I'm waiting on it from Kristine and I'll post it back here.

#general - November 19, 2024 at 07:38 PM

Summary from today's AI Open Discussion with @Kristine Kukich

#general - November 19, 2024 at 06:59 PM

Great call today with @Evan Jacobs and @Wynn Tanner. We shared experiences with creating images and slides with AI.

Some takeaways:
• Kristine and I prefer Claude as the language sounds more human and less robotic.
• I use Sider, a Chrome extension, to make it easy to use it in the browser and use it across various versions of AI. I do pay for this, it's $10/mo.
• I shared Castmagic for managing podcast episodes (or any audio or video content), and creating marketing content like LinkedIn posts, blog posts, etc.
• Shared Google Notebooks and how well it cites the sources used when responding to your prompts.

Welcome <@U081CGMG1QV> I'd love to check out Jatra. I'm a big Community platform nerd.

I saw this. I used to work there. Happy to discuss it if anyone is looking for info.

#general - November 18, 2024 at 03:40 PM

I'm so glad to hear that @Huw Wigley - keep us updated on how you like it.

#general - November 18, 2024 at 03:36 PM

@Krutika Mathihalli can you share a bit more about what you would like to get out of mentoring? Who are you looking for?

#general - November 18, 2024 at 02:48 PM

Hey @channel,
Are you looking for a mentor? Here's your opportunity.

TL;DR - Post here thread if you want a mentor OR want to be a mentor.

Add your credentials; experience, position, and goals for mentorship.
Mentors please share your expertise for offering mentorship.

I'm asked regularly to help people find a mentor. I've tried to turn this into a program but the time investment just isn't realistic for making decent matches.
However, I can still help. Starting this month I'm posting the Mentorship thread; you can post here if you want a mentor, or post to say you are willing to be a mentor.
I will share this in the newsletter, on LinkedIn, during the weekly call, and other methods.

#announcements - November 15, 2024 at 09:28 PM

I'll post it Monday, I have to download and upload still 😄 I'll come back to this topic to update.

#jobs - November 15, 2024 at 09:27 PM

I think @Ari Hoffman - Amplitude worked here.

#discussions - November 15, 2024 at 07:54 PM

I've used them both, happy to answer any questions.

#jobs - November 15, 2024 at 07:45 PM

I'm interested in hearing how people feel about Apollo. They had several people leave at once so I'd be cautious to apply. TY for sharing Meisha though. You rock, @Cara Peterson

#general - November 14, 2024 at 06:14 PM

I'm sure Joel has, I'd have to see if I have any slides on it though.

#general - November 14, 2024 at 05:59 PM

Joel is on to discuss Community, come share your topics! https://us06web.zoom.us/j/88224360459?pwd=bb1DWt4Q08ok9UxHDwQi0Eq641NfaA.1

#discussions - November 14, 2024 at 04:01 PM

can you search by location on etsy?

#general - November 13, 2024 at 03:15 PM

I noticed this too. Really cool.

#jobs - November 12, 2024 at 08:42 PM

Do you know them well?

#open-share - November 09, 2024 at 09:13 PM

That’s so cool, congrats

#announcements - November 08, 2024 at 06:31 PM

No Call today!! Have a great weekend.

#general - November 08, 2024 at 05:59 PM

Here's the quick luma page https://lu.ma/664tj2lm

#general - November 08, 2024 at 05:30 PM

Orca is a CMAweekly preferred partner so there's that 🙂

I'll announce here that I will be hosting a Reference Feature Showdown in January for vendors to show their reference experience from the customer and managers' point of view.

Deeto, Champion, SlapFive, all have the reference function as well.

#general - November 08, 2024 at 05:28 PM

I'll add there is to be NO outreach based on posts like this. Vendors please message me if you want to break this rule!!

#general - November 08, 2024 at 05:28 PM

Oh Jeanne, I'm sorry to hear you had to make that decision. Your posts on LinkedIn really showed how you kicked butt in that position. I hope you have an amazing cruise (and post pics) and I'm so touched you would come here and share with all of us. ❤️

#announcements - November 08, 2024 at 04:20 PM

Gah, ty. I've switched from Beehiiv and Substack to MailerLite which is an email marketing platform. I'll have to keep playing with it. TY for telling me.

#general - November 08, 2024 at 03:21 PM

That's a great question. I wonder if @Daniel Palay has any advice because he does a lot of team management.

#announcements - November 08, 2024 at 03:20 PM

@Alexie Glover did you end up finding it, was it in spam? @Joel Primack can you check spam? I'm so new to this email program so I may have to play with it a bit. TY both for letting me know where you find it.

#general - November 08, 2024 at 03:04 PM

#announcements - November 07, 2024 at 11:39 PM

I’ll check into it Joel

#general - November 07, 2024 at 10:05 PM

Yea

#announcements - November 07, 2024 at 09:22 PM

TY @Angela Kelleher

#general - November 07, 2024 at 09:21 PM

The last I heard is it was dancing around 20k, but it could depend on your company size, I'm not sure.

#announcements - November 07, 2024 at 09:01 PM

I just finished creating the newest format of our newsletter; it took forever, so please know that I love you! Check your email inboxes! If it isn't there, it will be soon.

What's Changed In the Newsletter?

In trying to hold up our Sponsors (UserEvidence, Champion, Orca & Advocacy Maven) I spent less time collecting industry news & resources - I'm fixing that today!

Events are separated into 2 sections: Friday Meetups & Monthly Open Discussions

I mentioned a lot of new people in the newsletter, so you can get even more strategy ideas and insights.

A section of Jobs (only 1 today), Reports, Podcasts, and Newsletters

Layoffs and Job Market news

And!! new graphics!

Here's what it looks like.

Members I mentioned in today's issue: @Alexie Glover @Maria Braune @Maria Sturgeon @Andrew Sevillia @Cara Peterson @Irene Yam @Sam Shepler @Joel Primack @Shetal Shah @Kristine Kukich @Asha May @Matias Vivone & Discussions from @Karilla Dyer @Colleen Gauthier @Melissa Pezzin and @Jennifer Eberhart TY All for contributing to this community. You make it a pleasure.

Captivate Collective has a program execution certification coming up in Dec and CMAweekly members get 20% off. I've heard good things about their courses.

I've taken Kevin's and Leslie's courses and really enjoyed those. I also wrote my own on Scaling Advocacy.

#general - November 07, 2024 at 07:31 PM

The points aspect came up under a recent conversation, Amy Ng shared. I'm not sure if I've seen anything about the specific value of each activity. I think that comes from sales or sales enablement. I have heard that sales people will pay up to $250 per reference though.

#general - November 07, 2024 at 07:27 PM

I'd think Kevin has something like this from Marketo or Adobe, I'd check them out as well.

#general - November 07, 2024 at 07:15 PM

How do you automate collecting Customer Stories and content?

#general - November 07, 2024 at 06:46 PM

What about a work around? You could say "Hello Customer, I heard from your CSM that you had an interesting story about XYZ, could you tell me more about it?"

Otherwise, it might be a good idea to message Gong and ask, I'm sure the question has come up before and since we haven't been able to help you, maybe you could share with us @Emily Coleman

#general - November 07, 2024 at 05:48 PM

@Angela Ferrante any thoughts on this?

#general - November 07, 2024 at 05:21 PM

That's a great question.

#jobs - November 06, 2024 at 07:34 PM

Love it!! Gong has so many customers, this is a great opportunity to think about scaled programs in tech.

#general - November 06, 2024 at 07:33 PM

Many of you are teams of one or at least you have a lot on your plate and know what it feels like. Check out the topic above with Amanda Peacock. She's even done a masterclass on being a team of one in our space. ⬆️
