If your office doesn’t have cool art, you’re ngmi

@JNAranda @brian_lovin @eightsleep That’s not the case, it was a gift. I was not the one who purchased it, but after 2 months it leaked everywhere. I’ll email you directly, hopefully you can help. Thx

@jamesfbender1 @brian_lovin @eightsleep Hey James, to my understanding you purchased the product second-hand and it was well outside of its original warranty. If you had purchased it directly from us we would have handled it very differently. If I have the circumstances wrong, please ping me at joe@eightsleep.com

Everyone makes fun of Eight Sleep until it's 84º in SF and they don't have a liquid-cooled mattress. Suckers.

@Winterrose Martinez Gun Club. Can smoke cigars and shoot. Cool spots. Not sure if you can smoke cigars at Livermore

are there any places to smoke cigars and shoot guns in SF with cool people? realizing that sounds fun

@NickLo191 @zach_yadegari X won’t let me, need you to follow me or shoot me a DM.

@jamesfbender1 @zach_yadegari dm me

I bet someone could be a company that uses AI to create extremely high quality plug and play attribution models. Would be worth billions.

Stiddle.com already solves this problem for many large companies. The tech uncovers extended customer visibility and event tracking up to 3 years without the use of cookies, then applies plug n play attribution models trained on your data. Works out of the box and trained in your data.

Whoever solves this problem will make me so insanely rich

@zach_yadegari Btw these ai models trained on your data. Very plug n play, but built specific for the company using them.

@zach_yadegari Stiddle.com already solves this. Works with large companies with larger spend at scale. Increases event tracking visibility up to 3-years without cookies. Then applies AI models for attribution credit allocation.

@PabloMotoa @zach_yadegari @MrBeast Stiddle.com solves this very well - works with large companies at scale.

incredible. @zach_yadegari paid @MrBeast $500K for an ad in one of his videos - and they almost got it for free. the craziest part of this whole story isn’t even the price. it’s the fact that they couldn’t properly attribute the $500K investment. i worked on the growth team at a unicorn startup, and attribution was one of our biggest challenges too. is anyone actually solving this? @ZssBecker?

@RetentionAdam Great @RetentionAdam, maybe you use some of that ARR to hire more sales reps that will actually reply to your inbound. Because I’m a hot sales lead for you guys and haven’t heard back from your “only” sales reps Robb! Maybe it’s time for me to look elsewhere

The VP Marketing of a $20M ARR SaaS told 3 coworkers she was doing a Zoom with me. Two said “awesome.” One said, “I HATE that guy.” So why do people hate me so much? Them: “You didn't actually bootstrap $7M ARR with 3 FTEs.” Them: “You over-dramatize everything.” Them: “Your success is just being the master of controversy on LinkedIn.” Them: “Your product is sketchy, immoral spyware, and only ‘technically' legal.” Them: “You've never made it past $25M ARR.” (at $30M now) Them: “You are an egomaniacal narcissist. You made a documentary about yourself.” Them: “You say bootstrapping is the only way. It isn't.” But do you know who I think really hates me the most? My VC-backed pseudo-competitors. They've raised $10s of millions with 50+ employees. RB2B has more revenue and is growing faster with 3 FTEs. So, if I were them, I'd hate me too.

@mediaking I think we’re being targeted today

The jerks that send SendGrid phishing emails are working overtime today.

@mediaking Domain isn’t sendgrid, seems to be some competitor or something

@mediaking I got the same email

That's quite the fake email.

@melissaoneofone @Divy__Pratap @indiedoers Sure thing, feel free to DM me. Thx

@jamesfbender1 @Divy__Pratap @indiedoers Yikes, that’s rough. I work with operators to quickly figure out and resolve account or platform issues. Happy to take a look and let you know what’s happening — no strings attached.

Migrated help center of @indiedoers from Intercom to Simplebase. Feeling relaxed and it's a major cost-cutting move for a bootstrapped startup. Why I chose Simplebase: ✅ One-time fee (Appsumo LTD) ✅ Complete knowledge base ✅ Chatbot (requires own OpenAI keys) ✅ Helpdesk ticket support system ✅ Multiple workspaces ✅ Unlimited team members ✅ Comprehensive analytics

@Divy__Pratap @indiedoers Do you have any way of getting in contact with them or know any of their socials? Been looking around but no luck.

@jamesfbender1 @indiedoers Yes, they suddenly disappeared last week. Luckily, I was migrating my help center to within my Framer website and help desk support to HubSpot. I suspected something like this could happen since they were silent for so long. If I remember correctly, they are Netherlands-based.

Simplebase is a scam and I can’t get support from anyone! I’ve been a paying customer for 2 years and recently for the past 2 weeks their website/app doesn’t work, I can’t access any of the articles that we’ve been hosting on the platform (50+), when visiting my help docs domain it shows a cloudflare error, and when trying to email their support the email bounces. I have no way of getting in contact with them and have lost all of our content from over 2 years. Can you help?

Whew. It's 3AM, but I've finished the core functionality of my new tool. You can now take screenshots by clicking through your application and it will automatically annotate them. I'm calling it SimpleBase.

@Delmo_dev @Stiddleapp We haven’t yet, but we absolutely could. If you interested, send me a dm and we can chat logistics

@jamesfbender1 @Stiddleapp looks really good. can you integrate with whop?

whoever makes a B2B whop app to allow businesses to create campaign links, and measure their clicks, conversion rate, etc. will likely see a lot of success current options fall short in features and quality, and it's such an essential feature
