So last night was a good time<\/div>\n
Networking is fun. A question that I got twice was, \u201chey your friends with David Kirpatrick\u201c. What they were thinking is that David Kirkpatrick said positive things about me in the realm of how we know each other which is #BookClub<\/div>\n
as a venture capitalist, I am helping you with VC funding by first transferring to you knowledge capital. How efficient will you be with 5 genius books. cross the chasm, business model generation, lean startup, what they don’t teach you at Harvard business school and four steps to the Epiphany<\/div>\n
#You\u2019reWelcome. What is true and massively counterintuitive is that David Kirkpatrick is my mentor<\/div>\n
David Kirkpatrick Austin library book club is the anchor franchise. The satellite concept to David Kirpatrick book club is, \u201cLarry Chiang minimum viable book club, pop-up book club at a nightclub\u201c. David Kirkpatrick\u2019s book club involves 60 to 90 books.. My book club in a nightclub is two books that are the same book.<\/div>\n
When two or more people are gathered that both or all have the same book, magic happens. I did this with four books in Las Vegas during the Super Bowl week of networking parties. For $12.95 books were more potent than a $2.5 million sports illustrated party, that was a scam.<\/div>\n
My \u201cminimum viable book club\u201c is a book club where 2-7+ people meet to talk about one book. We do this in a nightclub.<\/div>\n
Hot women will literally come up to me and say with their eyes<\/div>\n
OMG, my vagina is wet because you know how to read a book<\/div>\n
Have you been able to read other books?<\/div>\n
Your brain must be super powered if you can pay attention for 50 minutes and read an entire book<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
