@mcagney @Figure I’m thinking it’s the opposite of a ribbon cutting: it’s connecting two golden chain links together, which symbolizes the stock going “on chain.” The whole thing with the same buildup as the nasdaq button push count down, confetti etc.

When @Figure begins trading blockchain native equity on the 18th, we need the equivalent of a NYSE bell ringing or Nasdaq button-pushing event. How should companies herald in their first native trade on blockchain?

Amazing things happening in AI Video! @huang_song_ thanks for inspiring me!

@biztechgames What would make you want to raise?

@ottopohl Bootstrapped for five years so far. May raise at some point, but no urgency.

Are you raising or bootstrapping? I want to see where the majority are right now. Think it could be an interesting comparison. #buildinpublic

Executing is only as important as your marketing. People need to know what and why you are building!

What is content you think is currently missing on X/Twitter? I see a lot on personal brands, some marketing, coding, etc. But I feel like there is so much overlapping content and not a lot on more niche topics. #buildinpublic

@jake_henry1010 What is their reasoning? I would assume most prefer C-Corps...

What is your goal for this upcoming week? #buildinpublic

@buhler_evan You got this!

Building a marketing strategy should be fun. It should be built on the reason you were inspired. What inspired you? #buildinpublic

@themkmaker That is super interesting! Good luck!

@ottopohl The gap in the market that there is no direct alternative of Typeform which is affordable. Now the Youform’s messaging is entirely around this fact.

@strmziai Soo many people are talking about great marketing hacks. Honestly what I would do is search marketing in the search bar then you get all your content much faster haha

@ottopohl Haha I disagree, i'd rather stick to coding, though I can't hide from it forever, do you have any good sources/people on twitter I can learn from?

@SachinBagri YES!!

@ottopohl That’s why storytelling is considered one of the most powerful skills to learn today

Marketing is… Telling a story, Inspiring, Creating Value & so much more. It is important for your success.

@RobbertvanEmpel 100%

Be as clear as you can about what you do, what you stand for, and which market you’re trying to reach. Really try to nail that down. If you can’t explain what you do in two sentences, then it will be hard to succeed with paid marketing. #buildinpublic

@r_kersbergen Totally! You got this!

@ottopohl I'm trying to figure that out for me I've been in marketing for 14 years from Google Ads, to strategy, fCMO and a lot of SEO So if you say you are good in all of that, people tend to think you are not a specialist in any of those areas. But it's 14yrs and 150+ clients

@skreepao What are you building?
