The style is conversational, direct, and informal but not sloppy; it blends a “smart Twitter/LinkedIn poster” vibe with flashes of heartfelt patriotism and personal vulnerability.

It is primarily informative and opinionated, with persuasive and motivational undertones, and occasional humor/sarcasm.

It feels like a confident, opinionated tech/professional who also deeply identifies with American civic identity and sports fandom.

Uses slang and shorthand: “s/o”, “etc etc”, “pulling in bank”, “killing your sales team”.

Mixes fully correct sentences with deliberate informality and broken structures.

Can pivot into solemn or reverent tones when discussing America, tragedy, or death (e.g., 9/11, a murder, “God Bless The 🇺🇸”).

First-person perspective with clear identity markers: immigrant/Muslim, American patriot, startup/sales/tech insider, sports fan.

Self-assured, willing to make strong claims: “Unpopular opinion: The best salespeople don’t work for...”.

Empathetic and humane when describing suffering or inclusion; strongly condemns violence and discrimination.

Medium-to-high energy on opinion/tech/startup takes: decisive, punchy.

Reflective and somber when touching on trauma or loss (9/11, murder).

Occasionally playful and high-energy in sports posts and meme/ASCII posts.

Often ends posts with a resonant, emotionally charged single line (e.g. “God Bless The 🇺🇸”, “Now is a good time to get some cash on hand.”).

Short, declarative one-liners for emphasis.

Rhetorical framings: “Unpopular opinion:”, “What is PGTMF?”, “So the only 2 ways this ends is:”.

In-line definitions in parentheses: “P-GTM-F. (Product - GTM - Fit)”.

Parallel structures: “The power of America. The power of its citizens. The power of inclusion...”.

Questions to the audience (e.g., “Who is the biggest, diehard 49er fan...?”).

‘You’ language in advisory/educational posts to founders/sales leaders.

First person singular: personal anecdotes (“I was in 7th grade...”, “I just kicked a 27 yd field goal…”).

Second person when advising or warning: “Most SLG products are valuable only after the customer puts in a bunch of time… You cannot expect…”.

Third person to generalize: “The best salespeople are...”.

Direct imperatives when advising: “Instead, here’s what Founders should do:”, followed by ordered steps.

Mild but clear prescriptive tone: “Now is a good time to get some cash on hand.” (soft command framed as a suggestion).

Rarely hedges; when he does, it’s calculated (“Unfortunately I think 2 is the more likely scenario.”).
