@alexolim_ HOOKS

After taking dozens of apps to #1 in the App Store, our team went back and analyzed over 100,000 social media posts to trace back what worked We found 34 hooks that brought in 100's of millions of views and more than 300 others proven to go viral.. and turned all of that into templates you can steal for free If you run a consumer app and want: - more installs - higher App Store rankings - content that lands with Gen Z Comment “HOOKS” and I’ll DM you the file.

@juliapintar Playbook

we achieved 37.6M views and 67k app downloads in february we consolidated our data from over 6,000 videos to break down the biggest insights in tech ugc: > the format that hit $1.48 CPI > how to write content like you're texting a groupchat (and why it converts) > when to post on IG instead of TT & more comment "PLAYBOOK" & i'll share the report with you

@darian_pan “Embarrassment is an underexplored emotion”

i should embarrass myself more often. and you should too.

lol

People who post incessantly about politics don’t represent the population. They represent the least intelligent, least caring subset. Data: The 2 robust predictors of online political activity are low cognitive ability and high psychopathy. Don't mistake outliers for the norm.

My most effective strategy for hard tasks: "If you don't want to [meditate, read a textbook, code], you don't have to, but you may do nothing else instead."

@annbordetsky Rohan a great name!

Naming tech startups after Lord of the Rings is a thing, there's a still a few good ones up for grabs. Someone should use these... Taken: - Palantir - Anduril - Durin - Mithril Available: - Gandalf - Galadriel - Elrond - Lindir - Aragorn - Rohan - Shire? Just thinking out loud here. Bonus points if you add "Labs" to the name

@sonofalli @Stanford @Harvard @MIT @Princeton @UCBerkeley @v0 no @Cornell ?

@cornellcent @deedydas come visit!

Everyone obsesses over Stanford & MIT. Meanwhile, Cornell 3x’d its YC admits in 3 years. The next unicorn isn’t in Palo Alto… it’s freezing in Ithaca. 🥶🦄

@cornellcent Cornell to the moon

@cornellcent WOOOO

@juliapintar Genius

an easy clap to increase conversion is to edit your app store page with each viral video you have align product messaging with content messaging i think people forget they can do this

@kirbyman01 We’d love to have you at Cornell… 👀

I offered to teach a class at Columbia on what a16z is seeing in AI. After putting me through an introduction maze, they eventually landed at "meh I think we are well covered" ✌️ High agency students need to learn things by themselves.

when jpmorgan acquired her company, there was apparently a clause in the contract that said they would cover her legal bills so when they sued her, she used that clause to spend $115,000,000 of their own money to defend against them Jpmorgan lost 175+115=290M 🤣

@cornellarmada Wow who’s that good looking chess player in the middle?

SECOND ARMADA BONFIRE

Crazy paywall hack that saved my app: Replaced "Buy Now" with "Unlock Forever" Same price. Same features. Different frame. Conversions: +47% "Buy" = Spending money "Unlock" = Gaining access "Forever" = Scarcity removal Three words changed everything.
