What was your biggest in front of a prospect?

What was your biggest 🤦‍♂️ moment in front of a client?

What was your worst experience? My first one still gives me nightmares, even though it was over a decade ago! Sweating through my suit, product crashing, mind totally blanking out and then having to sit down in a corner while my CTO saves the day! 😅

Here's me talking about possibly one of the biggest demo fails of my career. Why? Because it was also the demo that taught me about 90% of everything I needed to know about making a sale.

h/t Tarun for saving my *** that day! 😅

A big shout out to the wonderful folks at GrowthX® for helping me tell my SmartCue story.

Preseed at

I experienced first-hand the power of community building when raising my pre-seed round. and the powerful community they've built have helped me and SmartCue across all aspects - from fundraising to user testing to GTM strategies.

🧚‍♂️ There are angels, and there are angels.

Few know how much SmartCue owes to GrowthX. Back when I was raising my pre-seed, I had just put the word out when two members from GrowthX saw SmartCue's potential, and responded in a way that blew me away. 🙏

Call it serendipity. Call it confidence in a strong product. Call it fate. I'll call it the power of community. GrowthX is where the best talent congregates, and the best people.

Product Hunt launch

🤗 I didn't truly believe in the power of a community, but when I started SmartCue, I slowly started to see the value. Since then, I've been fortunate to be a part of a few communities, but the one that made me a true convert is hands-down 👉 GrowthX

If you know me, you know I just launched SmartCue on Product Hunt, and we swung big. We wanted to reach the #1 spot, to be Product of the Day, and thanks to the wonderful support I got from GrowthX and other communities, we made it!

Here's a little snippet of me, talking to the team at GrowthX about how we made it happen. Full video dropping on Thursday! 🎉


What is takes to launch on ProductHunt and the power of community to have a successful launch! Sneak peek from my conversations at the offsite 2022!
