The hard part is knowing who's in it, who's buying, and who can get you the intro.\nChris spent five years as a VC, putting $50M into about 50 pre-seed and seed companies. On the side, he turned his Rolodex into a sales channel. He booked 300 meetings in one year for a buy now, pay later company and got a six-figure check for it. That side business became Super Connector, a marketplace that pays people to make warm intros from their LinkedIn, calendar, and inbox.\nThe real takeaway: AI floods every inbox, so trust is the one channel it can't copy. One test run for a client, 320 emails sent from Chris's network, led to 50 meetings and 6 customers from about five minutes of work.\nTimestamps\n(02:11) From SDR to VC, and the Excel file that paid for his house\n(05:49) The 1 a.m. memo: why there's no \"network economy\" yet\n(10:37) Go vertical and obsess over supply, plus the graveyard of companies that tried this\n(13:04) His dad, an insurance agent, and a six-figure path as a connector for one business\n(18:25) How the matching works: link LinkedIn, Calendar and Gmail, enrich contacts, match to ICP and target accounts\n(20:27) Agents that police the marketplace, while a human presses the button\n(25:42) What a pre-seed investor looks for now: the founder's why and distribution before product\n(32:53) iMessage as the interface, and software that gets out of the way\n(38:15) Zoom co-pilots and tapping phones at events\n(41:29) $1,000 bounties, and 320 emails → 50 meetings → 6 customers\nFind Chris\n- superconnector.com\n- chris@superconnector.com","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/8hY4iJdp92BJonjIlukdVB7zj2Q7aUCZiKO6LVbqKdU/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM4Mzk2LzE2OTQ0/NDk3ODAtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
