I completed 2 years in VC last month. I’ve led a few deals, seen some uprounds, and navigated crises. I’ve also lost a bunch of deals. Here’s what I learned, written as notes to myself, some where I did a 180 on what I thought before I started:

[Rajiv Srivatsa @telljeeves]

Thanks to all our early backers and founders who have trusted us.

@altanboost Well, if you can reduce your own software load by using OpenAI for functions that are now becôing trivial, your Cloud Hosting bill will reduce for sure, and your OpenAI one will rise

[Alex Banks @thealexbanks]

OpenAI released plugins for ChatGPT.

It will change the future of humanity.

[Siqi Chen @blader]

i think in these uncertain times it’s important that everyone shut the fuck up

[Antoine Poirson @apoirson]

@2lr This is likely the most important advice for early-stage startup founders :-)

[Antler US @antler_us]

@the_transit_guy @kenyanpundit @FlowspaceUK this one is for you!

[Gil Dibner @gdibner]

We talk to a fair number of LPs. If we connect the dots, it seems there is a huge explosion coming. Here's how it might unfold:

[Antoine Poirson @apoirson]

@humairawins No test. However we just realised that my entire team are ENTJ/INTJs. Very obvious bias here

[Antoine Poirson @apoirson]

This is rule #2 of fundraising actually: consistent regular quality investor updates

[Harry Stebbings @HarryStebbings]

If you write consistent, high-quality monthly updates to your investors.

I guarantee you that when times are not good and you need that bridge round, you are 50%+ more likely to retain their support if you wrote those updates.

Day one or One Day! 🔥
