In this episode I speak with Taylor Crane.

Taylor is the founder of Fractional Jobs, helping startups reach and recruit fractional leaders (think fractional CMOs, CTOs, Heads of Sales, etc.). He's also the founder of Clubs Poker, acquired in 2023, and before that was a Product Manager for 10 years.

Taylor and I cover topics including:

• Quantifiable goals as a solopreneur
• The benefits of fractional work and solopreneurship
• The downsides of fractional work and solopreneurship
• The 40 hour work week and the industrial revolution

And other topics.

My conversation with Taylor was a total delight. I’m fascinated by the concept of work. Why we do it. The way we do it. Anachronisms from culture and history and technology that persist despite there being better options.

Taylor and I cover all of this. It felt like a really fun philosophical exploration of the notion of “work” - and Taylor is building something with Fractional Jobs to walk the walk he believes in, and I admire that with all my love and respect.

He was a great guest, so here he is.

Please enjoy my conversation with - Taylor Crane.
