Stop sending 100% AI-generated emails 📉

We’ve been diving into networking strategies lately, and this insight from Benny Liao really hits the nail on the head.
The biggest barrier to getting a reply from a busy investor or partner isn’t always your pitch — it’s sounding like a bot 🤖

As Benny points out, most VCs receive 50+ emails a day, and if an outreach looks 100% AI-written, it’s often skipped immediately. There’s no point in competing with automation if you want to build a real connection.

The secret? Be human. 🤝
🔗 Find a bridge: Mention a mutual connection or a recent event you both attended.
✍️ Skip the templates: Write the way you speak.
✨ Be genuine: A small personal detail is worth more than a 10-page pitch deck.

In a world full of automated noise 🔊, genuine context is the only thing that truly scales.

That’s why we’re excited to have Benny Liao joining us at our upcoming event on March 27 in San Francisco 🌉

It’s the perfect opportunity to skip the cold email phase and connect in person.
