42章经信念感与硅谷顶尖孵化器的奇遇：赴美三月，实现千万刀 ARR｜对谈 ACE Studio 创始人 Joe如果有人问你，给你三个月的时间，你能把目前手上负责的业务数据翻十倍吗？相信大多数人都会觉得这是痴人说梦，但这件事 ACE Studio 做到了。而他们做到的原因不是他们本来就能，而是有人让他们相信了这件事。这就是我们今天要讲的故事，这就是信念感这三个字的力量。去年 5 月份我们做过一期 PMF 主题的节目，ACE Studio 的创始人 Joe 聊了很多他们的产品是如何在美国市场找到 PMF 的。当时他们刚刚开启付费半年，就已经做到了很不错的月收入。这次我们又把他请来，是因为才刚过去了大半年，他们的收入竟然就增长了 10 倍，已经成功跻身千万美金 ARR 第一梯队。能做到这点，是因为他们去了硅谷一家很有名的孵化器 HF0，并在那边搞了 3 个月的封闭式开发。这期播客中，Joe 就毫无保留地分享了 HF0 到底是怎么奏效的、他们在 HF0 的实际体验与收获，和实现 10 倍增长的具体经验（比如他们是怎么一招就让公司一夜之间收入翻倍的？）。如果你对 Joe 的参加孵化器的经验，或者对去美国参加类似的组织感兴趣，可以添加我的微信 qukai42，42章经今年也会组织更多中美连接的活动和事情，欢迎你用各种方式加入进来。【人类博物馆】导游：曲凯，42章经创始人20 号珍藏：Joe，ACE Studio 创始人。ACE Studio 是一款面向专业音乐制作人和创作者的 AI 音乐工作站，致力于用 AI 重新定义音乐创作，自 2023 年 10 月上线以来发展迅猛，月收入已达 80 万美金。【时光机】Part1 HF0 为什么有效 01:23 先回顾下入选这家美国知名孵化器的过程 03:48 英语不好会是阻力吗？ 05:34 3000 进 10 的概率下，HF0 为什么选中了你们？ 07:19 HF0 和其它孵化器不太一样 08:46 HF0 没教我们怎么做业务，这事也不该别人来教 10:35 最关键的第一步：HF0 给我们注入了「一定能猛涨」的信念感 12:23 这种信念感很难自我激发 14:23 开营后，HF0 营造了一个专注于增长的氛围 16:25 最大的压力和最深的恐惧就是「别丢脸」… 17:44 这种氛围本质上改变了我想问题的方式 19:17 也让我们涌起了「别让大家觉得华人不行」的责任感 21:38 一直 build「憋大招」可能并不成立 22:40 从 HF0 出来后，还能保持在其中的状态吗？ 23:55 我们马上要复刻 HF0 的体验 Part2 3 个月涨 10 倍的具体实践 26:50 五周过去都没怎么增长的时候，信念感崩塌了吗？ 27:43 绝境逢生的戏剧化转折：我们试了一招，第二天日收入直接 double 28:51 Quora 创始人教会了我们一种思考方法 30:00 之前没想到这么干，是因为我们没悟到一件事 31:18 要问这招是啥？——答案乍一听可能有点搞笑哈 31:29 但搞笑背后是一种硅谷的方法论 32:57 在硅谷的几个经历也启发了我们 33:53 后面我们还试了很多招数，最终达成了 10 倍的增长 34:01 我们在价格模型上做了很多文章 34:24 Blake Anderson（千万美金 ARR 产品 Cal AI 的创始人）让我意识到，我们之前联系 influencer 的方式都不对 36:33 我们把付费广告的 ROI 提高到了 2 倍 36:59 产品功能升级和老用户也没落下 37:30 但前六周的苦工是省不掉的Part3 一些观察 39:02 美国投资人的工作方式和提的问题有什么不同？ 40:31 美国机构真的很不喜欢中国团队吗？ 42:51 肉身到硅谷去很重要 43:12 我越来越坚信，AI 产品化大有可为 44:44 Perplexity 的 pitch deck 上有两句话，合起来看很妙 45:13 我的壁垒就是我的「人日」 46:47 硅谷的做事风格越来越回归本质了【Reference】 ACE Studio 产品界面 关于 HF0：HF0 是由 Dave Fontenot（世界上最大的黑客松 MHacks 创始人）、Evan Stites- Clayton 和 Emily Liu 共同创立的常驻创业孵化器，有着严苛的筛选标准，由包括 Marc Andreessen、Chris Dixon 在内的多位知名投资者支持，创办第一年就孵化出了 3 家独角兽公司，也孵化过包括 ComfyUI、Story.com 等在内的多家优秀的 AI 公司。【The gang that made this happen】 制作人：陈皮、Celia 剪辑：陈皮 Bgm：Mondo Bongo - Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros2025-03-0148 min
