I’m gonna give 10 random people that repost this and follow me $25,000 for fun (the $250,000 my X video made) I’ll pick the winners in 72 hours

@SarahAllali7 @justingordon212 Founders should 100% do this. It’s never to early to engage investors. If it’s not a fit they’ll unsubscribe. Today I met an investor who on average meets the founder 4 years before writing a check.

📢 Calling founders & investors - What are your thoughts on sending investor updates to investors who are interested in your company but a bit too early to keep them informed of your progress? Any founders/investors ever found it useful?

lets gooooo @JasonVego

BEVZ UNSUNG FUNDRAISING HERO # 6 – PRACTICE PARTNER: @Techstars During the accelerator, Techstars pushed me to make the @bevz_tech pitch way better. We pitched live and in-person every week and got ripped apart. And it worked. Round close details coming soon! #accelerators

BEVZ UNSUNG FUNDRAISING HERO # 7 – EARLY CUSTOMERS: Issa Hawara (Circus Liquor) and Sarkis Abudlhai (Clark's Liquor). Double shout out to these 2 customers, who were also our first investors, in Summer 2019 before our product launched!🙏 #fundraising #startups

June results at Bevz 😍 Reach out if you want to (a) join us, (b) introduce us to great candidates, or (c) help us close this fundraising round, which is 90% committed...or, I guess, if you just want to chat startups😃. #startups #fundraising #saas #hiring

I was talking with a founder raising her pre-seed. My advice: Sell a big vision, convince investors you’re the best team to pull this off, and show just enough traction. Then paint a picture of the 5-10 key things you’ll do to bring the vision to life. This is her window 😁

Last week was LA Tech Week, and I met some incredible founders and investors. But there's a lot more we need to do to build up the startup community in LA. If you're an LA founder or investor, let me know if I can do anything to help you. #latechweek #losangeles #startups

@justingordon212 Hi Justin! I’m the CEO & Co-Founder of Bevz, a SaaS platform for convenience stores. We have 300+ stores on the platform, growing 21% monthly, and about to close a financing round. I feel really strongly about building up the LA startup/VC community. Hope to join a meetup soon!

Founders and Investors in Los Angeles: Introduce yourselves below! I'm hosting a coffee meetup tomorrow in WeHo and want to host more meetups around LA soon

@mitchell_sorkin @tylertringas We’re building automation and integration software for convenience stores. 300+ stores on our platform, growing 21% monthly. A little allocation left in this round if you want to chat more!

Who’s out there building SaaS for an overlooked, unsexy industry?

May results are in! Our messaging, product, and story is really resonating with convenience stores. I love vertical SaaS because we can offer way more value and solve tougher problems than our competitors when we stay hyper-focused on convenience stores…lnkd.in/g5Hp-ihB

After years of building, pivoting, then rebuilding Bevz, we're really hitting our stride in 2023. Shout out to an incredible team making this all happen! #conveniencestores #saas #startup #retailtech lnkd.in/ggYkZRHb

@mauraball Lol me too. I may or may not have signed up for personal credit cards that were supposed to be metal, and when they weren’t metal, I was very sad. My wishes have finally come true with the Brex card.

@JasonVego I’ve always wanted a metal card 😂

Founders: imagine you’re setting up a business bank account for the first time; which bank would you choose and why?

Join our team at Bevz! We're looking for a Customer Success pro that wants to join a fast-growing startup supporting local businesses at a national scale. My promise: Exciting and challenging work, many professional growth opport…lnkd.in/gTU64iR3 lnkd.in/g6yfZrJQ

As the non-alcoholic (NA) drink sector continues to blow up, reaching $11B last year, I thought I’d share my favorites... 1) Athletic Brewing Co. continues to dominate as one of first players, with amazing quality and selection. I think their original IP…lnkd.in/gskSqPbh
