Just a random appreciation post for getting to be part of this amazing community! It's almost funny that even after all these years, post-sale marketing hasn't gotten its due credit and a seat at the table in most companies. But I guess that's one of the reasons this community bonded so well and selflessly look out for each other. Each day, we see leaders in the space sharing new resources to lift us all up; folks at all levels being willing to ask questions and unlearn, relearn; cheering for each others' promotions and new jobs; even vendors and consultants offering more value than they ask for, and genuinely trying to understand the problems instead of jumping on a sales pitch. Being a team of one or two in most companies, with low/no budget and tons of untapped potential, it's natural to feel burnt out sometimes to the point of giving up on the cause. But people here give hope. And that's beautiful. I really believe that one day, post-sale programs rise up and become equals (watch out, demand gen!), and we all stay as close as we are today. :heart: <@U04B82TD07M> we can't thank you enough for bringing this group together!
