any company through the same standard I use. Free, takes 10 minutes.
Noise creates the illusion of opportunity. It feels like if you just get to the right place at the right time, everything will finally work. The reality is that the people at every new hot company are mostly the same people who were at the last one. And their results will be mostly the same too.
Because the problem was never the company. The problem was the habit of chasing instead of building.
Chasing is comfortable. It never requires you to face the fact that you have not built the systems. You can always blame the last company and use the new one as a fresh start. But a fresh start that repeats the same pattern is not a start. It is the same loop.
What Building Actually Requires
Building requires you to stay somewhere long enough to be uncomfortable. The first year of real building is not exciting. You are doing the same activities over and over with less obvious feedback than a launch gives you. You are building habits, not results. Results come later.
The leaders I respect most in this industry are not the ones who found the hottest thing fastest. They are the ones who picked a home, built a real team, and stayed when it got hard. That discipline is rare. And it compounds.
“Depth always beats breadth in this business. One real relationship beats ten shallow ones. One real team beats ten failed starts.”
The Signal vs The Noise
Signal is what endures. Signal is a company with strong fundamentals, founder leadership that has your back, a product people actually reorder, and a comp structure that rewards real work. Signal does not need to make a lot of noise because it does not need to recruit you away from something better.
When I was evaluating Vital Health, I was not looking for excitement. I was looking for signal. I flew to Hermosillo. I sat with the founders. I asked hard questions. The answers were not flashy. They were solid. That is what I was looking for.
The Decision
The decision to stop chasing is one of the hardest ones in this industry because it means accepting that success here requires time. Real time. Not months. Years.
But once you make that decision and you find the right home, something changes. You stop evaluating every new thing that surfaces. You stop looking over your shoulder. You start building with the calm focus of someone who knows exactly where they are going and why.
That focus is worth more than any hot launch. Every time.
