CZ Communication Tips 2025
I received hundreds of messages through Reachme.io, which I find incredibly helpful. However, many don't know how to communicate effectively with busy, impatient people like me. Here are some tips.
1. State your ask in the first sentence.
Start by clearly stating your request, like seeking investment, so I know what to focus on immediately. Donāt start with an intro, background, description, and only make an ask in the end. I wonāt know what to read for.
2. Make your ask explicit.Ā
Many add vague asks like āwould like your supportā or ācollaboration.ā I wouldnāt know what you want. But if you say, āwe are raising $500k at a $5m valuation,ā itās clear.
3. Make it concise.
Long messages are easy but show an unorganized mind. Short, concise writing is harder but easier for the reader.
4. Ask precise questions.Ā
Avoid broad questions like "What do you think about the crypto industry?" I address those in media interviews, so searching online for answers is better. Open-ended questions are tough to answer repeatedly.
5. Donāt waste money.
I wonāt tell you which coin to buy.I wonāt evaluate a project for you.I wonāt interact with your meme coin just because you asked.I wonāt jump on a call.I wonāt give you crypto. I donate in bulk, but I canāt verify that you aren't a scammer individually.I wonāt follow you just because you asked. It may come naturally.
6. If you want to recommend a project to me, you can write concisely why it is good, I will read it.
7. I would greatly appreciate any valuable feedback you may give me, and I will even pay you back.
8. I am looking for builders who can build. I am looking for talent.
