list building stack that'll get the job done:
- @DiscoLikeHQ
- Blitzapi (emails + phone)
- Million Verifier
Cost per contact sourced is absolutely and infinitely cheaper at scale with this

PLEASE please implement this into your GTM if you haven't. Honestly, even with or without Clay -- definition of leaving value on the table, otherwise.

$10M ARR is the FU MONEY of SaaS.
At $10M ARR bootstrapped, you and your co-founder clear $1M+/year in salary and dividends easily.
You can sell instantly for $30-40M. There are hundreds of EBITDA buyers at this level vs. a handful at $1B valuations.
From here, you can do whatever you want.
Hire a CEO and work 1 hour/week. Grind 100 hours if that's your thing. Raise $50M from a position of strength. Scale to $25M ARR with 25 people and pay yourself $10-15M/year.
Most companies never get here because VCs show up early with decacorn dreams and money you don't need.
That capital interferes with the one thing that makes you great: product-market fit.
Bootstrapping to $10M ARR is easier and less risky than creating a VC-backed unicorn, with a far higher probability-weighted outcome.
If you can find PMF and use customer money to get to $10M, you can do anything you want with your life.
wtaf, can't believe this is fr. RIP adam. you were on my feed like yesterday man.
As a father of 2 its absolutely devastating to hear about the tragedy of @RetentionAdam and his family.
Can't even begin to fathom a situation unfolding as it did.
One of the few people in the GTM space who offered real thoughts and innovating ideas.
My prayers go to him, his family, and everyone else who was involved.
Revelation 21:4 🙏

folks think the tool is where the magic is. sorry to break it to you but if you dont understand your market, no amount of @clay or @heyreach_io can help you book more meetings. your brand is the first thing to clean up.

if I hear 'most advanced' or 'world's first' one more time 😫
Today I'm excited to introduce Hark, a new artificial intelligence lab building the most advanced, personal intelligence in the world
We've been in stealth for 8 months, assembling one of the greatest AI and hardware teams on the planet
I want to explain why I started Hark and what we're focused on
I've spent the last 3 years working on the hardest AI challenge imaginable: giving AI a humanoid body. On the digital side, I've been using all the existing LLM chatbots - and I have to say, they feel incredibly dumb to me
AGI, in the limit, should feel like a sci-fi movie. It should be able to listen and talk. It should have persistent memory and be highly personalized. It should see and touch the world. But we're far from this today
We are crafting a new interface to AGI. Intelligence that lets you offload your mental workload into a system that begins to think like you and sometimes ahead of you
We started Hark with one goal: build the world's most advanced personal intelligence - paired with next-generation hardware designed to serve as a universal interface between humans and machines
