1 00:00:46.660 00:00:47.560 Uttam Kumaran: Hey? How’s it going.

2 00:00:47.560 00:00:49.919 Abigail Zhao: Hey? I’m good. How are you?

3 00:00:50.130 00:00:50.940 Uttam Kumaran: Good

4 00:00:51.050 00:00:53.979 Uttam Kumaran: just trying to do some work outside for a bit.

5 00:00:55.720 00:00:58.489 Uttam Kumaran: How’s what’d you think of the the meeting this morning?

6 00:00:59.140 00:01:05.519 Abigail Zhao: It was good. It was really helpful. I feel like I learned a lot. It was definitely like a lot of stuff all at once, too. But I think

7 00:01:05.890 00:01:14.919 Abigail Zhao: like you said like those meeting. Those will definitely be really helpful and like just the figma in general, like, I’m just gonna take some time to like. Look through all that stuff, too. But yeah.

8 00:01:14.920 00:01:24.020 Uttam Kumaran: Cool. Yeah, I think it’s a little bit like it’s not like super intuitive. If you’re just like this is your 1st time kind of thinking about sales. But otherwise it’s just a process

9 00:01:24.100 00:01:36.169 Uttam Kumaran: like we just have different relationships between things. And I think basically, we’ll get to the point where, like, we’re each working on like a different part of the workflow. And then those meetings will be more like demos and like, kind of collaboration. So

10 00:01:37.830 00:01:44.609 Uttam Kumaran: yeah. And I guess you know these meetings. I just wanted to kind of, I just have like one on ones with everybody every week, basically

11 00:01:44.680 00:02:03.060 Uttam Kumaran: trying to just carve out time. That is just time. If you have any questions or anything that I can clear up or basically like any feedback about how things are going. I know it’s the 1st week, so you might not have a ton. But I know you’ve been taking a look at notion, and anything so anything I can

12 00:02:03.090 00:02:06.379 Uttam Kumaran: answer or clear up. Let me know.

13 00:02:06.750 00:02:14.800 Abigail Zhao: Okay. Yeah, I did. Just. I’ve been like looking through all the like. Things like the Apollo

14 00:02:14.890 00:02:21.789 Abigail Zhao: instantly. Like all that stuff. I’ve mostly just been like watching Demos for it, because at the moment there’s like.

15 00:02:22.020 00:02:42.440 Abigail Zhao: not that much I could do like, anyway, because, like I also don’t want to like accidentally, send like a hundred emails or something. So yeah, I’ve mainly just been watching Demos and like, kind of going through it. I guess my main question, though, was, what exactly are we using Hubspot for? Cause? That one I’m just like, not as like familiar with.

16 00:02:42.630 00:02:49.369 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So Hubspot is basically going to be used as the area to hold all the people that we’ve contacted.

17 00:02:49.872 00:02:55.307 Uttam Kumaran: And so the reason why there’s the reason why there’s a couple of tools is

18 00:02:55.770 00:02:58.659 Uttam Kumaran: Hubspot is going to kind of be the home for

19 00:02:58.700 00:03:12.029 Uttam Kumaran: any sort of contact that we have, whether that’s someone that we’ve emailed. We’ve texted some people on our network. And then Hubspot will actually hold the information about when’s the last time we contacted them. And and what stage of the pipeline they’re on?

20 00:03:12.412 00:03:14.950 Uttam Kumaran: Apollo is going to host information about

21 00:03:15.150 00:03:41.319 Uttam Kumaran: getting new people into that list, and then instantly is gonna host emailing the people from that list. So you could think of like somewhere, how like Github is like our code base. So all the code is centralized. Notion is like our central place for any sort of like writing. Hubspot will be the central place for any sort of contact. So how? How do we know them? How are they related to brainforce? Have we emailed them before? What do we email them with will all be kind of centralized there.

22 00:03:42.680 00:03:49.810 Uttam Kumaran: and it’s typically described as like a like a Crm, you know. So that’ll be the the main

23 00:03:49.920 00:03:52.090 Uttam Kumaran: kind of thing we use that for.

24 00:03:52.910 00:03:59.180 Abigail Zhao: Okay. Okay. Yeah. I mean, that was, honestly, I was all I was curious about, obviously like I,

25 00:03:59.540 00:04:09.430 Abigail Zhao: and just still like introducing myself to these new like sites or whatever. So I don’t have anything like super specific right now. But yeah.

26 00:04:09.660 00:04:14.890 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Maybe the one thing is, I just slacked you. A link to Onepa password. I want to get you an.

27 00:04:14.890 00:04:15.390 Abigail Zhao: Oh, okay.

28 00:04:15.390 00:04:17.025 Uttam Kumaran: Kind of what I mentioned this morning is

29 00:04:17.339 00:04:25.479 Uttam Kumaran: we’re just gonna split my login so that I don’t have to pay like a bunch more so if you just want to go through that link and install one password.

30 00:04:25.650 00:04:26.456 Abigail Zhao: And then

31 00:04:26.860 00:04:29.799 Uttam Kumaran: Just want to do that. Now I’ll make sure you get into the sales.

32 00:04:30.340 00:04:30.660 Abigail Zhao: Okay.

38 00:04:43.406 00:04:46.099 Abigail Zhao: Yeah, I I got that before, I think.
