@conorsen What has to change is the senators who represent Georgia

Something really has to change here. Atlanta seems uniquely bad at the moment.

@marthagimbel @conorsen Because ATL is a town that hustles. No one is showing up for a job that isn’t paying them. They are making money elsewhere. I don’t blame the.

@conorsen Any idea why ATL so bad?

@maxclark Calling the service line is about thebonky other one I got

Is there a worse way to "prospect" than spamming company's contact forms?

@maxclark That’s the problem. None of these penalty’s ever even make it unprofitable to do illegal things

Adobe probably made over a billion doing this, so totally worth it

@maxclark No one knows

Does 2am become 1am or 3am tomorrow?

@sound4movement @OpenAIDevs What does each one do?

I’m at 10+...and the are profoundly useful. 1. Describe the "job to be done" directly to Codex. 2. Ask Codex for its opinion on the skill and how it would make this possible. 3. Automate the skill. “Just-in-time software” is here and easy. @OpenAIDevs 🤍

@pipelineclub100 They hire hire motor guys out of college. They can make a lot quickly if they are successful. Don’t cost the company a whole lot if they are not.

@pipelineclub100 I know the owners of several large metro copier companies. They know the market is shrinking x% amount a year. But they have built a sales machine that allows them to be successful. They just know they have to get skinnier as time goes on, but there is still plenty of business.

Wonder how companies selling copiers are doing in the AI era? I started my career in copier sales and I can’t imagine those companies still being relevant

@Jacobsklug @openclaw @Lovable Os

I'm giving away my entire @openclaw architecture. Behind my $250k/month agency. After weeks of building, I've dialled in the exact system that runs my business 24/7. What's included: • Memory folder structure (how to organize agent context) • Cron job templates (daily briefs, meeting syncs, content automation) • How to build a custom dashboard in @lovable • API reference doc (so your agent never forgets its tools) • Voice training method (85 posts to teach it your style) • Supabase schema for dashboard connection Comment "OS" and follow. I'll DM it to you. P.S. This will probably blow up so give me some time to reply.

@ShannonJean No. That is the agency list that has joined Amazon. Not requested access to your personal camera.....

That Ring pet commercial this weekend set a lot of people off. I checked my privacy settings today. These are the agencies that have requested access to our camera 👇 Uh, no.

@alex_prompter How did you build $2 m ARR in 9 months using a model that came out last week? Stealing 200 customers in days is wild.

I've used this to: - Find pricing sweet spots competitors left open (raised prices 40%, grew faster) - Identify product gaps we could fill (shipped feature they couldn't, stole 200 customers) - Predict their next move (they launched exactly what we forecasted, we were ready) One founder used this, found their competitor was ignoring enterprise market. Pivoted to enterprise. $2M ARR in 9 months. The "roadmap clues" section is pure gold. Job postings reveal strategy better than press releases. Copy this. Run it quarterly on your top 3 competitors. Early warning system for strategic shifts. Tag me with the most surprising thing you find.

Claude Opus 4.6 just became the most dangerous competitive intelligence tool on Earth. I reverse-engineered my competitor's entire strategy in minutes. Found their pricing, positioning, weaknesses, and future roadmap. Here's the prompt (use responsibly): --- "Conduct deep competitive intelligence on [COMPETITOR NAME]: COMPANY OVERVIEW: - Founding story and key milestones - Leadership team (backgrounds, previous companies) - Funding history (rounds, investors, valuations, burn rate estimates) - Employee count and growth trajectory (check LinkedIn headcount) - Office locations and expansion patterns PRODUCT DEEP-DIVE: - Complete product catalog with descriptions - Pricing tiers (current + historical changes) - Feature comparison vs top 3 alternatives - Technology stack (from job postings, tech blogs, BuiltWith) - Recent product launches (last 12 months) - Roadmap clues (from: job postings, conference talks, patent filings, customer surveys) MARKET POSITIONING: - Target customer (size, industry, characteristics, job titles) - Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) based on case studies - Messaging and positioning (analyze website, ads, content) - Brand voice and personality - Key differentiators they claim GO-TO-MARKET STRATEGY: - Marketing channels (paid, organic, partnerships) - Content strategy (blog topics, frequency, engagement) - Sales approach (inbound vs outbound, PLG vs sales-led) - Partnership ecosystem (integrations, resellers, tech partners) - Event presence (conferences, webinars, sponsorships) CUSTOMER INTELLIGENCE: - Review analysis (G2, Capterra, TrustPilot - what do users love/hate?) - Common complaints (from Reddit, Twitter, support forums) - Feature requests and gaps (from public roadmap, user forums) - Churn signals (Glassdoor reviews, customer testimonials that stopped) STRATEGIC VULNERABILITIES: - What are they bad at? (based on reviews, hiring patterns) - What markets are they ignoring? - Where are they overextended? - Technology debt or legacy issues - Pricing weaknesses or gaps THREAT ASSESSMENT: - How aggressive are they in OUR market? - What would it take to compete effectively? - What could they do that would hurt us most? - Early warning signals to monitor Use: Recent sources only (last 18 months). Prioritize primary sources (their blog, official announcements, verified reviews). Flag speculation vs confirmed facts. Include URLs for verification." ---

Super Bowl ad drives massive traffic. Website crashes. Companies spend millions on attention and pennies on infrastructure… then wonder where the revenue went.

@maxclark We are proud of you!

Just closed all my Chrome Tabs AMA

@pinpulleddrmf Because of the pollution liability. Many ppl won't even buy a strip mall if there was ever one in it.

Truly a recession proof business Why is no one rolling these up?

@lancepoole @weathernerdga Athens. Snow days in a college town are a blast. Ppl get creative.

@weathernerdga If you had a kid at UGA and lived in ATL metro, would you advise them to spend the weekend at home vs riding it out in ATL?

1/22 Night Update Focus: North Georgia down to the Metro We are in the crosshairs of a significant to potentially historic ice storm. The NWS is releasing troubling total ice numbers for the area. Image 1 •Experimental Probabilistic Ice Range •High End Amount •Low End Amount Image 2 •Explanation of what ice totals can do Image 3 •Winter Storm Severity Index •Minor •Moderate •Major •Extreme Image 4 •Winter Storm Severity Index Legend Looking through the visuals: First thing to note is the NWS graphic. These numbers will be adjusted more or less, as we get closer to the onset of the ice storm. Second, the WSSI (Winter Storm Severity Index) will likely increase and expand to include more areas in Major and Extreme in future updates unfortunately. Point 1: The question that we still have is, how strong will the CAD (Cold-Air Damming) be? You can see that question in the NWS graphic with high end numbers giving you a significant amount of ice and low amount giving you little to nothing. Hopefully that answer will come into sight within the next 24 hours, but it’s CAD and it’s difficult to forecast. Point 2: We are getting into the realm of CAMs. If you don’t know what that means, that’s okay. We are just going to be getting a clearer image of what will be going down and where. Subsequent forecasts from the NWS will reflect that. Point 3: When will the event start? That is a huge question. Based off past events with CAD and CAD prone areas, I can tell you that there will be light precipitation earlier and colder than you expected. Models have incredibly difficult time depicting this. Shoot, the radar at the time it is happening has a hard time showing it. (It may show nothing on radar but it might be freezing mist or freezing sprinkles at your location). This is typical in CAD prone areas during strong CAD events. If you are under a Winter Storm Watch, you need to be preparing for the worst scenario (Prepare for the worst, hope for the best motto). Areas in North-Central mountains of GA and Northeast Georgia need to be preparing for days+ without power. Power outages will be widespread and not easily repaired. Power outages will be possible outside of these areas, as well. The arctic air behind the event can be a nightmare if power is lost. Be Responsible Be Prepared

@KHendersonCo @ATT Wish I woulda heard this earlier. We make that easy for people!

It took my wife 3.5 hours on the phone with @ATT to simply transfer her phone number from our personal account to a new business account for our new acquisition. Now she finally knows what it's like to be an entrepreneur... Hours on hold with shitty vendors!

@maxclark And as far as use, really it's mailing list and ads. Just easier to have everything in one place.

@maxclark I was going from sales starter to sales pro, and mentioned we'd like more contacts but felt like they were stupidly priced. He gave us a 95% discount on the marketing contacts. We've upgraded the block a few times and that discount follows automatically right now.

Help me understand what I'm missing from Hubspot Marketing pricing. "Marketing Contacts" feel excessively expensive. Why do people do this vs using Kit or something else?
