Jonathan Gheller went from selling tequeños, or fried cheese breadsticks, to being a founder of companies sold to Facebook and Google. In a world where unit economics became the new king for startups, Gheller is a long-term preacher about building businesses that are scalable and profitable.

Now, the Venezuelan entrepreneur not only advises early-stage startups. He also connects Latin American talents to Silicon Valley companies through Matilda Explorations.

Today, Jonathan and I talk about:

  • His first endeavors, and how to build scalable and profitable businesses;
  • Advice for early-stage startups and just-exited founders;
  • Reflections about remote work, being an efficient manager, and a new standard for salaries and hiring in tech
