Ivan Ivanka

🚨 Hiring our first Community and Growth lead at Markster. Downtown SF office by default (remote only if you are absolutely cracked). Just crossed $1M TTM. Signed our first major enterprise client. New clients onboarding every single week. We build the sales and marketing system most service firms never had and couldnt afford. Now we need someone to own the top of the funnel end to end in the heart of the SF startup scene. Three things you run: 1/ Events people actually talk about on Monday morning and Patagonia vest folks fight over to get in. 2/ A community of operators who close real business not a Discord of spectators. 3/ LTO funnels that turn cold traffic into qualified pipeline. You report direct to me. Sexy comp real ownership fat equity and a team already shipping revenue every week. Downtown SF in person energy. Killer views and the grind that only happens here. DM me or reply with: 1. One growth win you are most proud of (event community play or funnel that moved the needle) 2. Why Markster Pls RT if you know someone built for this. Amateurs hustle. Pros systemize. Markster.

thanks @WisprFlow for the giggles

can anyone guess what I'm working on 🤣

I distinctively remember a scene from Space Force that is fitting

so nice that we are @github Enterprise customers and OUR ENTIRE PIPELINE IS DEAD because let's do vibe deployments

we're in Europe with Markster signing our biggest deal ever- and if you're around, I'd love to grab a coffee or a cake

the part nobody tells you about exits and "scaling": you can win on the org chart and lose your nervous system I did both. writing about what I'd unwind

6 years ago: 52 FTEs, 600+ contractors, insomnia, a dead 7-year relationship today: 0 employees, 59 AI agents, 32 years old started writing about what i'd do differently: theivanivanka dot com

40% of AI projects will fail by 2027. Not because the AI is bad. Because most teams put lipstick on the donkey. Going live now: 4 signals from this week + what we built so we don't get caught. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@AniC_dev it’s pure vibes, but I have my human CTO to do that part 😆 @attila_sukosd is it okay if we replace you with a Gen Z tamagotchi?

@TheIvanIvanka who said u cant do both x.com/AniC_dev/statu…

hackathons are dead so we're throwing a Minecraft LAN in SF instead true builders were once gamers come, saturday, and have fun again

@briandecoded @attila_sukosd nah, we just switched employees into agents

@TheIvanIvanka @attila_sukosd savage beasts

Will you pay $100/mo for Claude Code?

@briandecoded last 6 months we spent $20-30k/mo on avg just me and @attila_sukosd

@TheIvanIvanka How much you spend on average?

@StephNass Playbook

Founders raising in 2026, this is for you: I built a visual playbook to help you raise your first round without wasting the whole year. This is your step-by-step action plan from finding VCs to closing your round. I wish I had this playbook at my first raise. 👉 Comment "playbook" for free access Here's what's inside: → Understand the VC game (what VCs really want, where they invest) → Build your investor list (where to find relevant VCs, how to follow up) → Plan out your raise (SAFE vs equity, how much to raise) → Access investors (warm intros vs cold emails, how to get inbound leads) If you're raising in 2026, you need this playbook. 👉 Comment "playbook" for free access (Make sure we're connected to receive my DM) Repost this and help out a founder in your network
