SXSW 2024 was a blast! Here's my recap with Josh. Funny moments: - 2 encounters with Mark Cuban. One involved a lot of yelling... - Ate at a food truck that got shut down 5 minutes later by the health department. Do not recommend. - "Bad Luck Barker" is very entertaining. Josh…
Can you start a group text with 5-10 people who are ideal customers? If you don’t have that, you probably are not connected well enough with the industry/community to launch your startup. Build community before building a product.

Just helped a founder acquire a startup on @acquiredotcom for <$10k after he was quoted $250k to build it from scratch. They acquired a good product with bad marketing. Now the founder can focus on user acquisition (their strength) instead of developing an app.

@BryceKaiser @darrenmarble Yeah, some investors who are more hands on ask for a lower % for approval. However, I think it’s a good practice in general to build trust in the founders financial decisions.
@darrenmarble Typically the amount is close to 5% of the investment. Requiring board approvals/votes for >=5% or $50k in this case is pretty standard. 2.5% is too low an amount for it to make financial sense to both the founder and the board. And it’s a sign of no-trust on the founder to…
@darrenmarble Zero chance. Facebook is the classic example but without board control they don't acquire Instagram and they are a very different company today. Visionary CEOs need to move quickly because they have asymmetrical information advantages.
Just talked to a founder working on the sort of unsexy idea that gets overlooked by new Stanford grads looking for startup ideas. I told him that since his idea wasn't AI, it was even more likely to remain overlooked by them in the future.
@paulg only a matter of time before ai fades into the woodwork as another part of the infrastructure stack

@rowancheung This is as expected in how LLMs predict the next word or word chunk. You probably know this already but LLM doesn't recognize the word Apple as we do. It could be tokenized as, A P P L E APP L E AP P LE AP PLE A PP LE or any other combination.
Had someone decline a call 20 minutes before the meeting. It wasn't a huge lead, but I had the whole pitch ready, stopped working for an hour, researched the brand, and prepared some good questions to ask. It was a bit disappointing to see this, but well, that happens.
Here's a common startup situation. A team busts their ass for months building the first version of their product. It's almost done. Now a big question emerges -- how do you get the first people to use your product? Hmm... If you find yourself at this moment, then you are already…

Nice to return on a Monday morning and see a few community milestones—eclipsed 5,000 on both X and Discord on the same day. This is what open source support looks like. 💪
In my experience technical founders struggle with marketing because they treat it like coding. They expect to do something and see the output immediately. I notice this every time I talk with them. It's not their fault. It's just how their brains work. But if they want to…
@SahinKevin @BryceKaiser @theandreboso @nicolasmerouze agreed BUT what he did is validate PSF (Problem Solution Fit) which is a big step towards PMF and much better to have than no validation. You can't pre-validate PMF from zero because one is missing bunch of steps to get there in the first place.
@BryceKaiser @theandreboso That's great! The next challenge is figuring out if you made something that resonates only with the small group who pre-ordered or you've got something that can scale.
Just read a post on how investors can help young founders. Here is what I believe Boards & Investors should do more 🧵 1. Be there! You don’t have to help them daily and you don’t want to hold their hand, but let them know and repeat often “I have your back”. Make sure they…

If I'd want to validate a startup in 2023 I would - build a mockup - open TikTok account - make daily TikTok about it - have Linktree link in bio - add Stripe payment link to Linktre to pre-order: like $200 but early bird discount $50 Do this for 30 ideas - see what sells most
