Scenario: You're a founder, attending the Blackbird Sunrise Conference this week, and your focus is: finding funding, now. (Or, you're not attending, and that's your focus too) Meetings lined up. Investors to pitch. Decks to distribute. A gathering of 1000 people to network the hell out of and come away with some $$. However, the objective doesn't always mirror the outcome, as there is a lot going on this week, and many, many conversations. So, we've put an offer together for the occasion. During Sunrise, all you have to do is find one of our 🚜 team members (or ask around, we have plenty of partners and our own investors attending) and ask us the question: "We have $X revenue per month and Y months of runway in reserve, and the next steps we are taking to grow our revenue again is Z. Can you fund me and for how much?" Our offer is that we will let you know, on the spot, whether it is likely or not that we can fund you. The quickest 'likely', 'no', or 'maybe' you're ever likely to experience. Then you'll know, and you can continue on with the Sunrise Conference, and all those other chats to be had. If you're spending time out of the business, then we want to make sure it's worthwhile for you, and that means providing the most transparent way forward to the next decision. So, simply look for the Tractor merch. And you'll probably find our Co-Founders Matt Allen & Jodie Imam. Or Garry Williams 🚜 & Nick Rumpff. Or Kimia Marzban & Darragh McDonnell. Or Dan Siepen & Conor Sutherland. And maybe even a lego tractor to be given away. Last tickets to Sunrise: https://lnkd.in/gkd6UqA8

🎉 Grateful to everyone who contributed at the IxDA Atlanta Discussion Group meetup on Tuesday! We explored the significance of workshops in UX design, highlighting their value in several scenarios: Tackling Complexity: When challenges escalate in complexity, having a subject matter expert onboard is invaluable, enabling the team to navigate intricate issues effectively. Embracing Diverse Perspectives: Diverse viewpoints from team members and users fosters richer insights and innovative solutions. Securing Stakeholder Buy-in: UX workshops serve as catalysts for securing stakeholder buy-in, pivotal for propelling projects forward. Fostering Creativity: UX workshops ignite creativity, sparking novel approaches and out-of-the-box thinking. Building Strong Teams: Beyond project outcomes, UX workshops double up as tools for team building, forging stronger bonds and collaborative spirit amongst team members. How do you use workshops to improve your design process? #IxDA  #UXDesign #Collaboration #Innovation #Teamwork

As a CEO, which I'm not, it's important to understand how your micro interactions can lead to macro results... 🤔 I was reminded of that yesterday. I joined the Pavilion community yesterday after teaching the RevOps Summer course back in June and July this year. I've followed Pavilion's CEO, Sam Jacobs, on LinkedIn for a while but never interacted with him. Once I joined, he sent me a LinkedIn request so I followed up with a short message. His response, which probably took 15 seconds to type, made my week as it helped validate some of the good feedback on the course I had received. At the same time, it will also: 🚀 Make me try that much harder to ensure my upcoming Winter Session is a step above my Summer Session. 🚀 Encourage me to truly interact with the community and build meaningful connections. 🚀 Validate the plan that Brendan Tolleson and RevPartners have to sponsor the community enabling the beginning of a hopefully long-term partnership. I may never meet Sam but his simple validation that the course I created for his company's community provided value to the participants will make me a life-long fan. So as a reminder, 15 seconds now can pay dividends 15 days or 15 months down the road, you just never know.

Daily dose of Optimism: As Peter Ducker said, "The best way to create the future is to build the future". At The Earthshot Prize, we believe in the power of creativity and innovation to create the future. We believe in people around the world reclaiming agency over their future and fixing the world, one solution at a time. We believe in the game-changers, the change-makers, the creators, the builders, the dreamers and the do-ers. Because of them, we wake up daily with optimism about the future they're creating for all of us. We also wake up each day with a renewed sense of urgency. Time is ticking and history is being written. We must all go faster, bigger, braver and bolder. This is our singular call to action to those with influence and capital: Speed solutions to scale. Because the innovators can create the future, but together, we need to speed the future towards us faster than ever before. And that is a collective endeavour requiring more courage and collaboration than ever before. Thank you to our incredible Founding Partners Bloomberg Philanthropies for hosting and convening courageous conversations with incredible people. Thank you to everyone who has said yes to joining us on the 24th. Together we are a movement for change and action.
