A random dude just cold outreached to my girlfriend on LinkedIn.
He went from "Hi" to "I like you"
in less than 5 seconds.

Now, I’m not angry.
She’s damn pretty. Of course people will shoot their shot.
That’s alright.

But if you’re gonna do cold outreach… at least do it right.

Here are the 3 mistakes this guy did that killed his deal.
If you're an agency owner, freelancer or a B2B founder, read this:

//1: Zero rapport building

No context.
No relevance.
No curiosity.

I can't tell if this voice sounds like an AI model because this post was somehow generated by Copilot, or because Business Bros just read too much AI output, or because the AIs are designed to sound like Business Bros.

    That's how academic papers are starting to feel, too. A generation of freshmen are using bullet points and headers... even in written essays.

    To be fair it does make it much easier to grade but my take home assignment grading is giving me paranoia.
