48 00:04:33.040 ⇒ 00:04:38.639 Robert Tseng: Yeah, apparently Gamber is in New York right now. She she asked me if I was around. But I will not be while she’s here.

50 00:04:51.740 ⇒ 00:04:53.079 Uttam Kumaran: that’s not a mission
51 00:04:57.100 ⇒ 00:04:58.840 Uttam Kumaran: of.
52 00:04:59.520 ⇒ 00:05:04.740 Uttam Kumaran: But I think at minimum, we’re gonna do some like we’re gonna do some business with them.
53 00:05:05.580 ⇒ 00:05:05.980 Robert Tseng: Okay.
54 00:05:05.980 ⇒ 00:05:06.490 Uttam Kumaran: Good.
55 00:05:07.860 ⇒ 00:05:09.940 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I guess.
56 00:05:10.580 ⇒ 00:05:16.360 Robert Tseng: Well, I mean, I guess what what you described was pretty much what you told me. So I think I think we’re on the same page on how that went.
57 00:05:16.770 ⇒ 00:05:17.410 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
58 00:05:19.870 ⇒ 00:05:24.580 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean his. His agency has been around for like 10 plus years dude like.
59 00:05:25.430 ⇒ 00:05:29.690 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, like, we are growing. We’ve grown much faster. We’re yeah, like.
60 00:05:29.690 ⇒ 00:05:36.799 Robert Tseng: I mean, if he’s at his size 10 years in I mean I mean great that he stayed in the game that long. I mean? This is clearly
61 00:05:37.140 ⇒ 00:05:38.030 Robert Tseng: you clearly.
62 00:05:38.030 ⇒ 00:05:39.780 Uttam Kumaran: That’s what I told him. Yeah, yeah.
63 00:05:39.910 ⇒ 00:05:45.460 Robert Tseng: But it seemed like they got way what they got really big. And then they kind of got smashed and came back.
64 00:05:46.390 ⇒ 00:05:46.800 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
65 00:05:46.800 ⇒ 00:05:47.320 Uttam Kumaran: And.
66 00:05:47.320 ⇒ 00:05:48.810 Robert Tseng: Did he say? Why or how?
67 00:05:49.674 ⇒ 00:05:52.540 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, he just said, like they
68 00:05:52.760 ⇒ 00:05:56.399 Uttam Kumaran: like a lot of companies were like they fired their like.
69 00:05:56.550 ⇒ 00:06:06.749 Uttam Kumaran: Maybe it’s just a couple of big accounts, but they fired a lot of their segment people. They increased their contracts, these guys. And then, after they got out of like Covid stuff, they hired those people back and like, got rid of these guys. I don’t know
70 00:06:06.900 ⇒ 00:06:09.077 Uttam Kumaran: or never know what the truth is, but
71 00:06:09.350 ⇒ 00:06:11.469 Robert Tseng: Yeah, yeah, no. I could see that.
72 00:06:11.670 ⇒ 00:06:21.720 Uttam Kumaran: It also. It is 10 years, and I I would expect them to be be bigger. But these they seem like very, very process driven, which I’m kind of jealous of like. They have a lot of like
73 00:06:22.280 ⇒ 00:06:24.120 Uttam Kumaran: processes to things.
74 00:06:24.960 ⇒ 00:06:29.339 Uttam Kumaran: and he’s like Very. I think he has. He has a good understanding of, like the metrics behind the business.
75 00:06:29.470 ⇒ 00:06:36.289 Uttam Kumaran: So I actually think they like, if we’re to do work with them, it’s actually helpful. There doesn’t seem like, there’s gonna be many like games. So
76 00:06:36.740 ⇒ 00:06:46.979 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, I think it’s fine. I mean, I told him about some of the AI stuff we’re doing. I think the data engineering work is really like, honestly, would be great for us, because it’s more technical.
77 00:06:47.500 ⇒ 00:06:58.559 Uttam Kumaran: And we would we? They basically would try to, he said. We’ll kind of figure out the process, but he’s like I bring you in on the sales side, and then we would sort of try to co-sell together. And then, you guys.
78 00:06:58.560 ⇒ 00:07:01.570 Robert Tseng: Have you be the sales engineer, and then have us do delivery.
79 00:07:02.010 ⇒ 00:07:04.850 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, which I said, I said, it’s a
80 00:07:05.530 ⇒ 00:07:11.430 Uttam Kumaran: yeah, I mean, especially if it’s just if it’s data where I was in data generic. I’m like, send those our way. I would love to do that.
81 00:07:11.790 ⇒ 00:07:12.410 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
82 00:07:13.520 ⇒ 00:07:18.350 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, ideally, out of one or 2 of those. Hopefully, we’d get some snowflake partnership credit. So.
83 00:07:18.960 ⇒ 00:07:25.120 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, yeah, he’s working all with mid market. And then, like, you know, plus accounts. So.
84 00:07:28.170 ⇒ 00:07:30.630 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, they have a lot of big. Yeah.
85 00:07:30.750 ⇒ 00:07:33.029 Uttam Kumaran: think they have a lot of big accounts. So let’s see.
86 00:07:33.440 ⇒ 00:07:34.120 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
87 00:07:35.470 ⇒ 00:07:44.509 Robert Tseng: I don’t think any of the new guys are working with him. They’re all just like they’re like these legacy. After I told these before, like, yeah, early, 2,000 software companies. Yeah.
88 00:07:50.660 ⇒ 00:07:54.089 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. So I wanted to just go through like.
89 00:07:54.090 ⇒ 00:07:56.389 Robert Tseng: Yeah, yeah, let’s do it before you jump on your call.
90 00:07:56.630 ⇒ 00:08:00.979 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. So nit is that that’s not signed yet. Right.
91 00:08:02.190 ⇒ 00:08:14.729 Robert Tseng: No, that is not. They’re not. They’re they’re. I consider them lost like they said that you know what budget they we had like an offsite, and they’re on off side. And they changed their mind pretty much.
92 00:08:15.690 ⇒ 00:08:17.000 Robert Tseng: Yeah, he said.
93 00:08:17.000 ⇒ 00:08:19.319 Robert Tseng: Come back to me in a couple of months. Yeah.

99 00:08:37.939 ⇒ 00:08:41.749 Uttam Kumaran: I basically sent them the retainer thing. I think they’ll go with that. And then we’re good.
100 00:08:44.359 ⇒ 00:08:45.409 Uttam Kumaran: This.
101 00:08:45.759 ⇒ 00:08:59.599 Uttam Kumaran: I’m gonna send a note to the this, this AI proof of concept thing and basically say, like, let me know if this is still a thing, or we should punt it. Blueprint equity. I’ll I’ll review your thing, and and I’ll take it from there. I’ll ask you for an intro.
102 00:09:00.180 ⇒ 00:09:00.830 Robert Tseng: Okay.

107 00:09:15.190 ⇒ 00:09:18.140 Robert Tseng: Oh, I had! I had 2, 1 for almost Friday, one for lead.
108 00:09:18.140 ⇒ 00:09:21.630 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, shit. Okay, all right, then I’ll look at that.
109 00:09:22.605 ⇒ 00:09:25.960 Uttam Kumaran: Can I put leap? Can I put leap on here?
110 00:09:26.110 ⇒ 00:09:31.049 Robert Tseng: Yeah, yeah, I didn’t even add it in. Or I think there is. It’s called skill leap. Yeah, I’ll I’ll bump it up.
111 00:09:33.650 ⇒ 00:09:38.330 Uttam Kumaran: Okay? And then, what is this? What is spark plug? Can I add them on here, too? But that’s already.
112 00:09:38.330 ⇒ 00:09:42.280 Robert Tseng: Yeah, spark spark plug wasn’t even on here. I that was like, Oh.
113 00:09:42.280 ⇒ 00:09:48.210 Uttam Kumaran: I added it to the clients. But let me. I’ll just just put the date. Put it on here, and there’s put the data you you close.
114 00:09:48.930 ⇒ 00:09:49.560 Robert Tseng: Okay.
115 00:09:50.930 ⇒ 00:09:56.180 Uttam Kumaran: And then I’ll I’ll fix the numbers. And then do we need to send like? Do I need to send contract and stuff? Or what was the.
116 00:09:56.830 ⇒ 00:10:03.009 Robert Tseng: No, they’re gonna run that one through, mixed or through upwork, which is fine. It was just more my account, but more.
117 00:10:04.440 ⇒ 00:10:05.940 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, cool
118 00:10:07.510 ⇒ 00:10:13.079 Uttam Kumaran: And then how about anybody? How about hype access? And then the verana.
119 00:10:13.080 ⇒ 00:10:22.420 Robert Tseng: Yeah, hip access. I’m talking, I’m you know, meeting up with her again next week. They’re basically launching their own health clinic. They work with a
120 00:10:25.710 ⇒ 00:10:42.490 Robert Tseng: They work with a medical Emr system. I forgot what it was called it was. It was like a event that I went to, anyway, we hit it off she wants to do she wants. I mean, she’s interested in having us build out like kind of her, her dB, and like all all her her whole data stack, I guess.
121 00:10:42.610 ⇒ 00:10:46.219 Robert Tseng: So. They’re opening. They were gonna open
122 00:10:47.000 ⇒ 00:10:54.899 Robert Tseng: in June, but I think things got delayed. So they’re opening until September. So I think this one’s just gonna move a bit slower, but seems like a good opportunity.
123 00:10:55.420 ⇒ 00:10:56.070 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
124 00:10:56.680 ⇒ 00:10:57.270 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
125 00:10:57.770 ⇒ 00:11:07.700 Robert Tseng: she she has good budget like, has a has a has federal funding. And it’s it’s gonna be a completely different, not really a tech company. So really different type of client.
126 00:11:08.690 ⇒ 00:11:17.520 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, so this is skill leap. Okay. Great Verona.
127 00:11:20.150 ⇒ 00:11:28.450 Robert Tseng: I did meet with her while I was, or I. I chatted with her while I was in Kenya, because she’s she runs like Conservancy out.
128 00:11:28.450 ⇒ 00:11:29.100 Uttam Kumaran: I think we.
129 00:11:29.100 ⇒ 00:11:30.070 Robert Tseng: Nairobi.
130 00:11:30.310 ⇒ 00:11:36.329 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I think I remember I told you that like she priced out. And we’re like, well, maybe we’d still do it because it’d be cool.
131 00:11:36.330 ⇒ 00:11:36.890 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, yeah.
132 00:11:38.710 ⇒ 00:11:45.719 Robert Tseng: yeah, I I didn’t read her message in the past couple of days. I’ll have to figure out what where the update is on that.
133 00:11:46.160 ⇒ 00:11:51.200 Robert Tseng: I think they’re. I think they want to do something, but it’s not. It’s not urgent. So it might happen like later on.
134 00:11:51.910 ⇒ 00:11:52.540 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
135 00:11:53.291 ⇒ 00:11:56.000 Uttam Kumaran: Avid health. Yeah. We have a meeting with him

151 00:12:46.180 ⇒ 00:12:51.149 Uttam Kumaran: He’s like, Hey, we we’re we may fire our AI agency because they suck.
152 00:12:51.300 ⇒ 00:13:03.349 Uttam Kumaran: are they? He thinks they suck, and he’s like, can you explain to me like how you’d build this? And I just whiteboarded like some basic chat thing that he wanted Bill. And I was like, it’s like a 3 week thing to. He’s like, Yeah, we contract with them for 3 weeks. They’ve taken 3 months. I’m like.
153 00:13:03.710 ⇒ 00:13:08.260 Uttam Kumaran: here’s like 5 links and like, here’s how we would build it. You should just go ask over spamming that like
154 00:13:08.840 ⇒ 00:13:20.589 Uttam Kumaran: to send them these things and be like to get their perspective on it. And he’s like, Okay, I’m I’m gonna I’ll be making a decision on firing them next week. If I do, I you have the 1st you have the 1st phone call. I said, okay.
155 00:13:21.250 ⇒ 00:13:29.859 Uttam Kumaran: so to take that one step further, I am actually gonna have cause. I just sat through basically up and tell me what you’re trying to build. Miguel is, gonna build it like a
156 00:13:30.090 ⇒ 00:13:33.350 Uttam Kumaran: thin version of it. And I’m gonna say to them, being spilt, it.
157 00:13:33.690 ⇒ 00:13:34.100 Robert Tseng: I’d be here.
158 00:13:34.100 ⇒ 00:13:34.910 Robert Tseng: So yeah.
159 00:13:35.110 ⇒ 00:13:42.030 Uttam Kumaran: I’m like, basically, as soon as Miguel gets he’s just sick today. So as soon as he gets back I’ll I’m just gonna DM him that.
160 00:13:42.450 ⇒ 00:13:43.600 Uttam Kumaran: So let’s see
161 00:13:44.290 ⇒ 00:13:44.850 Robert Tseng: Okay.
162 00:13:45.950 ⇒ 00:13:53.260 Uttam Kumaran: The other thing is, I have interest from this other guy, Troy Otmer, who is like sort of does these like 3 60 dealer reviews
163 00:13:54.155 ⇒ 00:13:58.510 Uttam Kumaran: and is potentially thinking about integrating something with AI within them.
164 00:13:58.800 ⇒ 00:14:08.490 Uttam Kumaran: This is, I’m not sure whether this is like sort of path partnership. I’m not sure whether he’s gonna I don’t know what I’m so I’m talking to him. This came from that wine event to.
165 00:14:08.690 ⇒ 00:14:17.780 Uttam Kumaran: But he’s like really interested in working with us, so I don’t know. We’ll see Kathy cool homes I was gonna ask you, and then let me. Just I’ll hop and go take this other thing. But who? What can I send Zack right now?
166 00:14:17.990 ⇒ 00:14:18.830 Uttam Kumaran: Just a.
167 00:14:20.680 ⇒ 00:14:25.259 Robert Tseng: I don’t know. It’s been a cold lead. I didn’t hear anything back from the Meredith, so.
168 00:14:26.400 ⇒ 00:14:31.940 Uttam Kumaran: So I just say, like, we hit up Meredith, yeah, you talked to yeah.
169 00:14:32.250 ⇒ 00:14:39.930 Robert Tseng: Yeah, we I mean, Kathy didn’t respond to me. But yeah, I connected with Meredith. We we chatted it back and forth a bit, but she then then it kind of just died.
170 00:14:40.830 ⇒ 00:14:41.440 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
171 00:14:42.120 ⇒ 00:14:42.770 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
172 00:14:43.530 ⇒ 00:14:50.590 Robert Tseng: see if he has another contact. But hey, remember, you introduce us. You have contact there. We talked to Meredith, but didn’t really go anywhere.
173 00:14:51.560 ⇒ 00:14:52.160 Uttam Kumaran: Okay.
174 00:14:52.320 ⇒ 00:14:57.400 Uttam Kumaran: And is there anything on the call on the qualified side that I can move out?
175 00:14:58.720 ⇒ 00:15:04.769 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I’m gonna move some stuff. I mean, I kind of want to hit all the rest that’s on there. One more time.
176 00:15:06.320 ⇒ 00:15:10.419 Uttam Kumaran: Okay, I responded to all the upwork folks that hit me back.
177 00:15:11.040 ⇒ 00:15:12.670 Robert Tseng: Yeah. How’s that going on your side?
178 00:15:13.930 ⇒ 00:15:26.220 Uttam Kumaran: It’s good, I mean, I’m I would say, like I think we need to. I I mean, I feel like I’m glad that we got it all set up. I think you’re right. There’s some more fine tuning that needs to happen like excluding certain types of things like anything wordpress or
179 00:15:26.490 ⇒ 00:15:28.210 Uttam Kumaran: for small shit like that.
180 00:15:28.913 ⇒ 00:15:34.550 Uttam Kumaran: I haven’t checked necessarily. If, like the views on the proposals I’ve sent.
181 00:15:34.920 ⇒ 00:15:37.520 Uttam Kumaran: I can just quickly like glance at that.
182 00:15:37.520 ⇒ 00:15:52.129 Robert Tseng: Well, looks like you’re getting a lot bunch of responses on your on your side like message. Wise. I expect the volume on yours to be higher. But like, maybe, like the ones that I get like, I got 2 more mixed panel responses today. So I’m gonna hop on calls with them today and tomorrow.
183 00:15:53.530 ⇒ 00:15:54.710 Uttam Kumaran: Oh, okay.
184 00:15:55.420 ⇒ 00:16:00.830 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I pretty much in like it seems like a good fit. I’m just gonna jump on a 15 min. Call with them right away.
185 00:16:03.780 ⇒ 00:16:10.680 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I I’m I’m just I. People are looking at the people are.
186 00:16:12.500 ⇒ 00:16:16.530 Uttam Kumaran: yeah. I mean, I’m getting people viewing the profile, viewing the
187 00:16:17.330 ⇒ 00:16:20.880 Uttam Kumaran: the proposals, like even just the ones I submitted 20 min ago.
188 00:16:23.230 ⇒ 00:16:27.729 Uttam Kumaran: People are viewing. So I mean for my profile, like basically completely empty. So.
189 00:16:28.270 ⇒ 00:16:29.680 Robert Tseng: It’s not bad.
190 00:16:30.940 ⇒ 00:16:35.780 Uttam Kumaran: I think I’m just gonna have Ryan keep adding more stuff there like videos and shit like that.
191 00:16:36.150 ⇒ 00:16:36.790 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
192 00:16:39.600 ⇒ 00:16:45.460 Robert Tseng: I think the Intro video would help. And then, just like filling out some more like stuff on your profile.
193 00:16:45.770 ⇒ 00:16:48.019 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah, I’m gonna record some more videos,
194 00:16:50.130 ⇒ 00:16:56.292 Uttam Kumaran: and then, yeah, on Linkedin, some of the Dallas stuff is working. So I may just gonna respond and see if I can meet some folks.
195 00:16:56.530 ⇒ 00:16:57.150 Robert Tseng: Okay.
196 00:17:04.069 ⇒ 00:17:07.929 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah. And like, we’re the only thing I think on on
197 00:17:08.450 ⇒ 00:17:17.749 Uttam Kumaran: On Wednesday or Thursday I may grab time with me. You and Amber and Ryan. Because I think you guys can leverage Ryan like a lot more for posting.
198 00:17:18.630 ⇒ 00:17:19.760 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
199 00:17:20.530 ⇒ 00:17:36.380 Uttam Kumaran: So I think if we just if you just guys have like a little bit. I probably just guys need a little bit more confidence into like what the process is. But basically, I think if you could just stream a consciousness about a topic you’ll edit it and like in a certain voice, and they’ll just give you a draft to sort of look at. I think that’ll remove at least like some of the friction.
200 00:17:36.740 ⇒ 00:17:39.990 Robert Tseng: Yeah, he gave me a draft review. I just I never got back to him.
201 00:17:40.340 ⇒ 00:17:41.090 Uttam Kumaran: Yeah.
202 00:17:41.210 ⇒ 00:17:46.708 Uttam Kumaran: I think I’m just trying to help as much as I can cause my linkedin we’re doing. We’re doing well. And
203 00:17:47.220 ⇒ 00:17:51.180 Uttam Kumaran: but we posted over the weekend, and so the line is starting to smooth out a lot more.
204 00:17:52.940 ⇒ 00:17:58.670 Uttam Kumaran: So I think we’re pretty confident we can hit 7 days now pretty consistently.
205 00:18:00.650 ⇒ 00:18:01.290 Robert Tseng: Nice.
206 00:18:02.600 ⇒ 00:18:05.869 Uttam Kumaran: Okay. I’m gonna hop to talk to sky if you’re still on I’ll just call you back.
207 00:18:06.290 ⇒ 00:18:07.989 Robert Tseng: Okay, sure. Bye.
