More big-tech billionaires backing next-gen nuclear startups. There are different reasons that nuclear energy and startup funding is soaring this year. The key reason is the Ukraine war. Dependency on Russian oil is now showing its downside. Energy prices are going to the moon. I am fueling now my car for more than $100 every time which is crazy. Governments around the world are now trying to keep the lights on with nuclear energy. Japan is considering building new reactors and restarting ones that had been shuttered following the Fukushima nuclear crisis. The UK, the Czech Republic, and Pol ..read more

There are lots of guides out there to help you prepare for Series A. I want to prepare you for another path. Get investors to reach out to you for the Series A round! I know that perhaps the best way to raise Series A is to start your outreach campaign and reach out to as many investors and VCs as you can. I still encourage you to do so. Nothing wrong with that. However, I want to give you a framework to attract investors and VCs to reach out to you proactively as well. You see. . . VCs and investors are always looking for great startups. I mean, literally. Some of them always are in search o ..read more

NFTs will open up Venture Capital investment for everyday investors and also create liquidity for them. NFTs and cryptos are on a rollercoaster from last year! NFTs were hyped like crazy and changed everything. I was part of the hype as well. I think I invested in 12 NFTs most of which are now worth nothing! Now that things are cooled off, we can have a better look at what just happened and how the future of venture capital will change. I am assuming you know what NFT is. NFTs are essentially proof of ownership. You can own anything in the real world and then have an NFT to represent you as t ..read more

I am going to show you how to build a network of investors from the ground up with zero experience. First of all, why did I do this? Becuase my success actually depends on it. I was always thinking by myself, it will be a great skill to send bunch of emails and raise money for people. That is the ultimate impact. Similar to many other missions, there are some caviats. Don't network just for the sake of it. Deliver actual tangible value to investors. Your success depends on your ability to build trust and open big doors. Be a pro at delivering value. For VCs, this is either: - Deal Flow - L.P ..read more

When contacting investors, you should illustrate that you can multiply their money within a specific period of time, and now is the best time to invest in your concept. Just to make this clear, having a list of angel investors is not the end of the process. It is the beginning. You are free to send emails and build sequences to target them to raise money. However, put yourself in their shoes. How do you feel if someone reaches out to you out of the blue and asks for funding? I am not saying do not reach out. I am a big fan of cold outreach. However, if you are not in a rush and targeting to r ..read more

If you master the art of short content, at least your content gets read. Clive Palmer is worth $2.1B according to Forbes. His source of wealth is coming from mining and his own businesses. He is among Australia's top 20 richest people. Great guy. Here is the back story. I was looking for ways to increase my income and found that one of the best ways to do that is to ask successful people. As simple as that. So here is my question on Facebook: And sure enough, he responded back: Look at the time stamp. He responded back after 3 hours. The takeaway from this story is: To keep your content ri ..read more

Even if you do it wrong, you still get lots of attention and brand recognition. Here is the step-by-step document and path that I applied to generate 9 leads in 2 weeks via content marketing. You may argue that this is not that many leads. The reality is that I rather have fewer leads but close more, rather than the other way around. Conversion matters. I closed 3 of them in 3 days (valued more than $100k in the pipeline). You can replicate what I did in your niche and expect the same level of success. Even if you do this the wrong way, or are not willing to spend the same level of energy and ..read more

Are you sure your product is really B2B? Today the lines between business and consumers are blurring every day. There's a huge market of creators and freelancers or small businesses of 1 to 4 people that is not real B2B but neither B2C. I urge you to think about the market of PROSUMERS. You always can think about re-positioning brands. All the big consulting firms urge this mindset shift from a decade ago: B2B and B2C are blurring into H2H (human to human). Of course, exceptions are the rule: Cisco is clearly B2B, Salesforce the same... But Monday.com can be used by freelancers as well as big ..read more

I'm sick of all the "hustle" and "jargon-filled" business podcasts out there. However, these podcasts are reshaping the way I see and think about business. The hustle culture is eating the internet. Everyone is talking about working hard, grinding, hustling, and tearing your ass off to get a result. What exactly does it mean? I do not understand it TBH. Mean you have to work more hours during the day? Meaning, more marketing? How about "Less is More"? Anyway, it has been a few months since I immersed myself in a few podcasts. The first one that I want to talk about is My First Million. Tons o ..read more
