Hey X/Twitter, I'm not active here but if you stumble across my profile or happen to follow, I have a new Substack on startup founder mistakes located at SaltandWisdom.com

I exited my fintech startup 18 months ago. Have been doing some reflecting. It took me 5 years to hit $1M in ARR. The first 2 years were so bad, I literally hid them from investor charts. Here’s how (not) to launch a startup: 🧵

The truth: you’ll fail your way into focus. If you’re launching: 1. Don’t build to silence critics. 2. Don’t hedge. 3. Don’t expect instant culture. Win customers. Learn fast. Then scale.

10 basis points of market share isn't the end game, but I love the milestone my team at @StackSource has reached! stacksource.com/blog/stackso…

All these posts about #ChatGPT made me curious. Could this help with #commercialrealestate? So, I asked it to write a deal summary. Wow.

Really glad this was an April Fool's joke for us based on what's happening in the Crypto market these days. Real estate is facing turbulence, but it's a real, hard, cash-flowing asset class that's hard to steal or defraud.
We're extremely excited to announce the fresh, new direction for our company. Commercial real estate has been great, but there's a bigger opportunity for our startup in #NFT financing! blog.stacksource.com/stackso…

I'm reflecting on past interactions with unhealthy #leadership, and enablers. My view of "Yes Men" that surround unhealthy leaders was always akin to the "suck up". Then I realized I was wrong. There's a second type, and it's actually more common. medium.com/@timmilazzo/two-d…
Back home in Florida today after a whirlwind trip to NYC for #CREtechNewYork2022. Old friends, new friends, and the nostalgia of visiting the city that birthed my career and my venture @StackSource. Thanks @DiscoverCREtech and New York!

I'm in NYC for #CretechNewYork2022. Anyone else in town that wants to catch up in person this week?
Wow, I wasn't always sure we'd make it this far. Other days, I thought we'd be here quicker. But this week, we finally surpassed $1 Billion transacted on the #fintech we're building. Someone asked how I'm celebrating. I told him, "by running analysis!" stacksource.com/blog/the-dat…

My latest blog post breaking down the need to underwrite vacancy, even when a property is currently 100% fully occupied.
Vacancy factors are almost always considered by a lender, even when the property is fully occupied. This week on the StackSource blog, CEO Tim Milazzo explains why, and what to expect when looking to finance a fully occupied building. hubs.la/Q01bJ5ww0 #CRE #multifamily
