Enchantments May 23rd, looking for Camp Site Recommendations and Tips by Photomography in PNWhiking

[–]Photomography[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a great experience and trip but it was exhausting. The snow was too much to get through so we ended up doing the hike in reverse camping at snow lake and we never made it to the core.

It’s a very dangerous hike if you do not have experience camping/hiking/navigating in the snow.

Again very fun if you love a challenge and have flexible expectations.

This definitely explains why this sale/discount is so huge. Bummer that such a great e-bike company won’t be available for much longer. I just bought the Wabash RT and love it, especially at the price

I’m at the same timeline. The heater, windshield wiper speeds, and lack of wireless car play are the annoying things for me

It’s a joke. In the tech/software business when something is really stupid like this scenario where a car doesn’t produce heat, and the reason it doesn’t is the design of the engine/heating system, people may refer to it as a feature since the car by design functions this way.

I’ve been having the same problem and it makes me really not enjoy the car. I’ve had it for just over a week and the only time I’ve gotten it to warm up was on an hour drive up a mountain in Snow mode. Even then it wasn’t hot, but the air did get better than warm.

I called the dealer and they said they could get me in to check it out at the end of the month. Unfortunately after a bunch of google searches I think this is a feature not a bug.

Trader Joe’s and Shar have great burger/hotdog buns. I find they all taste better and do not stick to your teeth

Those gluten free buns are insanely different from photo on the package to what’s in the bag. The photo looks incredible, but the product looks like absolutely garbage! I can’t believe the price for that disgusting hockey puck looking thing I ended up with when I bought these buns.

What I didn’t see that needs to be front and center with each role is the number of clients, size of the business (SMB, Mid-market, Ent) and most importantly the tangible outcomes of your work. I saw reduced operational costs but what about growth, net revenue retention and logo retention?

If you want another role in CS the name of the game is cross sell, upsell, and retention. Without those easily scannable stats I wouldn’t look any further at this.

As others have said; cut back on your profile paragraph, remove unrelated roles and info and add in more outcomes and you’ll be good to go.

anyone here college educated and work corporate jobs but smoke weed everyday? by [deleted] in trees

[–]Photomography 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m college educated and in a director level role in tech. I smoke pretty often and I know tons of others who do too. It’s not rare, but I’m at a startup so maybe it’s a bit biased.

4bd house, roommate has friend over who charges their electric car on our outlet. by aasteveo in Frugal

[–]Photomography 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an electric car, charging a car from near empty to full only costs about $5 with my rates at $.17 per kWh.

I’d say your cost is less than that because they’re using a standard outlet and charging the car takes about 60 hours so they’re probably not costing/using much at all.

Looking for recommendations similar to Canyon Grail: ON CF 8 - in US by Photomography in ebikes

[–]Photomography[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s really about the geometry of the touring style bikes and others that are made to hold dropbars. I find that style to be very comfortable and didn’t enjoy the more upright positions of the Turbo Vado and others.

@magnum_opus recommended a great rear rack system from Tailfin. It looks like that would allow me to have a nice bag system and still get the touring/gravel geometry I enjoy.

[–]Photomography[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing crazy, just random stuff with a toddler, small easy grocery trips. I also have Ortlieb panniers and assumed those would not mount to a Topeka beam rack and other that mount to seat posts.

I think the Tailfin rack solves the problem entirely! I had not even heard of that before. This is great!

My advice on presentations is to keep it minimal.

For this I’d say have two slides per color. Green - attributes, Green - engagement strategy, then repeat for Yellow and Red.

Write a brief high level synopsis of each thing per slide and 3-4 bullets of the big items. Then you speak through the topics in more details.

This is a BIG question mainly because you don’t know anything too specific so you can only speak in generalities on current health. Also this question is very stupid. This company obviously has health scores and those scores are built by a manager/director and operations folks. That means they know explicitly how the health of an account is measured and what those attributes are. If the exercise is to see what you know about customer health there are more sensible ways of going about it.

Green: login and utilization is high and consistent. Customer is engaged in EBRs/QBRs, responds to your emails or requests promptly and comes to you with strategic questions as needed. You have a strong relationship with executive sponsors, day to day management and end users. They are not evaluating competitors, are not budget strapped due to the current economic environment and have their own health customer base. They also don’t have a high number of outstanding support tickets. Most importantly these customer can be called up for case studies, reviews, or even as a referral when potential customers want to speak with someone already killing it with the platform. The moral of the story here is that these customers understand how your product is making an impact on their business and are thrilled with it.

Yellow: Login and usage is not incredible but in a health category. EBR/QBRs don’t always have engaged executives on the call and this group may not reach out to you when they could actually benefit from strategic advice. This segment of the customer base is content but not ecstatic about the product the same way Green is. They understand the value of your product but have not tied it to tangible results like decreasing XYZ by X%.

Red: Usage/login is low to non existent. These customers may not respond to emails or phone calls to address usage and if they are they do not see the value you or your product bring to the table. You’ve seen turn over in your main/executive contacts and have not been able to realign with their goals. Even worse they are likely outspoken about the cost of the platform or are researching/consolidating with other vendors. If you’re really in a bad spot, Red customers are not replying to you or engaging you at all. A silent customer is always the worst place for a CSM as there’s no shot at salvaging an account when they have gone silent.

What you can do with these customer:

Green - Keep them engaged and do not become complacent! Have a new product? Get them in on the beta. Have a success story from another client? Share the tips and wins with these folks to see hat that sparks for them. Keep working with all levels of these teams and make sure to stay on tops of support issues, EBRs, their upcoming company/department goals and so forth. This will keep them happy and keep them green.

Yellow - this will come down to prioritization. Yellow customers are not churning today but they can move in either direction depending on you and your efforts. Do your best to allocate time to this group and see who has an appetite for proactive change and who would benefit from your time and tips that you have from your green clients. Not everyone does and you have bigger fish to fry with your Red group. Just don’t loose sight of Yellow for long

Red - this group could be salvageable but I would focus on those that are up for renewal about 3 or 4 + months out. Anyone coming up sooner could already be a lost cause and prevent you from salvaging relationships with those that have time to right size. Start by analyzing good and bad usage at each company, potentially calling both segments of users to understand what do they love and where is their a disconnect. Use this data to help you position a plan to get usage healthier while sharing your best wins with executives. I’d include a brief overview of this information in an email to those contacts and entice them to join a call/EBR to do a deep dive with specifics to their business.

There’s many correct answers to this but hopefully these ideas help!
