@fordsmith early on

[Askar Musakunov @askar1]

half the battle in building a startup is believing distribution will come, especially when no one knows you exist yet.
the easy path is staying quiet, waiting to be discovered, assuming it won't work.
founders who believe in their own visibility tend to create it.

motoring w @GJarrosson. big drama show soon…

[Askar Musakunov @askar1]

Moves that can change your trajectory:

Shipping something every single week
Cutting off low-energy relationships
Picking one distribution channel and going deep
Deleting the apps that steal your focus
Saying yes to one scary opportunity

if you're stuck, start with one.
momentum builds fast.

last week, we covered $FRHC Freedom Holding’s Stanford GSB case study event. my team produced the recap.

most sf events disappear after the room clears.

we help turn them into media assets cinematic recaps, speaker clips, founder photos, and short-form content for X.

if you’re hosting a startup event in sf, dm me.
