7: Web 3

Curious—how much cash do you keep in your purse/wallet at any given time?

I’ll start: $0.

I can’t remember the last time I went to an ATM.

Yesterday I completed a 14 page, 4,000 word investment memo for my new startup 🚀

I highly recommend founders create a memo like this in addition to a deck.

It will:

- significantly speed up funding process
- convert higher quality investors
- serve as an FAQ (save you time) pic.twitter.com/q0SPTufU9P

In 2012 I sold $75k in digital products to an email list of less than 2k subscribers.

I was hooked on the power of email, but frustrated with the generic tools available.

So I made my own.

In 2013 @ConvertKit was born. Today it makes $31M/yr.

Lesson: scratch your own itch.

it's super encouraging to see VCs clarifying that just because a business isn't VC backable doesn't mean it isn't financially backable

My response:

I think pre-seed should be $5-10M post (raising 1-2M, with no/early revenues) and seed should be $10-20M post (raising 2-5M, with $10-25K+ ARR). This works for 90% of companies - outliers are those where it's a very experienced founding team...
