talked to a bunch of current YC batch founders today The ones hitting $1m+ ARR (there are several this batch) are just ripping the same outbound playbook every time: 1. build your lead lists using tools like Origami or Clay 2. Run an auto-connect + DM sequencer on LinkedIn 3. aim for 200 connects/week. linkedin is a goldmine 4. when writing Linkedin DMs, send 2-sentences, ideally with a warm thread (shared school, mutual, etc) 5. Post on LinkedIn 5x/wk minimum 6. get good at AEO (yes, you can get results in a few weeks ) Spend 20 hrs/wk doing this properly, and you will start consistently booking demos

Everyone thinks X Cashtags is just a cool UI update. They just deployed the most dangerous financial data engine on Earth. The global iOS rollout just went live. Here is what the timeline looks like from a phone in Vietnam. Real-time $TSLA data, market caps, and crypto feeds, natively inside the keyboard. Legacy finance is heavily geofenced. If you live outside the US, accessing this data or building a portfolio usually means fighting through clunky, high-friction local brokers. X bypassed all of it. But the real play is invisible. When you type a ticker into the composer, the auto-complete triggers a live ping. X knows exactly what asset you are researching, debating, or preparing to buy. Before you even hit "Reply". Before you even execute a trade. X just built the largest retail sentiment engine in history. Hedge funds pay tens of millions for alternative data. A Bloomberg Terminal tells Wall Street what the price is doing. X tells them what 550 million people are thinking about buying right now. The actual product isn't the trading integration. It is having a monopoly on global retail intent milliseconds before the market moves.
