On my way to help @GrandSlamTrack put on their first track meet for the fastest runners on the planet!

What do you think is the real ROI in startup support?

[Bradley de Wet @brad_thinks]

Are we building startup ecosystems…
Or just echo chambers? 🧵

[Bradley de Wet @brad_thinks]

Don't get me wrong - ecosystems matter.

But if we’re honest, many of these programs look great on paper and do little to increase startup survival rates.

So where should the money go? → Direct founder funding?
→ Early traction tools?
→ Performance-based marketing partners?

Cherry blossoms in DC with my wife.
A good reminder:
→ Life has seasons.
→ Growth takes rest.
→ Support is everything.

👥 If you're building a business, startup, or agency—ask yourself:

Are you just executing tactics, or are you building a sustainable, high-impact model?

Fast forward to today: as COO of @iExcelCo , a performance marketing agency, I see the same success drivers at play.

💡 Innovation, strategic partnerships, and results-driven execution separate the best from the rest.

@DominionEnergy just had our power back on 2 hours after we reported it. Pretty sure it was a branch falling on a line and blowing a transformer. Props you guys. Great job.

@RobertKennedyJr and @VivekGRamaswamy have extreme positions on some things I don’t agree with but I’m paying attention to the solutions they’re offering in these areas.

Excellent explanation of regulatory capture by @bgurley at the @theallinpod Summit. Government waist and anti-competitive legislation is killing Americans’ opportunities to prosper down stream. https://t.co/QYylk4Rnzl

Great work team comm! And great work Kyle Harris! It’s great to advise a group of fraternity men at Virginia Tech who understand that we should be better men as a result of our fraternity experience rather than good men inspite of it. https://t.co/xFEIBStmGy
