…………………………………………

I bootstrapped my business to $12M ARR.
But this time I’m going VC. Here's why:

Debate of all time? Bootstrap vs. VC
I am experiencing both.

Freedom is the # 1 currency. 
Those who have it are beyond rich.

But tech transformation has never been faster.
Speed to market has never been more key.

Bootstrapping gives:
↳ Control
↳Slow, steady growth
↳Focus on profitability
↳Minimal external pressures

Venture capital offers:
↳ Deep expertise
↳ Resources
↳ Networks expanded
↳Capital and speed injection

Neither is right or wrong.
But one option is right for you.

For us?

Bootstrapping taught discipline and efficiency.
Yet, to accelerate in this fast-paced AI world?
VC are the keys to the rocket ship.

Align your strategy with your vision.

Don’t cave to what’s “cool.”
That might change tomorrow.

………………………………………..

What’s working for us to engage VCs? 

Personalized landing pages.
For every VC we reach out to. 
Build in seconds. Refined in mins.

Releasing soon to the world.
But maybe available for sneak peek via DM…

What do you say- Bootstrap or VC?

AI's next biggest innovation:

(key stepping stone between ChatGPT and AGI)

AI Agents.

Aka a whole new way to interact with AI. 

Before: 1 question. 1 task completed by ChatGPT.
Now: 1 question. Many tasks completed by agent.

Artificial intelligence is getting smarter here!

Instead of AI acting as a simple answer retriever.
It will become more of a collaborator on projects.

Or coding intern.
Or creative assistant.
Or marketing associate. 

What it means for marketing (or any industry)?

New unimaginable levels of efficiency tapped into.

For example:

You: “Make me personalized landing pages.”
AI: Many agents work together to complete.

Agent for web search.
Agent for analysis.
Agent for design.
Agent for copy.

Done in minutes. 

And yes. This is possible today.
We built it: HiveGPT 

It’s free to play with.
Feel free to check out.

Excited or nervous for future of AI?

The most valuable asset is your time.

Owning it makes you a trillionaire. 

True wealth defined ? Your time > physical belongings.
Ultimate key to happiness? Experiences over things.
What’s realized? You unlock the ultimate luxury:

Life.

You are CAPABLE of living life on your own terms. 
Nothing else is more enriching than this. 

No amount of material wealth can surpass this freedom.

When you prioritize your time... Life enriches in immeasurable ways.

Your days become more meaningful.
Your choices become more impactful.
Your moments become more precious.

Chase not the fleeting satisfaction of material gains. 
Win the everlasting contentment of time freedom.

Not automating event process? You are wasting $.

(so here is how to fix this)

Events = Hours spent, repeated tasks, same old.
But tech, especially AI, is changing the game.

Not capitalizing on this transformation?
It's like ignoring the internet.

Key steps forward:

1. Strategic Investment: 

Pause and plan. 
Identify areas/tech to streamline. 
The upfront effort now saves time later.

2. Unified Approach: 

Way to capture ROI? Develop global framework.

All events under one strategy, delivering consistent insights.

3. Harness Data: 

Understanding event impact is crucial. 

Yet, many struggle with basic metrics:
How many events happened, how much was spent, who attends?

Know your #s, develop a plan, and succeed across all event formats.
Let's use tech to streamline, create efficiencies and get max ROI.

My #1 mentor? My father.

No matter the challenge at hand. He has a solution. 

The one lesson that I have harnessed most from him?

Build yourself.
Build your boat.
Build your team.

For when the tide comes in,
You are ready to ride the waves.

Build daily. Grow daily. Rise daily.

You can do anything that you set your mind to.

Break it: Adobe teaming up with ChatGPT!

(video content will never be the same)

The question we should all be asking?
What will AI NOT impact? 

OpenAI broke the internet with Sora.

Now Adobe wants in on the action.

- AI in Premiere Pro: extend clips, edit scenes, add B-roll.
- Firefly Video: new AI model for diverse media effects.
- AI audio edits in May: smart fades, tags, better waveforms.

Adobe is also boldly exploring OpenAI partnership. 

Video creation suite + AI = More accessibility 
Editing + animation + rendering = Streamlined
Every video creator, level regardless = Empowered 

Adobe’s stepping up their game here.

Key to ensure they stay ahead.

(Along with everyone else)

Marketers, agencies owners, founders.
Implement or fall behind. Time is now!

HiveGPT can help with content, landing pages and events to use these videos, let's go!

2021: Grew to $12M ARR in 1 year.
2024: ChatGPT brings...


Many of us have witnessed huge tech transformations.

↳ 2000: Internet
↳ 2020: All virtual 
↳ 2023: Gen AI explosion

Each time? Big trend= Big change= Big opportunity.

Saw massive success with Social27, rode the “All Virtual” wave.
And now it’s “AI innovation” time.

Trends change. But the fundamentals don’t.

Here is the Trifecta Playbook:

1. Identify and catch the big waves:

Zoom's rise and the drop in streaming costs were on our radar. 
We baked that goodness right into our events platform.
Brought virtual/hybrid to countless events globally.

For AI, ChatGPT changed everything in 2023.
AI App dev costs dropped, doors opened.
We dove right into building and releasing.

The UN was our first customer.

2. Your team is your everything:

Build your tribe to build your success.
Late nights. Strategic pivots. All-in. 
Worth it with a killer team.

3. Speed is your best friend:

Doors of opportunity will always open. 
But they won’t stay for long.

As soon as Opportunity presents itself,
Innovate and work towards the goal - like crazy.

2024: AI is the BIG wave.
Let's all ride this BIG wave and win.

How are you innovating with AI right now?

………………………………….

My latest endeavor: HiveGPT
AI agents for hyper-personalized marketing content and landing pages.
Campaigns in minutes not months.

Could AI create a one-person unicorn ($1B)?
(Sam Altman thinks so)
 
Silicon Valley sees the technology ‘waiting for us.’
 
Sam Altman says that a one-person billion dollar company,
would have been unimaginable without AI and now will happen.
 
That’s amazing!
Now, coming back to the present:
 
Yes, it's possible to bootstrap your idea to MVP.
We did that with HiveGPT.
 
AI for us:
It's a pivotal team member. 
It’s a growth partner.
It’s a mentor.
 
What tools did we use:
Will do a post on Monday (April 15).
 
Were it not for AI tools
We wouldn’t be able to build with 50% less budget and 5X speed.
 
So, why are we thinking of going VC now?
Why not be the “small team” unicorn?
 
→ Relationships
→Wide Network
→Access to deep Expertise
 
Ride the wave!

ChatGPT changed everything.

But THIS is the next biggest game changer:

ChatGPT = Complete any 1 task
AI agents = Complete any multiple tasks

In 2023, B2B marketing and Gen AI became best friends.
Especially in content development.

Gen AI tools saved us a ton of time.
Just input info and out comes your blog post, press release, etc.

But there's more to a mkt campaign than just content.

Imagine this:

You input your creative brief, branding guidelines, goals
The swarm of autonomous AI agents get to work.

They fill content templates, create hyper-personalized landing pages, and even build an event site. All in minutes…

And it doesn't stop there.
These AI agents identify and score leads based on data from landing pages, events, and your CRM.

Even mobilize your sales teams with prebuilt, intent-ready comms.
All to land that crucial call.

This is 2024.
This is HiveGPT.
