5 Tweet Tuesday - June 10 2025

💎  5 Tweet Tuesday 💎 

Out of 500M daily tweets, only 5 deserve your attention.

Here’s this week’s starting lineup:

#1 💎 

Rule #3 of marketing - don’t say what your product is, say what it does for the customer

Also, this guy’s name has so much potential. Drop the Jon and just go by “Yong Fook” and your net worth will quadruple in the next 24 months.

#2 💎 

I (unfortunately) attended a funeral this weekend (rest in peace Rahul).

After hearing the eulogies, I drove home and thought about what I would want people to say at my funeral.

What I hope people say:

  • Truly a great dad to his kids 

  • Someone who brought life into the room when he walks in (energy, laughter) 

  • Someone who would go out of their way to make others feel good

I think I do the first two, but the third is only aspirational right now. So I’m going to make an effort to make it true.

#3 💎 

“Wells Fargo analyst”? Sorry, I think you meant to say: Wells Fargo Legend.

#4 💎 

This is going to be my new go-to-diss for the summer.

#5 💎 

😂

#6 💎 

Evan Williams has one of my favorite all-time quotes when it comes to building businesses:

“Take a human desire, preferably one that has been around for a really long time… identify that desire and use modern technology to take out steps.

- Evan Williams

That’s exactly what Mercury does. It takes one of the most basic human needs - managing money - and removes all the friction that’s been part of it for decades.

No more clunky interfaces. No more running to the bank for simple tasks. No more wasting time juggling a million tabs just to see the financial health of your company.

Mercury simplifies business banking by cutting out the unnecessary steps, so you can get back to running your business.

That’s why Mercury’s so great. And it’s already being used by 200,000 ambitious founders.
