Far too often in a pre-seed/seed slide I see two slides: 1. Exit slide: F*** NO. This is a 10-year journey. If anyone is thinking about the exit now, they are not right for the company. 2. Use of Proceeds Slide: It will change, it is unnecessary and only brings questions. — PolitiTweet.org

Working on an episode for next week with @satyap and Hunter Walk on the journey with @homebrew and biggest lessons. My god, this is a good one, if I do say so myself!!! — PolitiTweet.org

Mistake I see founders make today when fundraising: They try and get too cute with their cap table. I want this and that and this and that. In 95% of cases, just take the money and execute. Velocity and momentum is everything. Move fast, build momentum and get back to work. — PolitiTweet.org

Today I wasn’t motivated. Something got me down & I called a mentor. They said: “Harry cmon, it is easy to do the work when you are motivated. What separates the great from the rest is whether you get up and do it when you don’t feel it. When you aren’t motivated.” Total 🔥 — PolitiTweet.org

@SahilBloom @OrlandoBravoTB You went there: 1.) “one of the best”. 2.) “best on leadership”. 3.) @emilmichael is 🔥 — PolitiTweet.org

Whether it is a personal brand or a company brand, the best brands make people feel. You are either for them or against them. They can love you, they can hate you but they have to feel something. The devil is in the neutral in brand. — PolitiTweet.org

Short form video is the next great frontier in B2B enterprise marketing since email. And no, TikTok is not just for teens. 😂 — PolitiTweet.org

Harry Stebbings @HarryStebbings

Someone recently laid off asked me today: What would I do if I were in their shoes? I said: "Simple. Would immerse myself in short-form video, creation, editing, TikTok algos, YT Shorts, understand the machine. Then both create for own brand & sell services on side". — PolitiTweet.org

Twitter should introduce and encourage longer form video: Enhanced discussion. Longer usage. Deeper engagement. Not sure why this isn’t happening. — PolitiTweet.org

Always remember meeting someone and every meeting they started with a new person they asked: What is your most painful memory and why? It sets the threshold for the level and openness of conversation one is willing to have. Right or wrong, I always remember it. — PolitiTweet.org

What a 🔥 start to the week. We have @AROD confirmed for a special 20VC episode in March. Stay tuned folks, this one will be an epic! 🚀 — PolitiTweet.org

When people you have never met say "Hey, it would be great to hop on a call and chat." I mean seriously, who says yes to this? Who has the time to "hop on a call and chat" with some random? I just respond, why? 😂 — PolitiTweet.org

@braveben Fucking worrying. Welcome to the woke world my friend… 😬 — PolitiTweet.org

@geri_kirilova I don’t do Twitter arguments so if you want to try and get a role in VC, try both and let us know which works more effectively. 👍 — PolitiTweet.org

A big lie we are told is that your drive, your ambition, your unwillingness to fail has to be for yourself. Total BS. It can be for your children, your family, your other half. Other people can fuel your discipline and ambition do not let people tell you otherwise. — PolitiTweet.org

Just been told a cracker: “Love is the triumph of hope over knowledge and rationale.” 😂 Love it. — PolitiTweet.org

The best businesses are built when you can apply one type of business model to a completely different type of business. Our media team at 20VC is also compensated with carried interest in funds. Something no media company can do. So we acquire and retain the best talent. 🚀 — PolitiTweet.org

Venture capital can be summarized in the 4 S’: Sourcing: finding the best companies. Selecting; picking the best companies. Scoring: winning the right to work with the best entrepreneurs. Servicing; helping the best achieve their potential. 🔥 — PolitiTweet.org

If I was a college student today, I would be studying the shit out of YouTube. What goes viral? Why? How does that differ by type (shorts vs long form)? How does it differ by category? One of the most valuable skills of the next decade. 🤷‍♀️ — PolitiTweet.org

Who is the single most talented person at growing YouTube channels that you know? I will give you $10,000 if we hire them. 🔥 — PolitiTweet.org

The biggest mistake content creators make is they spend too much time creating their first piece of content. Your first 20 pieces of content, won’t get any views/hits. Make 100. Improve one little thing with every piece. Analyze each change, be deliberate. Then 🔥 — PolitiTweet.org

90% of the time, do not expand if you are losing money. You are only making the problem bigger. — PolitiTweet.org

For founders that have spun out of a well-known company & are raising a pre-seed round. Make sure to be able to provide a really articulate answer on: 1. What did you learn from your time at X company that worked & you will take with you? 2. What will you not take with you? — PolitiTweet.org

At the end of the day the single best founders can go through the shit of shit days and wake up the next day and say, today, today will be different. 💪🏼 — PolitiTweet.org
