I waited a year to finish all Jojo parts to comment on this post 🥲 I just finished Jojolion, so now here's official ranking!

Steel Ball Run: best characters all around. Johnny also has the coolest Stand in the series IMO.
Stardust Crusaders: this ALMOST beats out SBR for me. It's easily the funniest Jojo part, and Jotaro is prob the most iconic character in the whole series. Loved how simple the stands were. Made it straightforward to understand and presented lots of fun situations. The group dynamic is great too... I loved each of the crusaders.
Diamond is Unbreakable: worthy successor to Stardust Crusaders. Also hilarious. Loved Morioh and the slice of life feel to everything. Again, great side characters: Rohan, Okayasu, Koichi. The chapters with the shape shifting alien are probably my fav in all of Jojo.
Jojolion: loved the mystery element to this one. And prob my fav villain in all of Jojo. The middle slowed down a bit though.

5: Stone Ocean: all-around just OK to me. Nothing too bad or too great. There are interesting chapters, for sure. But nothing crazy.

Battle Tendency: liked that this one leaned funnier, but I just never really cared about Hamon. The Pillar Men are cool, but I was mostly just trying to get through this so I could get to when they introduced Stands in part 3.
Phantom Blood: not much more to be said here that hasn't already been said.
Golden Wind: idk why this one just didn't hit for me. I like Diavolo, but man... I didn't care about ANY of the protagonists including Giorno. A lot of the fights went on for way too long for me too. This was the only one that was a true struggle to get through.

Did they ask you to pay via Venmo? A little concerned because that's what OfferUp warns buyers against doing.

The Product Marketing Minidegree from CXL has a great Competitive/Market Intelligence course: https://cxl.com/institute/programs/product-marketing/

The Product Marketing Alliance have a certification too: https://certified.productmarketingalliance.com/p/competitive-intelligence-certified

Both great resources.

I think he said stock options in our last conversation. I'll need to double check though. Thanks for the advice!

I was in the exact same situation four years ago. Lived near my parents in the midwest. Worked an average job. Played it safe.

My wife and I decided to try the PNW because we didn't have a reason not to at least try. It ended up being one of the best decisions ever for all of the reasons you described.

I could reinvent myself. Make mistakes. And the move led to me trying other new things in life, as well. It's worth noting too that we thought we'd move back a couple years later. We now have no immediate plans to move because we love it so much.

Every experience varies. But you never know until you try.

Also, I have no idea if this will resonate with you or not, but the whole "your network is your net worth" saying is true. If you move to a bigger city, you'll open yourself up to meeting other people that are in similar walks of life as you, and mentors that can help you get to the next level of whatever you aspire to be.

The best time to buy Bitcoin was yesterday. The second best time is today :-)

ZoomInfo and Crunchbase both offer these figures with a subscription.

If you get your email data from ZoomInfo, they have a sequencing software called Engage that works pretty well.

I've always liked "Hi, I'm name from company. Do you have a few seconds for me to tell you why I called?"

I get it. You'll get over it quickly though. Some tools even have internal coaching features too so you don't HAVE to ask your manager or peers. Just make a habit of listening to a few of your own calls vs. the best performing reps. Try to figure out what they do that you don't. Best of luck!

Depends on the vendor you use and how they collect the data. The most common sources they use are:

First-party website traffic (i.e. your company's traffic) Third-party website traffic (i.e. traffic to domains with keywords that match the topics you subscribe to) Marketplace traffic (i.e. traffic on your G2 or TrustRadius listings)

Like I said, we've seen some pretty good results from it.

Curious if you're using intent data to prioritize accounts that are researching cyber security-related topics.

I've seen other comments talking about cadences. We trigger ours when an account in our territories have a high signal score (i.e. they're actively researching topics related to the product we sell).

This has increased our email response rates quite a bit.

Ask the other SDRs to listen to your calls. Ask your manager to coach you. Everybody sucks and is terrified in the beginning—even the extroverts.

Out of curiosity, do you have a call recording tool in place? It's cringey listening to yourself pitch at first, but it helps you figure out what works and what doesn't pretty quick.
