32 00:02:16.200 ⇒ 00:02:21.865 Uttam Kumaran: Hey, yeah, I think maybe short meeting today, I didn’t know if there was a lot to review
33 00:02:24.169 ⇒ 00:02:29.100 Uttam Kumaran: But yeah, and let me know. I know on my side I’m
34 00:02:29.440 ⇒ 00:02:34.683 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna finish up. Probably all the deck review stuff this weekend
35 00:02:35.300 ⇒ 00:02:42.439 Uttam Kumaran: have a bunch of feedback there and then, yeah, I gave comment yesterday on the Newsletter footer.
36 00:02:42.920 ⇒ 00:02:48.039 Uttam Kumaran: and then I think Haleem said, search is ready, although I haven’t watched his video yet.
37 00:02:51.120 ⇒ 00:02:54.500 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Anything else we need to cover.
38 00:02:56.907 ⇒ 00:03:06.710 Anne: Yep, I think. Depending currently are the search North Bar and the footer Newsletter.
39 00:03:07.300 ⇒ 00:03:16.030 Anne: and then I’m not sure if Ryan is here. But I’ve done already all the images he needs for the content side.
40 00:03:17.160 ⇒ 00:03:18.419 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, okay, perfect.
41 00:03:18.600 ⇒ 00:03:20.940 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. The only thing coming up.
42 00:03:21.710 ⇒ 00:03:29.499 Uttam Kumaran: and I think hopefully, we’ll have this ready next week is what we we should be all ready with our services and our pricing.
43 00:03:30.040 ⇒ 00:03:30.840 Uttam Kumaran: hey?
44 00:03:32.850 ⇒ 00:03:39.260 Uttam Kumaran: So I think from there what we’re gonna do and is, we’re gonna 1st probably create a 1 pager sheet
45 00:03:39.930 ⇒ 00:03:45.039 Uttam Kumaran: which will include all of our pricing and our services.
46 00:03:45.230 ⇒ 00:03:48.320 Uttam Kumaran: Kind of. We already have, I think, a version of this.
47 00:03:48.450 ⇒ 00:03:52.425 Uttam Kumaran: like we have the one. We have the data services and we have the
48 00:03:52.930 ⇒ 00:03:57.600 Uttam Kumaran: the AI services. And then we have the combined one. I think we’ll probably make some text
49 00:03:57.740 ⇒ 00:04:01.222 Uttam Kumaran: changes there and then. I think the
50 00:04:02.510 ⇒ 00:04:08.009 Uttam Kumaran: I think we’ll probably also make a 1 page that’s just about pricing
51 00:04:08.922 ⇒ 00:04:11.599 Uttam Kumaran: that’ll include all of our pricing information
52 00:04:12.178 ⇒ 00:04:26.890 Uttam Kumaran: and then so what we’ll do in kind of the order will be like, we’ll we’ll do the decks and the pages, and then, once we’re happy with that and all the copy I think we have, we can. We should go basically redesign services to include all of that
53 00:04:27.763 ⇒ 00:04:33.590 Uttam Kumaran: and then, finally, we can talk about like, how do we include this stuff on the homepage?
54 00:04:35.180 ⇒ 00:04:40.485 Uttam Kumaran: So that’ll be like the order of operations. Basically, I want to do the stuff that requires no
55 00:04:41.110 ⇒ 00:04:47.400 Uttam Kumaran: like web flow stuff. 1st finalize. Make sure we’re happy with all the copy, and then
56 00:04:47.830 ⇒ 00:04:52.680 Uttam Kumaran: work on the the stuff for the website.
57 00:04:54.820 ⇒ 00:04:59.440 Anne: But yeah, yeah, maybe if if you can just also
58 00:04:59.620 ⇒ 00:05:06.250 Anne: add it in documents, then I’ll figure out how I will design the one pager.
59 00:05:06.898 ⇒ 00:05:08.809 Anne: Then I will send it back to you.
60 00:05:09.290 ⇒ 00:05:15.880 Uttam Kumaran: Okay? Great, yeah, we should. I mean, I’m hoping I would say we’re probably 60% done.
61 00:05:17.790 ⇒ 00:05:27.170 Uttam Kumaran: so it hopefully, it’s ready for next week. The nice thing is, we’ve been using all the sows for folks, and we’ve been spending a lot of time talking about pricing
62 00:05:27.786 ⇒ 00:05:32.009 Uttam Kumaran: so I think we should be ready next week.
63 00:05:35.338 ⇒ 00:05:40.910 Anne: Yep, yep, also. Maybe we can also update the notion. After that.
64 00:05:42.160 ⇒ 00:05:45.139 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, so we’re starting to do it all in ocean, basically.
65 00:05:45.950 ⇒ 00:05:48.543 Anne: Social services, and then
66 00:05:49.580 ⇒ 00:05:54.099 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I think, for in January we can, we’ll talk about the backlog for design.
67 00:05:56.410 ⇒ 00:05:57.839 Uttam Kumaran: But yeah, that’s perfect.
68 00:06:01.470 ⇒ 00:06:03.740 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. Great. Yeah.
69 00:06:04.470 ⇒ 00:06:16.990 Nicolas Sucari: 1 1 thing for design. Maybe we can add to the backlog not a priority right now. Obviously. But we can create. We can ask and to do some backgrounds for zoom right.
70 00:06:17.840 ⇒ 00:06:23.350 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, we should. I think it’s similar to the wallpaper work. But we can plan out what we want. There.
71 00:06:24.195 ⇒ 00:06:27.020 Anne: Yup! Yup! Yup! Yup! Yup I was curious.
72 00:06:27.020 ⇒ 00:06:30.599 Uttam Kumaran: Is there something particular like Nico we want to have on the background.
73 00:06:31.450 ⇒ 00:06:35.350 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t. I mean, we should have like Brainforge logo, or
74 00:06:35.490 ⇒ 00:06:43.659 Nicolas Sucari: something that says brain porch. But then, I don’t know. We can like we can replicate like an office or something like that if you want.
75 00:06:44.010 ⇒ 00:06:49.410 Nicolas Sucari: and then I’ll like just to have something more with with brain forging it. I think
76 00:06:49.730 ⇒ 00:06:54.779 Nicolas Sucari: when you go to sales calls, or anything like something that just says Brain Farge, that will be.
77 00:06:55.950 ⇒ 00:07:02.399 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. Actually, we actually went to. We went to. I went to a sales call with the background from yesterday. And it was really funny. Everybody liked it so.
78 00:07:02.750 ⇒ 00:07:03.389 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, I mean.
79 00:07:03.390 ⇒ 00:07:05.738 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna leave it for now.
80 00:07:06.600 ⇒ 00:07:11.907 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, maybe we should think about it. I think that could be a fun project like we have, basically, we should have
81 00:07:12.550 ⇒ 00:07:16.510 Nicolas Sucari: Maybe a like a few options, and maybe one seasonal one.
82 00:07:17.230 ⇒ 00:07:18.100 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah.
83 00:07:18.100 ⇒ 00:07:22.370 Uttam Kumaran: That way. It’s helpful. Because sometimes I’m I’m in an area where maybe I just want to use a background
84 00:07:22.728 ⇒ 00:07:28.690 Uttam Kumaran: and I would rather just use our own design background. So yeah, maybe I’ll add I’ll add some to the backlog for that.
85 00:07:29.790 ⇒ 00:07:32.120 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, it shouldn’t be a priority, obviously. But I think
86 00:07:33.000 ⇒ 00:07:38.439 Nicolas Sucari: sometimes when you go to sales calls like, you have that background like it’s, it’s good. I think.
87 00:07:39.570 ⇒ 00:07:41.430 Uttam Kumaran: No, it makes a lot of sense actually.
88 00:07:43.430 ⇒ 00:07:43.900 Nicolas Sucari: Okay.
89 00:07:44.260 ⇒ 00:07:49.270 Anne: Okay, thank you. Got it. I will. Add it in my list.
90 00:07:50.310 ⇒ 00:07:55.850 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. And I think the other thing I’m starting to work on is in in documents and notion.
91 00:07:55.960 ⇒ 00:08:01.610 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna start to link to each of the key documents in Figma.
92 00:08:03.470 ⇒ 00:08:06.700 Uttam Kumaran: I I don’t think I need help with this
93 00:08:06.850 ⇒ 00:08:15.049 Uttam Kumaran: at the moment, but I think the only thing is probably I may have some ideas about organization of the sales
94 00:08:15.160 ⇒ 00:08:17.060 Uttam Kumaran: assets. File
95 00:08:18.016 ⇒ 00:08:35.860 Uttam Kumaran: but that’s probably it. For now, basically, documentation is gonna hold all of the links to all the documents. They’ll be tagged as sales documents, so that people can easily find, like where deck templates, where sow templates, where one pager templates, things like that.
96 00:08:37.850 ⇒ 00:08:45.969 Anne: Oh, okay, okay, maybe if Marian can do it, maybe I can help with that. Basically.
97 00:08:45.970 ⇒ 00:08:49.949 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, maybe I’ll take. I’ll take a pass at it, and then I’ll I’ll ask her to review.
98 00:08:50.660 ⇒ 00:08:53.280 Anne: Okay. Okay, no worries. Thank you.
99 00:08:58.360 ⇒ 00:09:04.159 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, great if nothing else. Then I guess I’ll chat with everyone later on. Slack.
100 00:09:05.240 ⇒ 00:09:05.665 Ryan Brosas: Yeah.
101 00:09:07.900 ⇒ 00:09:10.099 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, Ryan, I didn’t know you’re here. Yeah.
102 00:09:10.100 ⇒ 00:09:11.970 Ryan Brosas: Sorry I was late. Sorry
103 00:09:13.070 ⇒ 00:09:29.820 Ryan Brosas: for the content let me share I think. We are good for next week also. I’m just missing out the tool review for relevance. So I think, are we going to post like in the 5, th 25? th
104 00:09:30.820 ⇒ 00:09:35.330 Ryan Brosas: Because that’s going to be our tool review. So.
105 00:09:35.460 ⇒ 00:09:40.359 Ryan Brosas: or do we move? Or, you know, post like on the 25.th
106 00:09:41.290 ⇒ 00:09:55.530 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah, I was going to ask that, like, it is worth to publish like during all next week with them, like just to keep the engagement in in Linkedin, or like. Should we pause some days because people isn’t gonna be like.
107 00:09:55.930 ⇒ 00:09:58.310 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I don’t like.
108 00:09:59.030 ⇒ 00:09:59.929 Nicolas Sucari: I don’t know.
109 00:09:59.930 ⇒ 00:10:08.590 Nicolas Sucari: We’ve been doing a great. We’ve been doing a great work publishing every day, I think, or sending content almost every day, so I don’t wanna like
110 00:10:09.240 ⇒ 00:10:15.480 Nicolas Sucari: That is, that Linkedin don’t rate us the same when we go back if we post. But I don’t know.
111 00:10:16.530 ⇒ 00:10:29.439 Ryan Brosas: Yeah, yeah, I agree with that. So yeah, we can like post on the 25, th because that is really the holiday. I can really like post on 24th and 26.
112 00:10:29.780 ⇒ 00:10:42.299 Ryan Brosas: And yeah, we can, we can continuously post on on those specific dates. But we can skip on 25, th because we can. We can just, you know, post on our social, you know, wishing.
113 00:10:42.700 ⇒ 00:10:44.329 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, let’s do something like that.
114 00:10:45.540 ⇒ 00:10:45.960 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, right?
115 00:10:46.420 ⇒ 00:10:57.499 Uttam Kumaran: Right? I think we should do that. And then we can either move it to the day after, or skip for or push it to next week. But I do think we should still post next week
116 00:10:57.620 ⇒ 00:11:00.799 Uttam Kumaran: a couple of things, because people are gonna be checking.
117 00:11:01.080 ⇒ 00:11:03.910 Uttam Kumaran: People are like addicted to Linkedin. So they’re gonna be checking.
118 00:11:04.650 ⇒ 00:11:09.209 Uttam Kumaran: I think, on Christmas Day I think we should just post like Merry Christmas happy holidays, or something like that.
119 00:11:10.320 ⇒ 00:11:10.685 Ryan Brosas: Yeah.
120 00:11:11.050 ⇒ 00:11:16.730 Nicolas Sucari: Yeah. And and with the screenshot that you took from our meeting yesterday, I think that would be nice.
121 00:11:20.510 ⇒ 00:11:23.030 Nicolas Sucari: like Brainforge team wishes.
122 00:11:23.030 ⇒ 00:11:24.339 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
123 00:11:24.340 ⇒ 00:11:24.970 Nicolas Sucari: Merry Christmas.
124 00:11:24.970 ⇒ 00:11:27.356 Uttam Kumaran: That. Yeah, that’s a good idea.
