all gtm channels will be competed out with AI:
- cold email
- organic blogs / video /seo

- partnerships
- endorsements

To achieve great things you have to be willing to be disliked.
Because in the beginning, you’ll do different stuff than the people around you, and they’ll dislike you for it.
And in the end, you’ll achieve more than the people around you, and they’ll dislike you for it.
something we learned early on during YC:
every sales call should end with a definitive YES (a second meeting or a referral) or a definitive NO (an insight)

Your entire life can really change in a year. You just gotta love yourself enough to know you deserve more, be brave enough to demand more, and be disciplined enough to actually work for more. You can do it. You got this.
The founders booking 30+ calls a month from LinkedIn all do the same 5 things:
1. Post 6-7x a week (not 2-3)
2. Send 200 connection requests weekly to qualified leads
3. DM every single new connection within 24 hours
4. Follow up 2-3 times on non-responders
5. Post 2x+ lead magnets a week
Then do that for 90 days.
If youre going to chase a dream, go all in. If youre going to love, love fiercely. If you're going to walk away, never look back.
So many people never even give themselves a fighting chance because they never fully commit.
If you're gonna go, go all the way. No half measures.
