In this YouTube short, Nicolas Cole explains that a public pitch or funnel teardown can be repurposed as a direct message to other founders operating in the same niche. He illustrates the idea by describing how a detailed teardown of Justin Welsh’s async digital product funnel could be sent to Ali Abdaal, noting the similarity of their funnels. Cole emphasizes that this practice is always permissible as long as the shared content genuinely helps, educates, or improves the recipient’s situation, framing it as a strategic way to add value and build relationships.

If I pitch one founder in public, can I use that as a DM to other founders also in the same space? Yes, absolutely. That's like the whole benefit. Let's say I do a pitch in public about Justin Welsh and I do a whole teardown of his funnel selling async digital products. Can I take that post and go send it to Ali Abdaal? Of course I can. I can be like, hey Ali, I just wanted to share this with you. I did a whole teardown of Justin's funnel. You guys actually have very similar funnels. Just sending this over. Pass it to your team if you want. I think it would be helpful. Of course you can. So many of these questions is like, am I allowed to? Can I? And the answer is always yes, as long as you are helping the other person, as long as you are educating them about a problem, as long as you are in some way making their life better. If the answer to that is yes, then do whatever you want.
