Lessons I Learned Writing and Self-Publishing a Children's Book About VC | Ep 94

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1902723/open_sms] Hi everyone! In this episode, I’m doing something a little different — walking you through the three phases of self-publishing my first book, Seed to Harvest, a children’s book about venture capital. I’ll share the full behind-the-scenes: how I came up with the idea, what the writing and publishing process looked like, how much money I made (real numbers!), and how this book helped launch Behind Genius Ventures. In this episode, I cover: * How to validate book ideas like a startup * What it actually costs to publish a book (and how I crowdfunded it) * How writing Seed to Harvest helped me raise a $5M venture fund * How being online (especially on Twitter) played a major role in all of this * What I’d do differently next time Whether you’re curious about writing a book, starting a fund, or just love a good build-in-public story, I hope this helps you take the leap on your own creative project. 📍Follow me:  Twitter (X): @paigefinnn [https://twitter.com/paigefinnn] Email: paige@behindgeniusventures.com Website: behindgeniusventures.com [https://www.behindgeniusventures.com] Book: Seed to Harvest: A Simple Explanation of Venture Capital available on Amazon Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1902723/support]

Tom McLeod on Startups, Tech, and Creative Financing | Ep 93

Send a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1902723/open_sms] Tom McLeod isn’t your typical founder or investor. He bootstrapped a SaaS to 100k users, built a League of Legends app used by millions, sold it to Tencent, and now backs businesses at the intersection of identity, community, and cashflow. Think: car clubs, not cloud infra. In this episode of Seed to Harvest, Tom breaks down: • The 3 founder archetypes he’s seen across cycles • Why he hires founders (even though they always leave) • What he learned going from bootstrapped to venture-backed • How he thinks about underwriting non-venture-scale returns It’s a fresh take for anyone rethinking capital models or scouting overlooked operator talent.
