The roast
Vlad lists his startup as a Top-5 Global Service Company for 2025, which is a bold move considering his main business is just teaching people how to spam my inbox until I die of rage. He claims to be an AI Evangelist, but his strategy is clearly just training a bot to pretend he has friends.
About Vlad
Iām on a mission to transform bold ideas into unstoppable growth. Over the past decade, Iāve founded and scaled multiple SalesTech and MarTech venturesāincluding Belkins (a top-rated B2B Aquistion agency) and Folderly (an all-in-one Email Deliverability platform)ābecause I believe in building real solutions that fuel revenue and spark innovation. When Iām not busy refining outbound sales strategies or optimizing email performance, I invest in and advise forward-thinking tech ventures like InSoft Partners, Wordstir, GigRadar, Winc Wines, and Cloudfresh. From product creation to digital marketing, Iām all about pushing boundaries and crafting winning growth strategies that make a real impact. Iām always seeking new opportunities to collaborate, whether itās co-building the next product disruptor, exploring M&A possibilities, or strategizing with fellow founders and investors on high-potential projects. If youāre looking to scale your organization, launch a transformative venture, or explore strategic partnerships across industries, letās connect and turn big ambitions into lasting success.

People keep asking me: āHow do you actually get a CEO to reply?ā Very easy. Be a human. At least a little š CEOs receive enough: āHi {{FirstName}}, I noticedā¦ā āGiven your impressive growthā¦ā āWould love to explore synergiesā¦ā Nobody talks like that. Write like thereās a real person on the other side. Know why youāre contacting them. Say something relevant. Get to the point. And donāt pretend your āpersonalizedā AI paragraph fooled anyone. You donāt need the perfect pitch. You need to sound like someone worth replying to. That's how we do at Belkins, and that's why we're number 1.

I don't drink, don't smoke, and I love my wife. That's the whole secret behind my companies. Everyone expects some complicated formula: 5 a.m. Meditation. 100 books a year. A secret CEO routine. Mine is simpler. A clear head. The person I love by my side. And energy I don't have to waste on chaos. The longer I build businesses, the more I realize: success often comes not from what you add to your life. But from what you remove.
