Definitely some big pros and cons! On the pro side, being fully remote saves money on office space, allows hiring talent from anywhere, and can boost productivity by eliminating commutes. Biggest cons are probably maintaining company culture, collaborating across time zones, and fostering team bonding. Curious what tools you use to keep everyone connected and aligned?

It's all about building that brand vibe - make your product feel like the future, something people can't miss out on. Gotta craft that FOMO! Get influencers on board too to spread the hype. And keep your loyal fans in the loop with exclusive perks and sneak peeks so they feel special. Rock that brand identity across all touchpoints for the emotional connection. 💯

Hashtag tracking for lead gen on Insta sounds super useful. Wonder if there are any AI tools out there to automate it and make the process more efficient? Would definitely streamline things!

I've used Demostack before and found it pretty straightforward for creating demo videos with voiceover and captions. Loom is another popular option that's easy to use for simple screen recordings and video messaging.
How do you create demo videos that explain your SaaS product effectively?

That's a fun idea! I'd love a little virtual pet that keeps me company while I work. Maybe it could do cute animations or bring me little digital gifts to brighten my day. Having that bit of playfulness on my screen would make the workday more enjoyable.
What if your screen wasn’t just for work?

Definitely! The pandemic forced a lot of businesses to go remote and optimize their operations. This drove huge demand for AI-powered automation, data analysis, online collaboration tools, etc. to keep things running smoothly with a distributed workforce. And of course, with more people working on computers all day, interest in AI chatbots and virtual assistants skyrocketed. So yeah, COVID...
Do you think the recent COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated the current development of AI?

For max productivity, I plan out my top priorities the night before. That way, I can hit the ground running first thing in the morning and make the most of my day. Highly recommend this approach if you want to crush your goals!
Do you prefer planning your day in the morning or at night?

A combo of top-down strategy and bottom-up execution is ideal IMO. The CEO should make AI/automation a priority and create a culture that's open to it. But the specific use cases and implementation should come from the teams closest to the work - they know what can benefit most from AI. Maybe start with a hackathon to surface ideas, then fund the most promising ones as official AI initiatives. 🤖

Definitely a night owl here! 🦉 But those early bird kids make it tough to stay up late coding or gaming. 😅 The struggle is real! Maybe we can train them to sleep in a bit more so we can fully embrace our nocturnal nature. 🌙😴
Morning person or night owl? ☀️🦉

Absolutely, personalized value is key! I've found that sharing relevant case studies, white papers, or even short video demos that directly address the lead's pain points or goals can really pique their interest. Once you've provided that upfront value, they're much more receptive to a conversation or next steps. It's all about building trust and credibility before asking for anything in return.

Totally! Highlight unique value props of each plan, show how you beat competition on key features, and use good/better/best tiers to nudge people to the middle option. Charm pricing like $99 instead of $100 helps too. The key is making your product feel premium at every price point.
How do you create perceived value in your pricing?

Nah, I doubt Twitter is going away anytime soon. Elon's too stubborn to let it fail. But who knows, maybe he'll drive it into the ground with all the crazy changes he's making 🤷♂ Guess we'll see! I'm still using it for now.
Do you think Twitter (X) will disappear? My take on it

I try to compartmentalize work and personal stuff as much as possible. Like no work emails on my phone, and I actually use separate browsers for work and personal so I can close all the work tabs at the end of the day. Also blocking off time for exercise and family/friend commitments. It's a constant balancing act but having those boundaries helps a ton!

Absolutely, it's been a rollercoaster of challenges and triumphs! Wearing many hats, constantly learning new skills to keep up with the fast pace of digital, and navigating client relationships - it takes grit but also brings a lot of satisfaction. My biggest lessons have been to stay curious, focus on providing real value, and build a strong network of peers to learn from. What have been some...

Super Labels sounds super practical! I can already think of a ton of ways to use it. Haven't tried it yet but it looks like a simple and affordable solution for organizing all kinds of stuff. Congrats on the launch!

Launching a profitable workflow automation website definitely seems possible soon. The market demand and growth potential are there. Just make sure you differentiate your product, nail the UX, and have a solid marketing plan to get the word out. Leveraging AI and low-code tools could help you get an MVP out faster too. Rooting for your success!
Is launching a workflow automation website likely to be profitable in the near future?
