3 00:01:17.160 ⇒ 00:01:18.200 Uttam Kumaran: Hi! How are you?
4 00:01:23.630 ⇒ 00:01:24.709 Uttam Kumaran: How’s everything?
5 00:01:24.990 ⇒ 00:01:26.350 Marianne Jarvis: Good! How are you?
6 00:01:26.350 ⇒ 00:01:30.090 Uttam Kumaran: Good. Thanks. Sorry about the delay. Just running around today.
7 00:01:30.280 ⇒ 00:01:39.489 Marianne Jarvis: No worries, no worries. I was at San Francisco all of last week with Sid and a Mike and a bunch of the commercial team. So yeah.
8 00:01:39.490 ⇒ 00:01:40.010 Uttam Kumaran: Great.
9 00:01:40.010 ⇒ 00:01:49.193 Marianne Jarvis: Yeah, it’s a lot to do. But now, like actually focusing on all of our action items. So it’s kind of been a weird last week. But now back to normal.
10 00:01:49.680 ⇒ 00:01:53.849 Uttam Kumaran: Awesome. Yeah, I think I’m speaking with Sid and Mike on Wednesday, actually.
11 00:01:54.310 ⇒ 00:02:11.129 Marianne Jarvis: Awesome. Great. Yeah. I gave them a little bit of a sneak peek of the blog post that you shared and they love it. They’re obviously we’re very thankful that you’re even writing something like this. So I think we wanted just to touch base today on a couple of the like
12 00:02:11.330 ⇒ 00:02:16.318 Marianne Jarvis: like execution items for it, and then hopefully, we can get this up and running soon.
13 00:02:16.630 ⇒ 00:02:20.173 Uttam Kumaran: Correct. Yeah, I still need to do a little bit of work on my end.
14 00:02:20.870 ⇒ 00:02:29.879 Uttam Kumaran: I I’m just glad I had this meeting in my calendar because I totally would have missed it. I just need to do a little bit more work on on my end on the draft,
15 00:02:30.230 ⇒ 00:02:44.280 Uttam Kumaran: But otherwise, like we have our blog and everything kind of like ready to go. So maybe I’m I’m just gonna see if I can spend a little bit more time on it today and get it over to you. But I don’t. I think that should be
16 00:02:44.710 ⇒ 00:02:48.890 Uttam Kumaran: it on my end, like not much else in terms of the draft.
17 00:02:49.130 ⇒ 00:02:57.350 Marianne Jarvis: I think so. Here, and I can just share the screen. So the one comment. Obviously, these are your words. So we don’t want to like
18 00:02:57.885 ⇒ 00:02:59.129 Marianne Jarvis: like, have you
19 00:02:59.170 ⇒ 00:03:07.959 Marianne Jarvis: tell you exactly what to say? But the one comment, if you can think about messaging is for point number 3, and then I can just share my screen. Just so we’re looking at the same thing.
20 00:03:08.787 ⇒ 00:03:17.989 Marianne Jarvis: Where it says Duckdb, back end our thought is because internally, we use duck Bdb, but we also use click house for a lot of our customers.
21 00:03:17.990 ⇒ 00:03:18.810 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
22 00:03:18.810 ⇒ 00:03:34.909 Marianne Jarvis: Possibly you could just talk like the title, be something about like high performance, or always optimize for performance. And then you can talk about duck to be, because I think a lot of people know duck to be. But if you could write like duck to be and click house or example, databases duck to be and click house or something.
23 00:03:34.910 ⇒ 00:03:36.259 Uttam Kumaran: Totally. I can do that. Yeah.
24 00:03:36.640 ⇒ 00:03:37.399 Marianne Jarvis: Stock, TV.
25 00:03:37.400 ⇒ 00:03:37.990 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Yeah.
26 00:03:38.370 ⇒ 00:03:43.689 Marianne Jarvis: Feedback. But yeah, well, right here we are talking about like this. Go.
27 00:03:43.690 ⇒ 00:03:45.060 Uttam Kumaran: Talk about the pricing. Yeah.
28 00:03:45.240 ⇒ 00:04:09.280 Marianne Jarvis: Yeah, so honestly, if you think it’s up and ready, I think. And I don’t know what you have planned for your social media getting it ready on your end. But if you want to, if you think it’ll be ready by Wednesday, I honestly think we should maybe do a push this Wednesday, and then do another push next week, right after Labor Day. And then in that second push, maybe we can add a video or just another
29 00:04:09.280 ⇒ 00:04:25.849 Marianne Jarvis: second push for it next week. But if you’re ready, I think we’d be happy to start promoting it and pushing traction to both our sites. This Wednesday. I wouldn’t on Friday, I I think, if it’s not ready by Wednesday, wait till next week, just because people are on vacation. So just throwing that out there.
30 00:04:25.850 ⇒ 00:04:31.009 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. And I think I I owe you. I have some points at Number 3 that I have in my other notes, but I.
31 00:04:31.010 ⇒ 00:04:37.816 Marianne Jarvis: Yeah. So I just added this today, too. So obviously, this is going to be a blog on your side. But I thought what we could do is
32 00:04:38.060 ⇒ 00:05:03.040 Marianne Jarvis: create something on our end. More, we’re actually gonna start to do. Kind of a engineering leader. Founders. Blog series. QA. Something. This is an example of just like interviewing our different customers and a few different questions. So this is actually something that we’re about to launch over the next couple of weeks. So we definitely want to include you as one of the
33 00:05:03.588 ⇒ 00:05:05.781 Marianne Jarvis: engineering leaders and customers.
34 00:05:06.410 ⇒ 00:05:11.990 Marianne Jarvis: for us. So, and it’s totally whatever’s easiest for you. These are kind of.
35 00:05:11.990 ⇒ 00:05:14.149 Uttam Kumaran: No, these are. These are super great. Yeah.
36 00:05:14.150 ⇒ 00:05:29.859 Marianne Jarvis: Yeah. So you can just type answers back. Or if it’s too much time to type, answers back, we. We’ve also done it before where we just like hop on a 15 min zoom call, and you I just ask the question, and you tell me your answer, that I make it all pretty and.
37 00:05:29.860 ⇒ 00:05:48.051 Uttam Kumaran: These are easy. I will. Just, I’ll just get this. Get these done that way. You have that text. And then that’s perfect. So yeah, I’m gonna see? I’m working with our team on some social assets. But I’m gonna see whether I can push for Wednesday. And if not, yeah, I’ll take your advice and probably do it after the
38 00:05:48.520 ⇒ 00:05:55.370 Uttam Kumaran: after the holiday. But I’m kind of hoping we can get at least get it up there and then promote it next week, you know.
39 00:05:55.370 ⇒ 00:06:08.140 Marianne Jarvis: Yeah, absolutely. And then, once you do your promotion, we’ll do our amplification on this side, and then maybe just a few days or a week, Max. After that, if we have these answers here, then we’ll promote this, and then link back out to you.
40 00:06:08.310 ⇒ 00:06:09.420 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, perfect.
41 00:06:09.600 ⇒ 00:06:18.479 Marianne Jarvis: Cool, I think. That was the main thing. We just wanna make sure we’re on track. But over the next few days or week. We’ll get something out there on Linkedin.
42 00:06:18.480 ⇒ 00:06:33.629 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, great, alright. So I I will get back to you as soon as I have those answers there and then kind of have my end that way. You can just give it a final read over, and I’ll probably have a preview ready on our staging site that you’ll be able to take a look at, and then we can go from there.
43 00:06:33.630 ⇒ 00:06:39.399 Marianne Jarvis: Perfect, and then I’ll just make a note here. But everything looked all per good in terms of
44 00:06:40.000 ⇒ 00:06:44.330 Uttam Kumaran: I just wanna yeah, I just wanna take a look at the length and like how it shows up on the page. So.
