UCONNNNNNNN

@ryankramerllc @scaling_shields Complete garbage. Bad reviews aren’t left by software buyers an outbound motion is trying to target And 99% of bad reviews to begin with are anonymous on B2B review sites. Go read any product you’re familiar with on G2. This is hilariously dumb

@go8le @scaling_shields So is this post complete garbage or is that 3% where the money is?

met a guy last week making $43,000/month sending cold emails to people who left 1-star reviews for his competitors not joking he scrapes trustpilot and g2 for every 1-star review in his niche finds the persons linkedin pulls their email sends them one message: "saw your review of [competitor]. we built [product] specifically because of complaints like yours. want to see it?" reply rate: 11.4% for context the average cold email reply rate is 0.3% his is 38x higher because rather than just emailing strangers, hes emailing people who are already pissed off and actively looking for an alternative they JUST took time out of their day to write a paragraph about how much they hate the thing you replace theyre literally the hottest lead on planet earth and theyre free public information sitting on review sites he showed me his process: step 1: filter trustpilot for 1-star and 2-star reviews of top 3 competitors posted in last 90 days step 2: copy the reviewers name into linkedin sales nav step 3: pull email with apollo or instantly step 4: send the email within 72 hours of them posting the review while theyre still mad step 5: appointment setter calls every positive reply within 5 minutes close rate on these calls: 41% because the entire sales conversation is "what did they fuck up" and "heres how we do it differently" literally no convincing or educating needed no overcoming objections about whether they need the category they already bought it once they already know they need it they just need it from someone who doesnt suck last month he scraped 290 negative reviews found emails for 203 of them got 23 positive replies booked 19 calls closed 8 deals at $4,200 average contract value $33,600 in revenue from reading complaints the craziest part three of his customers told him they were ABOUT to switch to a different competitor before he reached out he intercepted them mid-churn one guy said "i literally had the contract open in another tab when your email came in" timing is everything most people are cold emailing prospects who dont even know they have a problem yet this guy is emailing people who just spent 20 minutes writing a essay about their problem on the internet every 1-star review is someone announcing "i have budget, i have pain, and im shopping right now" your competitors are generating your lead list for you theyre spending $50K on ads to acquire a customer that customer hates them writes a review and you email them for free and close them in one call right now theres probably 200 people who reviewed your competitor in the last 60 days theyre all reachable theyre all in market and theyre all ignored because everyone thinks cold email means emailing cold people these people are on fire go put it out p.s. if you want us to setup a cold email system that books you 10-30 calls per month - DM me "COLD" (you ONLY pay for qualified calls actually booked onto your calendar)

@ryankramerllc @scaling_shields 97% of reviews on B2B review sites were paid review campaigns sent to a select group of users of happy enterprise customers The other 3% are organic and 99% of them are on sub-$5k a year 1-seat subscriptions to things like Canva and Notion

@scaling_shields I actually thought most people who complain in those places are paid by competitors to do so It’s apparently not true I guess

@BFW John Stockton and Chet Holmgren (Gonzaga) Chris Paul and Tim Duncan (wake forest) Oscar Robertson and Kenyon Martin (Cincy)

@BFW Gilbert Arenas and Andre Iguodala from Arizona White Chocolate and Joakim Noah from Florida Tyrese Halliburton and Jeff Hornacek (fire) from Iowa State

Here’s my first run-through all the best NBA Jam combos using college’s all-time players. I can be convinced to add schools if the argument is compelling.

the american mind cannot comprehend this

@QuirkConnor @cremieuxrecueil @lisperati Went from 50 to ~55 for me on 2.5mg a week

@cremieuxrecueil @lisperati +1. Doesn’t RHR typically increase ~10-20 bpm?

What are the best arguments right now for not using grey market retatrutide to get an optimally healthy body weight?

@lst156 No need to displace anyone. Close the golf course, build on it, move residents in there, level PM, build 20k homes in its place instead of 3100. They could build 40,000 units there for $10b, or the private sector could do it for $4b. Instantly solves housing crisis in SF

@go8le Tbh the best answer is adaptive reuse in the downtown core. It displaces nobody and those email jobs are never coming back from remote work

The fact that these chucklefucks always want to do this to the Sunset and Richmond, and never Seacliff or Pac Heights, lays bare that it’s always been about class and race, not density

@benwfreeman1 Polymarket is not yet available in the USA. When they, it’s gonna explode. Priced in

How do Kalshi and Polymarket have the same valuation?

@braveben home.lamarzoccousa.com/product/linea-… Or one on FB Markets. They’re out there. Gold standard

What’s the best espresso setup for home/small office use? Ideally $5k or less but open to ideas No complicated maintenance or excessive cleaning A beautiful object

@darrenrovell @Barsotta Like a guy who can’t crack ten minutes a mile in a footrace

@Barsotta How did I look in my 4:24 marathon in Chicago?

I’ve seen Darren run. His opinion on how top level athletes should train is meaningless.

@JeffBiesinger I’ve played poker with him several times when he’s been in my city on the road. Super nice dude, insanely competitive, goes deep into the tank to win pots that represent less than 20 seconds of his pay on the court 😂

As I have gotten older, I’ve changed how I view athletes. Westbrook was someone who frustrated me for years. Then, I came to realize, he’s never cheated the game for one second. He plays as hard as anyone ever has. He’s never once gotten in trouble off the court. He seems the be great husband and father. And, you hear all types of stories about him helping in the community. I’m a big Westbrook fan now.

@jackfriks Bidet + electric tennis racquet fly swatters. Bar none

what’s a material thing under $1000 you’ve bought that actually changed your life?

@pull_gs @mountainwesttax This 100% reads like the owners live there

@mountainwesttax "Proof of funds required" lol that's just the cherry on top.

Would you like to pay a $9,500 mortgage to acquire $7,500 in monthly rent? For the next year and a half? So you can move into a “new build” after years of renters living in it?

@mountainwesttax @pabloecarvallo North of Evans there, no. If that house was a quarter mile south towards observatory park, yes.

@pabloecarvallo Maybe but not really

@FidelCacheFlow You’d need to account for stage more than “close/lost”. Everyone at Gong gets their tires kicked. It’s a highly commoditized product.

May or may not have hit a couple fiscal year quotas purely targeting recently promoted and ex prez club sellers closed lost accounts. Underrated strategy. When the top seller close lost the opp out their is a significantly higher likelihood that ‘timing was off’ and not a Biz Case PMF or structural fit issue. The rep who got the Lamana accounts about to go crazyyy

@tomjimsula49 @grantcohn You are idealizing a player who has a probability of playing healthy and well in a divisional, NFCCG, and Super Bowl at maybe 35%. Current value for 2026 is ~$22-24m, not $38m. They're just too far apart.

No one screws up negotiations like Lynch and the Niners. Between the own goals with their players, botched draft after draft and a complete and total lack of creativity in the FA and trade markets, you have to ask: do these guys have any clue? cc: @grantcohn
