too many businesses in America have been actively pissing in the face of consumer trust.
money can’t buy loyal customers when they hate you.
dissent is won over through:
meaningful action
painting better visions
delivering better products
addressing real concerns
building real trust
people need to feel a sense of safety and reliability to move the needle toward trust.
that is the relationship that builds the lifetime loyalty that hasn't existed in generations.
LTV is measured on the wrong scale.
how you make people feel will always beat
any logic,
any predictive data.
every time.
I know a male model in ny who LIVES to yo-yo all day and just happened to be blessed with the lethal bone structure to finance it. God bless America.
everyone’s focused on scaling taste, real ones know that greatness comes from likeminded, intimate groups given the opportunity to create, ideate & flourish together.
building The Salon. a private members club for people i’d actually want at my dinner table.
intimate dinners, spontaneous escapes, excellent company.
some things are better kept off the guest list.

Realizing that logic is almost always functionally irrelevant has been a rude awakening.
How things should be or what makes sense always loses to precedent, convention, and security.
I’ve still yet to see a good public campaign for AI.
They’re running like insurance ad playbooks on AI products.
Talking about AI as if it’s something you need in your life. Most people done even have even favorable perspective on AI
Most people don’t really know what it is or how it can serve them.
$50k is a hilariously insignificant amt of their margin. If you want 20% on every closed deal, sign up here usdataexchange.com/partner
Micro1's CEO on their data program: "we would add a couple billion in run rate like right away."
The program pays companies $200K+ to license their software data, anonymized.
Refer a company that follows through with this program, and micro1 pays YOU $50K.
I wrote out how to actually refer companies to micro1:
- Why the market exists
- How the money works
- Which companies qualify
- Building the list
- Writing the outreach
- Handling objections
- Getting paid
- Recruiting other brokers
Full breakdown in the article:
This thiel fellow founder house has
- luxe bath soaps
- sauna and cold plunge
- ninja slushie
- a full gym floor
- bedrooms with nice linens
- the loveliest people
I’m pleasantly shook
POV we’re quoting your company’s corpus $1m to sell to the labs
two girls moved to sf and somehow decided the most reasonable thing to do with our twenties was build companies in industries that desperately need fixing
currently operating on an unreasonable amount of ambition, questionable sleep schedules, and the belief that most things people accept as normal are actually just terribly designed systems
we’re here to build things that matter, meet people significantly smarter than us, argue about the future over martinis, and occasionally remember we’re supposed to be having fun
if you’re building something insane or just have a really interesting perspective on the world, we should probably be friends
bonus points if you’re a little delusional about what’s possible

The best cpg launch I’ve ever seen!
They captured the culture that cultivates the product with incredible artistry.
Beautiful, young well-dressed 20 something’s never should’ve fallen out of fashion in brand advertising.
It makes the soy sauce feel cool and fashionable
Like an accessory,
Chaz and I were sales interns at AT&T together he’s one of the realest I’m so excited to watch dojo.world ascent
