👋 Hey Ultrapeople, it’s Vaibhav.

In the last Ultraupdate, I told you about:

  • streak of fails (before success?)

In Today’s Issue:

  • rising from the ashes

rising from the ashes

Two reasons, I am more bullish, I narrowed my focus (for the 9999th time) and working on the highest levers - linkedin and substacks.

Linkedin accounts I am going the traditional way, letting them age and settle down before I start, and I also bought some elite residential and mobile 4g proxies. These are ofc expensive.


But the thing is I got a little unexpected income from FTX’s funds.

Instead of reinvesting in crypto, I’m investing it all in the business.

That’s it, full force and fuel. I kinda am glad I started building this kinda broke ways so I can now supercharge it instead of the laid back pay and see if it works out.

I see it as a rebirth, and next month’s going to be exciting.

So most of my efforts now are going to be to build a robust CRM, test multi- linkedin strategy, substack and a lot of automations (DMs in particular).
