It’s on the intent survey trialing users complete before getting access. I’ve had the data since April but haven’t had time to actual use it. 😔
I’m slowing down development trying to switch to sales, onboarding, and conversions.

I guess the most surprising part of this journey will be discovering what my sales cycle actually is, what my sales funnel really looks like, and whether I can stomach the direct rejection that’s coming my way. #buildinpublic

We’ll see where this takes me. But if my conversion rates hold and these leads convert, I can double my monthly revenue, bringing me one step closer to my financial goals with CareNote.

This approach to my business is different. There is something nice about the product, "selling itself" but I am leaving 92 customers on the table with that approach. So, everyday going forward, I'm making a contact via email or phone to help connect with those interested CareNote.

Ninety-two people indicated “ASAP” as their decision timeline, and I didn’t contact a single one of them. My bad. I’m starting a new path tomorrow as we head into Black Friday. My sales cycle can be long (often up to 60 days) but I’m realizing I have to actually feed it.

This is actually wild, because until now I was letting the trial(and the trial alone) function as my entire sales funnel. Now I can clearly see where someone is in their decision process, and I can start crafting responses that help move people toward becoming customers.

I realized that for the past two years, I haven’t actually been doing sales. I built a solution and have been surviving on people essentially selling it to themselves. That’s worked well (I’m at about 50% of my financial goal for the tool) but I could be at 100% with a sales plan. #buildinpublic

I realized that my internal CRM is my own version of lightfield.app. I did a comparison and I've built everything in my version except natural language processing, but I can add that later. They have a custom AI model, I'm just using off-the-shelf models, but I'm pleased with the functionality.
