What's it like -after- your startup is acquired? Jack Wrigley has been living that experience in a particularly vivid way, joining the ranks at former sometimes-competitor Webbula after helping Kickbox grow into acquisition. As he shares, it's not all that simple; "giving up your baby" is a long and sometimes emotional process. The mindset shaped by time as an entrepreneur isn't always an exact fit for later roles.

As a long-time figure in the world of email, Jack has a super-informed perspective about it. There's an incredibly complex world of "moving parts" that enable the seemingly-simple act of sending an email around the globe. Those parts are in constant evolution — for example, "deliverability", as Jack says, has become a vital and much-more-common service in just a few years.

Jack is a super-enjoyable guest. He's clearly both passionate and thoughtful about his market space; his story about the T-Mobile texting experience shows the professional value of staying open and observant in the moment. Jack and Matthew spend considerable time kicking around how sms and email are evolving together, and speculate on where that might go.

A great conversation to put some depth to "just hit send."
