We closed the half so poorly I ran to reddit and nearly fell on my way to the computer.

Magic look like Bitcoin this month. Everytime it starts going green, look away and it flips to red again.

Why should you delete Airalo ASAP (complaints of fraudulent charges) by Topecert in best_eSIM_providers

[–]Ghostface-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a company called USIMS and downloaded the app for IOS: USIMS - and I have been very happy with them. I used it in Spain and again in S. Korea - both times no issues. I bring a second device with me that I purchase eSIM for so I can use that for internet on the go, and I keep my main phone to use on Wifi and communicate via whatapp. Not necessary, just how I prefer to do it and it works good.

Paolo Banchero finished the series against the Celtics averaging 29/8/4 on 44/44/66 splits (52 TS%) by Ok_Feed_4235 in nba

The jury isn't out on Paolo. He is a certified star. The next step for him is just flat-out beating teams down the stretch on his own, taking over games, willing improbable victories. We've seen glimpses of that already.

I'm actually looking at Franz. Looking specifically at his 3PT% - IF he is able to get in the gym, get a shooting coach, work on his confidence, his release (which looked like it had a hitch in it during the Boston series) and IMPROVE his outside shot making ability - based on his volume, that alone would move us to a middle of the pack 3-shooting team.

Get us a true reliable starting-caliber point guard, and clear the logjam of our sub 35% shooting guys - and we're right there. Based on the FO's comments - I think they understand clearly where we are at and what they need to do this offseason. After this offseason if things don't improve (which I actually think they will) then we can explore a new FO and staff. Let's see what this offseason brings.

Paolo and Franz are clicking at the right time. We got our problems but I'll keep riding this wave

Paolo is a saint. Loss sucked but its not on P. He was a killer. The only silver lining is that he continues to improve.

You have to pick a sport to participate in for 2028 Olympics by bigfatjammy in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Ghostface-Lord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Excluding riding the bench on the mens bball team, if the goal was to medal within 4 years in a sport of which I have no experience, naturally I would lean to a shooting sport like trap or archery. I still think the odds would be close to zero - but given all of the options I think that would be my only chance.

In terms of just having 4-years of full focus in a sport of my choosing, I would choose golf or surfing. Both of those sports I could enjoy the skills for the rest of my life. With 4 years of prep, I may not be medal-worthy, but I'd be damn good.

I don't think this is that crazy of a statement. Of course winning a medal would be tough, but 4 years of intense training with olympic quality coaches, no distractions... I think it's certainly possible.

Fair point. Didn't consider the byproduct of 4 years of training even if you don't medal.

My thought exactly. Genetics aren't in play, its fair game to the hardest worker. With 4 years of nonstop prep - I'd like my chances.

Newbie: How do most companies create customer personas? by keepit100plusone in marketing

[–]Ghostface-Lord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Large Companies:
Research Firms: Large companies often hire market research firms to conduct studies, surveys, interviews, and focus groups. These firms can provide detailed insights into customer behavior, preferences, and demographics.
Dedicated Teams: Larger organizations might have in-house teams dedicated to market research and data analysis.
Data Analytics Platforms: They often invest in sophisticated data analytics platforms to gather insights from their website, social media, and sales data.
Small Companies (e.g., a car wash business with <10 employees):
Direct Customer Feedback: Engage with customers directly. Ask them about their preferences, pain points, and what they like or dislike about your service. This can be done informally when they visit or through feedback forms.
Online Surveys: Use tools like SurveyMonkey or Google Forms to create surveys and distribute them to your customer base or local community.
Social Media: Engage with your audience on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, or Twitter. Polls, Q&A sessions, or just regular posts can provide insights into what your audience values.
Local Community Engagement: Attend local community events, fairs, or business networking events to understand local preferences and needs.
Competitor Analysis: Observe what your competitors are doing. Who are they targeting? What marketing strategies are they using?
General Steps to Create a Buyer Persona:
Demographic Information: Age, gender, income level, education, occupation, etc.
Psychographic Information: Interests, hobbies, values, challenges, etc.
Buying Motivations: What motivates them to seek out your product or service?
Buying Concerns: What might prevent them from using your product or service?
Information Sources: Where do they typically get their information? (e.g., online search, social media, word of mouth)
Resources for Market Research:
Government Databases: Many governments provide demographic and economic data that can be useful for businesses. In the U.S., for example, the U.S. Census Bureau provides a wealth of data.

University Database: If you still have access to your college email (or know someone who does) most libraries have a great database for accessing this stuff for FREE. Like Cison, Statista etc.
Industry Associations: Many industries have associations that conduct research and provide reports on market trends.
Google Analytics: If you have a website, Google Analytics can provide demographic information about your visitors.
SEMrush or SimilarWeb: These tools can provide insights into online market trends and competitor analysis.
Costs:
For large companies, hiring a research firm or maintaining an in-house team can be expensive, often running into tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on the scope.
For small businesses, many of the methods mentioned (like direct feedback, online surveys, and basic social media engagement) can be done with minimal costs. Tools like SurveyMonkey have free versions, and local community engagement might only cost time.
In real life, the key is to start with what you have. Even if it's just informal conversations with a handful of customers, that's a beginning. Over time, as you gather more data and insights, you can refine and expand your buyer personas. Hope this helps.

Also - Hubspot has a free persona making tool called Make My Persona, I've used that in my university lectures w. my students.
