the best place to start your career in any GTM function is at a desk making cold calls. there is absolutely nothing glamorous about it but you are forced into resilience via constant rejection. this is the #1 skill required in BD.

my #1 piece of GTM advice for new web3 teams is to establish trust by ruthlessly associating (via partnerships, joint marketing) with top brands in the industry. everything (KOLs, ambassador programs, social community / awareness) comes downstream of this.

crypto BD productivity arc: year 1 (low): talk to everyone. soak up info like a sponge. hold lots of meetings. year 2 (medium): build rolodex of trusted contacts. hold fewer meetings. year 3 (high): use trust to spur action. replace most meetings with TG messages.

one of the best things about the PoBD chat is that when someone shares a major milestone for their team with the group (i.e. fundraise, product launch, product upgrade) everyone sets aside their differences and congratulates that person on their success. study this.
