> I know 100+ people from a dozen companies The problem I see with this particular line is how disproportionate it is. If you had said 100+ people from 50+ companies, that might have been more convincing than 100+ people from a select 12 companies. The problem here is that it's 12 companies, and not every company can be one of those 12. That's like me saying I know 20+ people from 2+ companies that made $1mm+ but those 2+ companies included FB/Twitter/etc.
