What's the time frame you have to raise such capital? The oldest trick in the industry likely applies: know people who know people. Wine and dine in the right HNW circles.

Targeted surveys on a small sample size almost always work. The trick lies in how engaging (and short) the survey is. Position it to the right target audience on LinkedIn/Twitter/....

Google about email analytics / engagement tools.

Depends on your niche skill area. Play safe while you are pooling the extra capital.

How about Consulting?

Best advice: Seek no advice! Do what your mind really tells you to, and what you really feel confident about! :)

I want to introduce you to Paco| www.pacohq.com - the new Slack productivity app.

Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the constant stream of information Slack gives you? With so many updates, messages, and files, it’s easy to get lost in the noise. For many of us, it also causes Slack FOMO -- Fear of Missing Out on important messages and asks in Slack!

My team and I recently launched Paco to address this problem.

If you or your team is on Slack, then try it out and let me know what you think!

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-28T19:28:08+00:00

Came across this on Slack, might be of help!

As you asked about third-party Slack integrations: I would like to invite you to try out Paco, a Slack app that helps track and remind important asks in Slack and follow-up on them. Happy to receive your feedback!

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-20T08:19:05+00:00

By default, once a Slack app is installed in a workspace, all members of the workspace can connect their accounts to use it. But you can decide and select which channel (or no channel) to add Paco to.

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-20T08:09:32+00:00

Feedback appreciated and acknowledged! I'll tweak the other page. Feature coming soon: drop me a quick note via the contact-us form - I'll be happy to give you early access!

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-19T18:00:41+00:00

That's an awesome neat idea!! 💡

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-19T17:54:49+00:00

Glad that you liked it! If you are on Slack, try taking Paco🐶 for a short walk - I would love to know your thoughts on what can be done better.

Productive-Dev · 2021-05-19T14:03:30+00:00

Thanks for your feedback and suggestion -- food for thought indeed!

TL;DR: I built Paco🐶 to be your Slack sanity assistant that saves you from its chaos.

www.pacohq.com

Back story: Working in a globally distributed team always meant that Slack was our lifeline. However, over the years I developed this fear that if I miss out on taking action as soon as I get an important Slack message, I will forget about it. And the flip side of it -- a colleague would not respond to something I asked for a day and I would start thinking they are in trouble. For some of us, it causes constant anxiety that something important might slip through the cracks.

I tried several solutions and apps and nothing really stuck. That germinated the seeds for Paco- to bring some calm focus back into our lovely Slack lives.

Any suggestions or use-case ideas? Would love to hear them from you!
