1) Great founders with great fundraising skills 2) Bad founders with great fundraising skills 3) Great founders with bad fundraising skills 1's and 2's get funded. 3's do not, and it hurts to see. That's the problem i'm trying to solve.

LA friends: who’s building in longevity? And which funds here are actively looking at the space? I’ve got a friend in town next month who’s been steering his investment mandate toward longevity and would love to help him map the ecosystem in LA Selfishly, I also want to spend

every marketplace startup will look great once the supply / demand flywheel kicks in… if you’re raising pre-seed, focusing on that fantasy future is a massive mistake If you don't show how you’re building supply out the gate… you come off extremely naive. you're DOA

i like this. more VCs should do this especially if they do a good job of filtering and describing their pass reasons to not create a negative signal
Started a monthly deal share of the top 10-20 deals we liked the most each month with other VCs. Some we invested in, others were a bit out of scope. Fast forward 12 months of sharing and we have successfully helped 25+ companies raise a pre-seed or seed round. Really fun part of

Apologies to @WisprFlow for the previous post it turns out, even though i selected my external mic at the systems settings level, Wispr was still using the built in mic... I had to manually go into the app settings now the accuracy with my mic is *chef's kiss*
has anyone else seen a MASSIVE difference in accuracy while dictating (ironically) whispers between ChatGPT's native speech to text and @WisprFlow ? ChatGPT is way way better in noisy environments when you whisper into a mic than @WisprFlow i hope they're working on that...

If you’re an investor who loves golf and wants in on future events, check out https://t.co/ZZBzfvpYhk or drop a comment below. And if you’re a founder that should be on these investors radars… tag your self / your company!

For next time: Already working on expanding formats. As long as it's competitive AND can be played in 90 minutes or less, it'll be a possible https://t.co/ZZBzfvpYhk event. More putting and some golf sim tourneys are in the works.

Now… the result. We had a lot of great matches, big lead changes, come backs and some ass-whoopings, but Rayfe took home the title after a hot streak with the flat stick. 🏆

It was a short tournament using a 1v1 putting format I played in junior golf ...surprisingly competitive and super fun. Instead of just posting photos + results, I'm using this as a chance to highlight the partners / firms who participated. VCs could always do a better job

Hosted my first https://t.co/g5mYBjph1b event last week. The idea was simple… bring together VC friends who love golf but rarely have time for a 6-hour round.… 🧵

I've seen this work too! I've also seen completely different flows work... Story flows are not one size fits all. Use the flow that works best for your story. (oh and get feedback)
talked to a founder who told their story in a way that flowed nicely: 0. team 1. massive problem / opportunity (caused by a tailwind) 2. their wedge product / starting point 3. why that wedge is the best angle into the opportunity 4. why they could expand easily from that wedge
