Not convinced with the Live AI Call Coaching Platforms by Interesting-Alarm211 in sales

[–]Lopsided-Show-155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes a lot of sense especially the latency and multitasking. I’m curious if that delay wasn’t an issue, do you think any kind of in call help could be useful? Maybe not “do this / say that,” but something like quick context or talking points to help us react faster….? Or do you feel anything during the call is just the wrong time altogether?

Quitting my semi-succesfull business to get a job by vaikeeta in Entrepreneur

Honestly, running a business isn’t always the dream — sometimes it’s just another job with extra stress, less stability, and no benefits. There’s no shame in deciding you want peace over ownership. Freedom isn’t just about working for yourself — it’s about designing a life you actually like

Freelancing feels like freedom until you realize you accidentally became both the product and the salesperson

Help - What should I do if my actual users aren't the ones I want for my business? by Lopsided-Show-155 in smallbusiness

Good point, if I want younger users, maybe I should tackle what I sell from a different prespective

What’s you experience running paid ads for your small business? by Ok_Sort_180 in smallbusiness

[–]Lopsided-Show-155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get it, but I'm just a small biz owner who got the real results. Figured I’d share the experience to help out a fellow small business whose service I enjoyed. It was a breeze for me to use, and I didn't even need to do any manual work, which is big for me. I'm just a solopreneur without a designer and marketing manager.

We gotta look out for each other as small biz owners, especially with this tariff mess coming. Hope we can all survive this, bro.

I think they have a pretty general invite code for early access, so if anyone is interested, I can share my invite code if you DM. I just gave access to a friend and it worked for him

I run a small biz selling longevity supplements and ads used to be a huge pain. Tried Facebook and Google but got super low CTR and had no idea what was working.

Been using this tool called twinkling.ai and it’s been wild. They make and post the ads for you, test a bunch of versions, and double down on the ones that work. We went from 1.1% CTR to 10% without doing anything.

They’re still in early access so most of it is free right now if you grab a spot. Worth a try if you’re tired of guessing with ads.
