WEBVTT

1 00:00:25.400 00:00:26.190 Mustafa Raja: Hey.

2 00:00:26.650 00:00:31.989 Justin Breshears: Hey, it’s the beauty of having these back-to-back. When we finish one, we can just roll right into the next.

3 00:00:31.990 00:00:32.350 Mustafa Raja: And yet…

4 00:00:32.350 00:00:33.280 Samuel Roberts: Perfect, yeah.

5 00:00:33.970 00:00:42.340 Justin Breshears: Alright, yeah, I know it’s silly to hop off of one Zoom, just hop on another, but it keeps all the recordings and notes separate, so I like that.

6 00:00:42.470 00:00:51.069 Justin Breshears: Okay, let’s start default… I know you’re working on this one… Updates in mind.needed.

7 00:00:51.070 00:00:58.010 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, so the data is there now, that, I just need to add charts into the dashboard now.

8 00:00:58.310 00:00:59.979 Mustafa Raja: Okay. So it’s halfway done.

9 00:01:00.220 00:01:01.740 Justin Breshears: You are unblocked, though.

10 00:01:02.430 00:01:03.629 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, I’m not blocked.

11 00:01:03.630 00:01:04.720 Justin Breshears: Okay, great.

12 00:01:05.560 00:01:07.800 Justin Breshears: And then how are we looking on…

13 00:01:08.200 00:01:12.619 Mustafa Raja: Let’s open this document, the Notion document that I have linked at the end.

14 00:01:14.020 00:01:14.620 Justin Breshears: Okay.

15 00:01:15.050 00:01:38.959 Mustafa Raja: Okay, so, based on the transcript, we have some baseline, requirements. So these fields, the providers should provide these fields no matter what, because these are essential, to default. But the idea behind this is they are trying to create a platform similar to Clay.

16 00:01:39.100 00:01:47.100 Mustafa Raja: where their customers would be able to enrich the leads, coming through forms, I believe.

17 00:01:47.530 00:01:52.999 Mustafa Raja: And what they want is data providers that they can use

18 00:01:53.000 00:02:17.519 Mustafa Raja: or they can, implement, into their platform, so then their customers would be able to use those data, providers, for enriching their leads. And then I create… so this is the baseline requirements, meaning, if any of these fields, employee count, HP location, industry category, funding rounds, any of these is missing.

19 00:02:17.550 00:02:30.689 Mustafa Raja: We are dropping that, data platform as a whole. And then we, and if the, if the baseline requirements depart it, then we come to the, the scoring criteria.

20 00:02:31.410 00:02:44.159 Mustafa Raja: the segment fit, is dependent on this DEF103 ticket, that is the dashboard that I am building, because, we need to see, the…

21 00:02:44.910 00:02:49.690 Mustafa Raja: Default customers, who are they selling to the most?

22 00:02:49.690 00:03:12.980 Mustafa Raja: If they are selling most to startups, or enterprises, or government, we need to… we need to know, we need to know that, so then, we would, while we are choosing the, data provider, we’ll see, okay, if this data provider is good with startups, or if this data provider is good with, enterprises, and so on and so.

23 00:03:12.980 00:03:16.800 Mustafa Raja: So this, this segment outlines that part of,

24 00:03:17.090 00:03:26.809 Mustafa Raja: the requirement, data accuracy, if you go up a little… yeah, the data, first point. So, the data accuracy,

25 00:03:26.840 00:03:39.139 Mustafa Raja: From the transcript, it said that, we can backtest 100 companies on, all of the suggested, what’s it called, data platforms.

26 00:03:39.890 00:03:43.670 Mustafa Raja: That seems a hectic task, but this is what he suggested.

27 00:03:44.430 00:03:56.189 Mustafa Raja: So yeah, so data accuracy is how accurate the data is, if the employee count is good, if the locations are perfect, and so and so.

28 00:03:56.330 00:04:05.340 Mustafa Raja: Right. Pricing and contract… contract flexibility. I think what they… what they want is, to be able

29 00:04:05.730 00:04:19.659 Mustafa Raja: To see if… if they can do a system like API credits that Apollo has, or PDL has. I think Aulio doesn’t have that, so…

30 00:04:20.300 00:04:29.099 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, the pricing, maybe… maybe I need to look a little more into this? I don’t know, but I feel…

31 00:04:30.280 00:04:31.400 Mustafa Raja: Hmm.

32 00:04:32.620 00:04:35.100 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, let me know what you think about this pricing one.

33 00:04:37.640 00:04:44.980 Mustafa Raja: Have you used Clay? Or Sam, do you have, do you have, the idea of clay, what it really does?

34 00:04:46.230 00:04:52.450 Samuel Roberts: I have a… OKSense, I think. I haven’t actually used it, but.

35 00:04:53.550 00:05:01.829 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, so the idea is that, they are only charged, once their customers use it.

36 00:05:03.280 00:05:07.820 Mustafa Raja: So no, no prepaid things, no prepaid contracts.

37 00:05:08.280 00:05:12.849 Justin Breshears: Sorry, guys, one second, y’all… y’all keep talking about this, I’m gonna be right back, okay? Sure.

38 00:05:14.330 00:05:20.750 Mustafa Raja: Okay, so, so the… yeah, I guess this is…

39 00:05:21.210 00:05:23.080 Mustafa Raja: Let me share my screen, then.

40 00:05:23.500 00:05:24.329 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, sorry.

41 00:05:24.620 00:05:26.740 Mustafa Raja: Motion.

42 00:05:29.450 00:05:32.120 Mustafa Raja: Let me open that up, and then I’ll share.

43 00:05:33.530 00:05:34.299 Samuel Roberts: Excuse me.

44 00:05:36.240 00:05:37.060 Mustafa Raja: Okay.

45 00:05:37.720 00:05:38.760 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

46 00:05:46.080 00:05:47.000 Mustafa Raja: Okay.

47 00:05:47.850 00:05:48.700 Mustafa Raja: Yep.

48 00:05:50.520 00:05:59.289 Mustafa Raja: So, yeah, the pricing, pricing one, I may need someone’s input, I don’t know. Okay. One other thing is that…

49 00:06:01.380 00:06:05.309 Mustafa Raja: they, they really like the Omni,

50 00:06:05.340 00:06:24.189 Mustafa Raja: the vendor Omni really responds very quick, if they, if they are requested for anything. So, if we are choosing a data vendor, they would want to choose data vendors that communicate really well. This is the exact chunk from the transcript.

51 00:06:24.340 00:06:30.610 Mustafa Raja: So we see, like Omni, we have a direct, through line to them.

52 00:06:30.980 00:06:36.189 Mustafa Raja: So there’s, like, a feature we need, there’s, like, a high chance I could ask for it, kind of.

53 00:06:36.190 00:06:37.170 Samuel Roberts: Right, right.

54 00:06:37.170 00:06:45.219 Mustafa Raja: And there are some, that say, other vendors, like, there’s no way we could even request that.

55 00:06:45.650 00:06:46.000 Samuel Roberts: temporary.

56 00:06:46.000 00:06:53.670 Mustafa Raja: So their preference would be that they are… oh, sorry, I don’t want to move that. Oh.

57 00:06:54.310 00:07:07.499 Mustafa Raja: So the preference would be that we choose vendors, or we choose vendors that are communicative and also responsive in terms of, getting things out quick.

58 00:07:09.500 00:07:10.260 Samuel Roberts: Okay.

59 00:07:10.730 00:07:21.469 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. And then uniqueness of signals was… there’s just one thing provided, the PDL’s unique SKUs, I don’t know what SKUs are. SKUs.

60 00:07:21.470 00:07:26.350 Samuel Roberts: uses a, stock-keeping unit. It’s like the barcodes on products.

61 00:07:27.170 00:07:31.599 Mustafa Raja: Well, this is something that they would want.

62 00:07:31.600 00:07:31.980 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.

63 00:07:31.980 00:07:40.949 Mustafa Raja: uniqueness of signals in this. It makes sense. Yeah, let me know, do you have… do you have a gist of what they… what they, what they’re trying to implement now?

64 00:07:41.530 00:07:44.010 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, overall.

65 00:07:44.010 00:07:55.230 Mustafa Raja: Yeah. So, do you feel this… this model is good enough to cater to this? I think what I need here is someone’s review, someone’s…

66 00:07:55.430 00:07:59.390 Mustafa Raja: Review on this model, if this is good enough, based on the transcript.

67 00:08:00.750 00:08:05.039 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, okay, so, can you…

68 00:08:07.790 00:08:14.729 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I mean, it looks pretty good, but I didn’t… I don’t know if I have the… can you share me the link to the meeting and this?

69 00:08:14.950 00:08:18.310 Mustafa Raja: Actually, this was a granola, so what we.

70 00:08:18.310 00:08:22.220 Samuel Roberts: Okay, then send me the transcript and that, and I’ll.

71 00:08:22.600 00:08:23.939 Mustafa Raja: I will do that.

72 00:08:24.130 00:08:26.260 Samuel Roberts: I’ll just do a quick pass over it, I won’t…

73 00:08:26.860 00:08:35.200 Samuel Roberts: go too… too deep, because it looks pretty good, I’m assuming that’s pretty… pretty good. But I will… I’ll try to understand it a bit more.

74 00:08:37.380 00:08:38.579 Justin Breshears: Sorry, I’m back.

75 00:08:40.270 00:08:40.670 Samuel Roberts: Don’t worry.

76 00:08:40.809 00:08:42.009 Mustafa Raja: is the trans.

77 00:08:42.010 00:08:43.359 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, okay, yeah, sure.

78 00:08:43.360 00:08:44.020 Mustafa Raja: That…

79 00:08:44.020 00:08:46.130 Samuel Roberts: And this notion, to me.

80 00:08:46.230 00:08:49.439 Mustafa Raja: I mean, I am attaching these to the ticket.

81 00:08:49.930 00:08:50.670 Samuel Roberts: Perfect.

82 00:08:51.110 00:08:51.770 Justin Breshears: Ugh.

83 00:08:53.610 00:08:56.160 Justin Breshears: Has Utam seen this notion?

84 00:08:56.160 00:08:56.760 Mustafa Raja: Nope.

85 00:08:58.150 00:08:59.519 Justin Breshears: We need to get his eyes on it?

86 00:09:00.040 00:09:01.080 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.

87 00:09:03.310 00:09:07.750 Mustafa Raja: So this is the transcript, this is the document notion? No… Okay.

88 00:09:08.720 00:09:09.800 Samuel Roberts: Okay, cool, I see that.

89 00:09:13.280 00:09:19.970 Mustafa Raja: Okay. Can you just tag me on this one so I see this too, because I’m… Awesome.

90 00:09:20.270 00:09:22.110 Samuel Roberts: Thanks.

91 00:09:29.150 00:09:30.080 Mustafa Raja: This is good, right?

92 00:09:33.980 00:09:34.910 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I can, I can take a look.

93 00:09:34.910 00:09:40.320 Mustafa Raja: And I guess we have a meeting tomorrow with them, so… so… .

94 00:09:40.880 00:09:45.639 Justin Breshears: Yeah, what I would like to get is this stuff, like, internally finalized, or, like.

95 00:09:45.640 00:09:46.230 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

96 00:09:46.230 00:09:48.900 Justin Breshears: About presenting it to them, and then get their input tomorrow?

97 00:09:48.900 00:09:53.479 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, this is what I would want also. Yeah.

98 00:09:53.730 00:09:54.330 Mustafa Raja: If you can’.

99 00:09:54.330 00:09:54.940 Samuel Roberts: I’ll get some feedback.

100 00:09:54.940 00:10:03.209 Mustafa Raja: get it done today, we should be able to present it tomorrow. So then, after that, we’ll be able to test it, because

101 00:10:03.710 00:10:07.730 Mustafa Raja: We need to… few hundred companies that they are going to provide us.

102 00:10:08.240 00:10:08.900 Samuel Roberts: Okay.

103 00:10:09.040 00:10:11.919 Mustafa Raja: They are only going to provide this if they feel good about this.

104 00:10:12.390 00:10:13.250 Samuel Roberts: Good, okay.

105 00:10:14.490 00:10:22.149 Samuel Roberts: Great work. Oh, yeah. Yeah, it looks good. I’ll give some feedback, and then we can probably run it by Utam as well, and then we should be good.

106 00:10:22.670 00:10:28.490 Mustafa Raja: Okay, so for today, my goal is going to, publish this dashboard.

107 00:10:29.860 00:10:31.240 Mustafa Raja: Sweet. That we have over here.

108 00:10:33.870 00:10:34.270 Samuel Roberts: Sounds good.

109 00:10:34.270 00:10:37.999 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, this should be it then.

110 00:10:39.490 00:10:40.580 Mustafa Raja: Okay. From my side.

111 00:10:40.580 00:10:43.580 Samuel Roberts: This is… I think I heard you earlier, but this is unblocked by aish now.

112 00:10:43.580 00:10:53.740 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, actually, maybe we want to create one more ticket, because I am seeing that,

113 00:10:54.600 00:10:58.989 Mustafa Raja: The estimate points should match how many hours we spent.

114 00:10:59.220 00:11:04.970 Mustafa Raja: Right. So, Avish and I synced for 40 minutes, on Git…

115 00:11:06.030 00:11:09.330 Samuel Roberts: On this… Okay. …on issue that is not related.

116 00:11:09.790 00:11:10.550 Mustafa Raja: Only.

117 00:11:12.250 00:11:17.340 Mustafa Raja: Let me get, let me explain what’s happening. So, we have a… we had the.

118 00:11:17.340 00:11:18.090 Samuel Roberts: Oh, yes.

119 00:11:18.090 00:11:28.080 Mustafa Raja: That’s right, okay. That was missing some data. We did a backfill, and then what we did is… it still didn’t,

120 00:11:28.790 00:11:45.209 Mustafa Raja: Fix. So, what really was happening is we have some filters over here that we didn’t notice, and this whole filter was applied to this, it’s not anymore. And that was blocking all of this data.

121 00:11:46.700 00:11:56.750 Mustafa Raja: So this is what, was figured out in that meeting. So, 40 minutes we spent in there, so maybe a ticket about that.

122 00:12:01.000 00:12:12.119 Justin Breshears: Yeah, that’d be good. Any time that you spend on a project, yeah, it needs to be tracked in a ticket. You can just say, like, troubleshooting, you know, missing data in OmniDashboard or something like that.

123 00:12:13.050 00:12:13.790 Mustafa Raja: True.

124 00:12:14.470 00:12:15.220 Justin Breshears: Shit.

125 00:12:15.510 00:12:17.330 Mustafa Raja: Ding… divash.

126 00:12:17.840 00:12:18.780 Justin Breshears: Thank you.

127 00:12:18.780 00:12:20.619 Mustafa Raja: Excuse me for being on top of that, because, yeah, that…

128 00:12:20.620 00:12:21.609 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, that’s a good catch.

129 00:12:21.610 00:12:27.329 Justin Breshears: That’s really helpful for reporting to clients and reporting internally, too.

130 00:12:29.340 00:12:31.869 Justin Breshears: Ms. Safev, I told you you’re the man?

131 00:12:34.060 00:12:42.779 Samuel Roberts: Keep that in mind, because I’m about to send, you a feedback form to give some feedback for him, because I’m doing monthly reviews on Monday. So, remember this.

132 00:12:42.780 00:12:43.540 Justin Breshears: Alright.

133 00:12:44.820 00:12:48.069 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, this team is, okay, this is good, right?

134 00:12:49.040 00:12:51.459 Mustafa Raja: Let’s not make me a signee.

135 00:12:53.440 00:12:54.670 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, this should be good.

136 00:12:55.120 00:13:03.009 Mustafa Raja: Okay, one more thing I did, but… I’m forgetting what was the…

137 00:13:04.490 00:13:08.279 Mustafa Raja: But I didn’t spend only 20 minutes on that, so not a big deal.

138 00:13:10.110 00:13:11.759 Mustafa Raja: So yeah, this is it for me. Thank you.

139 00:13:11.760 00:13:12.400 Samuel Roberts: Okay.

140 00:13:14.450 00:13:18.600 Samuel Roberts: Alright, so I will review, I…

141 00:13:18.600 00:13:19.570 Mustafa Raja: Oh, I have…

142 00:13:19.570 00:13:20.420 Samuel Roberts: A question.

143 00:13:20.420 00:13:21.630 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

144 00:13:21.860 00:13:24.720 Mustafa Raja: Where do we log the meetings? For internal.

145 00:13:27.650 00:13:28.720 Samuel Roberts: You mean like this?

146 00:13:28.960 00:13:30.850 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, stand up, do we log it?

147 00:13:32.110 00:13:36.270 Justin Breshears: Yes, like, this’ll… the stand-ups will be logged as, like, billable time.

148 00:13:37.140 00:13:37.670 Mustafa Raja: Yeah.

149 00:13:37.770 00:13:39.210 Mustafa Raja: inclined…

150 00:13:40.480 00:13:41.190 Justin Breshears: Yes.

151 00:13:41.670 00:13:45.790 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, on Clockify, I don’t think we necessarily create a linear ticket for that, but…

152 00:13:45.790 00:13:48.759 Justin Breshears: No, you don’t have to create a linear ticket for it.

153 00:13:48.760 00:13:54.790 Mustafa Raja: I mean, if we want to track it with estimate points, we’ll have to know.

154 00:13:55.210 00:13:57.940 Justin Breshears: Yeah, but yeah, you don’t have to do that for stand-ups.

155 00:13:58.380 00:14:00.010 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, just…

156 00:14:00.010 00:14:01.479 Mustafa Raja: We do not the time.

157 00:14:01.720 00:14:02.300 Samuel Roberts: Yeah.

158 00:14:03.290 00:14:04.660 Mustafa Raja: Okay, yeah, I’ll do that.

159 00:14:04.660 00:14:08.099 Justin Breshears: Good question, but yeah, no, we don’t need to log stand-ups in linear.

160 00:14:08.350 00:14:13.199 Mustafa Raja: Because I’m on an hourly contract, so I need to log my hours, whatsoever.

161 00:14:13.200 00:14:17.739 Justin Breshears: Yeah, log them in Clockify, that’s the most important for your hourly contract.

162 00:14:17.740 00:14:18.480 Mustafa Raja: Yeah, yeah, yeah.

163 00:14:18.860 00:14:23.170 Justin Breshears: Linear estimates and stuff is just for reporting, like, work done to the client.

164 00:14:23.170 00:14:24.729 Mustafa Raja: Oh, okay, okay. Yeah.

165 00:14:24.730 00:14:43.460 Justin Breshears: So, like, when you meet on troubleshooting that data issue in the dashboard, like, that’s work being done for the client, so that’s something, you know, that we want to log in linear. But, like, us meeting for stand-ups is billable time, because we’re talking about the project, but it’s not, like, work being done, we’re just, like, reporting in and making sure we’re on the same page, right? Does that make sense?

166 00:14:43.460 00:14:46.150 Mustafa Raja: Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s good, that’s good, thank you.

167 00:14:46.330 00:14:51.769 Justin Breshears: Yeah, cool. Anything outside of a stand-up, though, yeah, we should probably log in linear.

168 00:14:52.620 00:14:53.290 Mustafa Raja: Okay.

169 00:14:53.950 00:14:56.000 Justin Breshears: Alright, thank you both. Appreciate it.

170 00:14:56.000 00:14:56.750 Samuel Roberts: Thank you.

171 00:14:57.260 00:15:01.030 Samuel Roberts: When do you want to, touch base about the insomnia thing you mentioned?

172 00:15:01.030 00:15:06.489 Justin Breshears: Yeah, let me… let me get my thoughts together, and I’ll take it… tag you, and then we can… we can sync on it.

173 00:15:06.490 00:15:14.310 Samuel Roberts: Okay, just for the record, I’m at a wedding on Friday, and I’m traveling tomorrow, so I’ll be communicato tomorrow, but…

174 00:15:14.310 00:15:18.749 Justin Breshears: That’s fine, it’s, oh, we have that meeting with Joseph tomorrow, though.

175 00:15:18.750 00:15:23.530 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, I’ll be in the car for that, so I’m, I’ll try to… that one I’m taking.

176 00:15:24.110 00:15:26.779 Justin Breshears: Okay. But I just, I won’t necessarily be.

177 00:15:27.400 00:15:28.720 Samuel Roberts: I mean… White as, yeah.

178 00:15:29.060 00:15:30.430 Justin Breshears: We need to.

179 00:15:32.390 00:15:43.970 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, honestly, this is what I’ve been trying to use. I just started using my, like, personal calendar with the work calendar on top of it, because I’ve been using the work calendar and didn’t really get the two together, and I forgot about the travel tomorrow, especially.

180 00:15:44.070 00:15:49.059 Samuel Roberts: But, if you… if you want, to bump it, I was planning to just take it in the car, but.

181 00:15:49.490 00:15:53.680 Justin Breshears: I think I’ll just shoot a note to him and be like, hey, I didn’t know Sam was out, can we…

182 00:15:53.680 00:15:57.070 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, sorry about that. Yeah, that’s fine. Early next week works.

183 00:15:57.300 00:15:58.310 Justin Breshears: Okay.

184 00:15:58.460 00:15:59.460 Justin Breshears: Sounds good.

185 00:16:00.050 00:16:06.020 Mustafa Raja: Okay, Sam, let me know if we need to meet on, interlude.

186 00:16:06.750 00:16:11.249 Samuel Roberts: Yeah, let me… let’s do that, yeah, let’s hop on something after this.

187 00:16:11.520 00:16:12.699 Mustafa Raja: Okay, thank you.
