Didnt think of the FinOps angle - thats a goodd one! The annoying thing about filtering by AWS mentions is that every other company seems to list all the clpud platforms like in a list, even if they use just one of them. Adding FinOps is a good additional filter in that case
Definitely would recommend the Rands Slack channel though only catch is you need to be in some sort of engineering leadership role (not sure if the criteria changed though). But I’m sure if you ask nicely, they’ll let you in. Lots of channels related to career advice there
Also would recommend just going through this huge list of tech companies that use Slack to see if any of them fits you: https://bloomberry.com/data/slack/
+1 for Rands Leadership Slack, it's a great community. While the general slant and audience are eng leadership heavy, there are definitely non-engineer and non-management folks there.
The web UI has become extremely slow. I am not sure if its that way for everyone or its because there are more people in our team using it. Many people dont like the UI too although that isnt my main concern
For number one, any idea the best person to contact in those companies? They probably dont got a head of AI person so wondering if a VP of Engineering is the next logical person.
Also I haven’t thought of forums/communities! Any idea whether I am more likely to find small companies or big enterprises there?
For the 2nd, based on my experience you are likely to find developers from both big and small companies equally hanging out in communities. Most lean technical btw, so if you arent targeting developers, communities probably arent the best venue to find potential users.
I also forgot to add: finding followers of OpenAI in Linkedin might also be a good way to find ChatGpT customers. Or people who comment on their product announcemnts in Linkedin.
Would followers or commenters usually be recent customers though? Because that really is my target audience: users who just decided to purchase and use ChatGPT.
They probably wouldn’t be recent customers, that’s true. I would say if we were talking 4-5 years ago, followers/commenters would be a high signal they just started using ChatGPT; but it seems most of them are just bots now.
i dont even use a crm blushes. To be honest, im just starting out with outbound so im not doing anything sophisticated. Just want to import a list of leads, enrich with contact details and their tech stack data. Thats all.
Ppl keep recommending me tools like apollo and zoominfo but they way too powerful for me. I dont care about how many data providers they have because i just care about those 2 thinfs
The problem with not using Clay is that most of them dont do waterfall enrichment. So you’re just gonna end up with a list with 50% enriched instead of 90-95%…
