P2A

Your prospects don't care about your new AI integration. They care about what that integration allows them to stop doing. Stop selling the dashboard. Start selling the 10 hours a week they get back. Stop selling the algorithm. Start selling the reduction in churn. If your outbound copy reads like a release note, you're doing it wrong. Sell the outcome, not the tool.

@TTrimoreau Just stop it

What’s the fastest way to stop wasting time ?

@tomcrawshaw01 BLUEPRINT

I made a free Claude Code Blueprint. Most Claude Code courses are tutorials. The Blueprint is interactive. You install Claude Code, open the folder I send you, type "Start Lesson 1," and Claude teaches you while you use Claude Code itself. 60 minutes from start to finish. You end with a real tool deployed on the internet, all for free. Watching tutorials doesn't teach you Claude Code. Using it does. Whenever I talk to non-technical folks about using Claude Code, the same problem keeps coming up. They install it, watch a few explainers, then quit when nothing they're seeing maps to what they actually want to build. The fix isn't another explainer. It's putting your hands on the tool from minute one. That's what the Blueprint is for. By the end of one short interactive session, you'll know: - How a single slash command can research any company in 60 seconds, instead of 30 minutes by hand - The trick to getting three Claude agents working in parallel inside one session - The CLAUDE .md pattern that makes Claude predictable, not chaotic - How to put your first Claude Code build on the internet, no terminal needed The tool you build is yours. A public URL on the open internet, the kind you can text to a friend. Comment "BLUEPRINT" below and I'll DM it to you (must be following)

SaaS founders love to say their product is for "everyone." If your product is for everyone, your messaging is for no one. When you try to sell to the enterprise CIO, the mid-market VP, and the startup founder with the same cold email, you sound generic to all three. Pick a lane. Define the specific pain point for a specific buyer. Niche down your outbound until it hurts. Then niche down again.

Nobody responds to "just wanted to touch base." That phrase has zero value. It signals that you have nothing new to say but you want something from them anyway. Every touchpoint needs a reason to exist. A new insight. A relevant trigger. A question they haven't been asked before. If you can't answer "why am I sending this today specifically" then better to not send.

@rcmisk Find email, write good copy that makes them want to reply. Highlight their bottleneck that your product/service solves - follow up with value

everyone says "build something people want." nobody explains how to get it in front of those people once you've built it.

@TTrimoreau Time management is a serious skill. Has to be coupled with discipline though

You have enough time. You’re just not using it right. Agree or not?

The fastest way to kill a deal is to send a proposal too early. A proposal before trust is built is just a price sheet. And price sheets get compared. The moment you're being compared on price, you've already lost the value conversation. Earn the proposal. Make them ask for it. When they're asking you for a proposal, they've already decided they want to work with you. Now you're just agreeing on terms.

Your prospect doesn't care about your process. They care about their problem. The moment you start explaining how your service works, you've lost the thread. Nobody buys a process. They buy a result. Stop leading with the how. Start leading with the what. "What if you never had to manually pull a lead list again?" "What if your outbound was running while you were focused on closing?" Sell the outcome. Explain the process after they say yes.

Most cold emails fail before they're even read. The subject line is generic. The opener is about you. The ask is a 30-minute call. You've already lost. The best cold email doesn't feel like a cold email. It feels like a message from someone who actually did their homework. One specific observation about their business. One question about a problem they actually have. One low-friction ask. That's it. That's the whole formula.

@TTrimoreau Ai tool hopping, to me this is the risk of selling Ai automation in and of itself. Because there will always be the next tool that comes out. Instead, it's perhaps better to use these Ai tools to sell your specific service

I remembered when n8n was all the rage. Now I barely hear about them anymore. What changed? Something coming ?

There is no "right time" to reach out. If you wait for the perfect moment i.e when they have budget, when they're actively looking, when the stars align, you'll be waiting forever. Your job isn't to find people who are ready to buy today. Your job is to find people who have the problem you solve, and educate them on why it's costing them money to ignore it. Create the urgency. Don't wait for it

@Im_IrushiK How did the creator of Claude build Claude without Claude?

How did he build Facebook without Claude?

@RaminNasibov Truly a phemenon

I saw a guy at coffeeshop today. No iPhone. No laptop. No tablet. Just sitting there. Drinking his coffee.

@heshie Whats the wattage on that power bank?

The Anker power bank has to be one of my best investments ever, it allows me to work from anywhere without having to worry about power

Sending 1,000 emails a day feels productive. Not necessarily is. It's just busywork. Activity is measuring how many dials you made. Progress is measuring how many meaningful conversations you started. If your team is hitting their activity metrics but missing their revenue targets, the problem isn't effort. It's strategy. You don't need more dials. You need better targeting, sharper messaging, and a clearer value proposition. Stop measuring sweat. Start measuring outcomes.

When a prospect says "We already use a competitor," that's not an objection. That's information. An objection is a reason not to buy. Information is a data point you can use to pivot the conversation. "Makes sense. Most teams using [Competitor] love the reporting, but struggle with the integration speed. Have you run into that?" If you treat every response as a hard no, you'll lose deals that were just waiting for the right question. Stop defending your product. Start diagnosing their reality.

@arshanmahmad How much more lonely is it even when you come across Muslim founders but them blending in too heavily with non Muslim founders in the sense that Islamic guidelines aren't adhered to

Being a Muslim founder in Silicon Valley is a specific kind of lonely. You're in rooms where everyone's talking about their YC batch, their angel checks, their network. And you're thinking about how none of your uncles understand what a startup is, how your parents still ask when you're getting a "real job," and how the founder communities you see don't quite feel like they were built for you. You code-switch. You keep your head down. You build. But you build alone. I know because I lived it. That loneliness isn't just uncomfortable, it's expensive. No warm intros to the right investors. No founder friends who understand the specific weight of building something while carrying a community's expectations. No one to call when your fundraise is falling apart during Ramadan. Friday exists because that loneliness shouldn't be the default. 3,000+ Muslim founders, investors, and builders. YC alumni. HF0 fellows. South Park Commons members. Angel investors writing real checks. A community that actually shows up for each other. If you've been building alone, you don't have to. Join our community. fridayhq dot co

Building your own outbound system is like building your own CRM. You can do it, but why would you? Founders spend 40 hours a week scraping data, writing copy, setting up domains, and managing replies. That's not selling. That's administration. Every hour you spend tinkering with a sequencing tool is an hour you aren't closing deals. The goal isn't to build the best outbound machine. The goal is to generate revenue. Stop being a mechanic. Start being a closer.

@nathan_covey Claude Opus Chef?

Thank you Claude
