Mailshake feels like a bit of a joke right now. They renew the subscription instantly, but don’t refresh the email limits apparently that only happens on the calendar month. What’s the point of renewing then? Honestly, building an email outreach tool isn’t hard anymore. SaaS

Using Gemini instead of ChatGPT. Significantly better results. Doesnt compliment when not asked. Foundation models need to be objective rather than attempting to invoke emotions in each query

Most people wake up tired not because they sleep less but because they wake up in the wrong sleep phase. When you wake mid-cycle, your brain is still in deep sleep mode. You’ll feel foggy even after 8 hours. Tip: Track your bedtime → aim to wake up in 90-min multiples. Example:

Myth: You need 8 hours of sleep. Truth: You need 4–5 sleep cycles (~90 mins each). ⏰ 6 hrs = 4 cycles ⏰ 7.5 hrs = 5 cycles ⏰ 8 hrs = mid-cycle grogginess It’s not about sleeping more it’s about sleeping smarter.

I used to think bad sleep was just part of “adulting.” Turns out, it’s a design flaw, in our routines, not our bodies. So I’m building something to fix that. If you struggle with late-night overthinking, endless scrolling, or waking up tired this journey’s for you. 💤 Let’s fix

One thing I’ve learned: When you’re truly passionate about something, you don’t see obstacles as reasons to stop. You see them as puzzles. Your instinct shifts from “Should I quit?” to “How do I figure this out?”

3/3 No one opens: “Product Updates – June” But they will open: - “You're losing users — here's why” - “3 habits killing your conversion rate” - “I made this mistake — don’t repeat it” Same email. Different psychology. Write for the brain, not the inbox.

2/3 Nir Eyal’s Hooked model: People act when external triggers meet internal pain. Email subject lines that convert tap into: • FOMO • Anxiety • Curiosity • Guilt Poke the pain. Offer relief with a click.

1/3 Want higher email open rates? Don’t start with the subject line. Start with the emotion. People don’t click because it’s logical. They click because it feels urgent, risky, or personal. Emotion drives action. Logic follows.

Ads are overrated. One of the most underrated growth levers? Email campaigns. Ads are like machine guns—broad, expensive, noisy. Emails are snipers—precise, personal, and compounding. You rent attention with ads. You build trust with emails. That trust converts.

2/2 We’ve already paid for the physical book, shouldn’t that mean we get the digital version too? Owning a book should mean owning it in all formats. Tagging some R-Leaders (readers and leaders) who might agree: @mcuban @WarrenBuffett @elonmusk @BillGates

1/2 @JeffBezos @ajassy Amazon prides itself on delivering the best customer service on Earth, so here’s a small idea with a big customer impact: if someone buys a hardcover, why not include Kindle access too?

3/3 In the next phase of digital transformation, I wonder if we'll see these companies get rid of external tools and build their own tools suiting their own specific requirements with their own product teams being able to own all their data. Who else feels the same?

2/3 In the current phase of digital transformation, Enterprises have hired their own product teams. Enterprises want to own their data and the number one reason, they have inhibitions with AI.

1/3 Enterprise SaaS might die soon. Only a handful will be win. the ones where cross-enterprise knowledge truly matters. Building a CRM tool with AI for their own requirements can be done in less than a week (team dependent).

Most communities chase scale. The best ones chase signal. 10,000 people in a Slack means nothing. 10 people who understand your goals? Everything. What if we all focused on depth, not volume. Get One intro. Once a week. Aligned to our goals and intent

High-performers don’t “network.” They collaborate. Great people don’t want small talk. They want co-builders, co-investors, co-dreamers. The best conversations aren’t transactional — they’re aligned.That’s the kind of space we’re building at

Social capital compounds. But only if you engage with the right people. Talking to 50 random folks won’t move the needle. Talking to 1 aligned person every week? That compounds. Think: trust → opportunities → referrals → impact. That’s why ColonyIQ is just one intro per week.

Serendipity isn't scalable. Intentionality is. Some of the best career moves start with “a random chat that turned into…” But what if we stopped relying on luck? Curated, intentional connections > hoping the right person shows up. That’s the principle behind ColonyIQ.
