1 00:00:44.600 ⇒ 00:00:45.195 Amber Lin: Hello!
2 00:00:46.890 ⇒ 00:00:47.900 Robert Tseng: Hello!
3 00:01:12.070 ⇒ 00:01:12.860 Zoran Selinger: Hello?
4 00:01:13.220 ⇒ 00:01:14.150 Robert Tseng: Hey, Zora.
5 00:01:18.590 ⇒ 00:01:19.650 Zoran Selinger: How are you doing?
6 00:01:20.940 ⇒ 00:01:22.000 Robert Tseng: Doing well.
7 00:01:22.000 ⇒ 00:01:23.509 Zoran Selinger: Darren today? You’re…
8 00:01:23.510 ⇒ 00:01:23.910 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
9 00:01:23.910 ⇒ 00:01:25.799 Zoran Selinger: We were not sleeping well yesterday.
10 00:01:25.800 ⇒ 00:01:33.769 Robert Tseng: Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, today was better. I… I, like, I was so tired. I slept, like, 10 hours, which was good. I have not slept that long in a long time.
11 00:01:34.260 ⇒ 00:01:34.950 Zoran Selinger: Excellent.
12 00:01:34.950 ⇒ 00:01:35.570 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
13 00:01:35.840 ⇒ 00:01:42.230 Robert Tseng: Excellent. I like… I, like, burst a blood vessel in my eye, like, swollen.
14 00:01:42.230 ⇒ 00:01:42.750 Zoran Selinger: Fuck.
15 00:01:43.060 ⇒ 00:01:51.709 Robert Tseng: So, I went to get it checked out yesterday. Yeah, I think the doctor was just like, you should sleep more. And I was like, okay. So…
16 00:01:51.850 ⇒ 00:01:53.630 Robert Tseng: That’s why I’m wearing these faucets.
17 00:02:05.440 ⇒ 00:02:13.550 Robert Tseng: Let me see… there’s definitely more people that should be joining this, but it’s okay.
18 00:02:13.550 ⇒ 00:02:17.190 Zoran Selinger: Hopefully there’s a change in the link, hopefully they’ll see the message, yeah.
19 00:02:17.190 ⇒ 00:02:18.250 Robert Tseng: Yeah…
20 00:02:27.920 ⇒ 00:02:31.580 Robert Tseng: Okay, well, I’m not gonna message people. They’ll join as they join.
21 00:02:31.770 ⇒ 00:02:38.030 Robert Tseng: Okay, well, I guess… Let’s just talk through…
22 00:02:39.450 ⇒ 00:02:43.369 Robert Tseng: Yeah, Amber, we’ll just go through your stuff first, so…
23 00:02:44.800 ⇒ 00:02:51.540 Amber Lin: Cool. Saw your comments, it is still work in progress, but I do think…
24 00:02:51.690 ⇒ 00:02:58.179 Amber Lin: it’s close to the finish line, I just need to have recommendations and make it more readable.
25 00:02:58.330 ⇒ 00:03:05.060 Amber Lin: And for the demand plan, would you like that in a slide, or should I just talk through it with Byron?
26 00:03:06.180 ⇒ 00:03:13.270 Robert Tseng: I… I mean, I… I can… I can drive that part of the conversation. I’ll just reference your Notion doc. It’s fine, yeah.
27 00:03:13.760 ⇒ 00:03:14.980 Robert Tseng: Yeah, so I think that…
28 00:03:14.980 ⇒ 00:03:31.570 Amber Lin: I don’t need to add how to do it, because I only… I’ve only added the drivers I would like to include. I haven’t assessed their feasibility or how we would add them, so once I finish up the other slides, that’s what I will be working on.
29 00:03:31.860 ⇒ 00:03:39.499 Robert Tseng: Yeah, that’s okay. Also, like, if you haven’t built it before, I don’t expect you to know how to do it. I think it’s, like, yeah, just kind of… it was really just translating
30 00:03:39.540 ⇒ 00:03:56.829 Robert Tseng: whatever is in Acosta that we could pull into as potential inputs, I’m gonna basically just tell them, like, this is what we think we can take out of it, and ask him, like, what are some of the other things that they’re… that they built into their plan. I’m expecting them to share maybe some, forecast or demand plan that they used for this year.
31 00:03:56.830 ⇒ 00:03:59.729 Robert Tseng: So, I don’t have to, like, build it up from scratch.
32 00:04:01.250 ⇒ 00:04:05.219 Robert Tseng: But yeah, I think that would be great. And then if it ends up being, like.
33 00:04:05.910 ⇒ 00:04:13.419 Robert Tseng: he wants to go, and we actually have to do some modeling, then, I mean, I am okay with pulling incessim to do that. Like, I don’t feel like you have to do it.
34 00:04:13.790 ⇒ 00:04:18.389 Robert Tseng: Cool. Yeah. Yeah, I also sync with Sesame on the whole plan, so she…
35 00:04:18.399 ⇒ 00:04:21.520 Amber Lin: Does have some context if you need to pull her in.
36 00:04:21.529 ⇒ 00:04:25.669 Robert Tseng: Okay, great. Yeah.
37 00:04:25.949 ⇒ 00:04:30.119 Robert Tseng: So we got that, and then,
38 00:04:31.129 ⇒ 00:04:39.509 Robert Tseng: this decision, we still have to go first set on the discounts, analysis. Yeah, you’re wrapping that up. So, okay, I mean, I think those are all good enough.
39 00:04:41.049 ⇒ 00:04:48.919 Robert Tseng: Yeah, sorry, I haven’t really been monitoring the emails with them. Is there anything, like, in terms of scheduling with grain and all that, is that all good to go?
40 00:04:49.130 ⇒ 00:04:57.160 Amber Lin: Oh, sorry, haven’t pushed that through. Was very occupied yesterday. I will book that. I’ll book that today, unless you want to book that.
41 00:04:58.880 ⇒ 00:05:03.489 Robert Tseng: If you’re on the thread, I mean, you can feel free to just do it, but otherwise, like, I’ll… I can look through it later.
42 00:05:04.230 ⇒ 00:05:08.890 Amber Lin: Can I just put time on your calendar whenever you’re free, is that okay? Yeah.
43 00:05:08.890 ⇒ 00:05:09.209 Robert Tseng: That’s fine.
44 00:05:09.210 ⇒ 00:05:10.589 Amber Lin: Okay, sounds good.
45 00:05:11.590 ⇒ 00:05:12.200 Robert Tseng: Okay.
46 00:05:12.480 ⇒ 00:05:23.080 Robert Tseng: Cool. And then, already synced with Greg on README, so we’re gonna skip that. Yeah, and then… oh, hey Sizum, I know you just joined.
47 00:05:23.660 ⇒ 00:05:31.779 Robert Tseng: Yeah, with Osamia, great. I think, the video looks good, I think the model looks fine. We were looking at… I was looking at it earlier,
48 00:05:32.060 ⇒ 00:05:32.980 Robert Tseng: Recovered.
49 00:05:38.530 ⇒ 00:05:41.719 Robert Tseng: So I think…
50 00:05:43.010 ⇒ 00:05:51.780 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I pointed out, you said some of the, like, some… a couple of the… in the daily summary, there’s a few formulas that are broken.
51 00:05:51.780 ⇒ 00:05:58.340 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So, yeah, those ones are actually not working, because above, inputs are not… Pleased.
52 00:05:59.090 ⇒ 00:06:01.639 Robert Tseng: So, is this on us? We just didn’t put them in? Like…
53 00:06:01.640 ⇒ 00:06:05.199 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah, like, see, like, the empty spots above.
54 00:06:06.320 ⇒ 00:06:07.560 Robert Tseng: Okay.
55 00:06:07.560 ⇒ 00:06:17.429 Sezim Zhenishbekova: the scorecard calculation, but it wasn’t included in the previous data files for the December months. That’s why I have a lot of December months missing.
56 00:06:18.120 ⇒ 00:06:18.850 Robert Tseng: Okay.
57 00:06:18.850 ⇒ 00:06:23.780 Sezim Zhenishbekova: I… I mean, that’s on us to maintain, so, like, it should be updated here, it’s just not here.
58 00:06:24.700 ⇒ 00:06:29.820 Sezim Zhenishbekova: It’s on the, they’ve… One’s 12.
59 00:06:30.270 ⇒ 00:06:31.829 Robert Tseng: Month 12…
60 00:06:31.830 ⇒ 00:06:37.369 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Because I think it’s the manual data that needs to be inserted, it’s not about the sheets, I think.
61 00:06:40.990 ⇒ 00:06:44.239 Robert Tseng: Yeah, sorry, I don’t know, I don’t know what I’m looking at. I’m just trying to see, like.
62 00:06:44.440 ⇒ 00:06:51.389 Robert Tseng: Is this, like, because Casey didn’t update it? And, like, Casey on our team updates all these things, so, like, I might as, like.
63 00:06:51.720 ⇒ 00:06:53.939 Robert Tseng: It’s not, it’s not us, it’s not on them, yeah.
64 00:06:55.360 ⇒ 00:06:58.510 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Let me check. I’ll open the file quickly…
65 00:07:02.390 ⇒ 00:07:10.209 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So, for instance… In order to calculate percentages for…
66 00:07:10.210 ⇒ 00:07:28.470 Sezim Zhenishbekova: percentage revenue change based on the scorecard. I will need, like, for December, for example, we didn’t have comparison to current year revenue based on the DCF calculations, and it’s all taken from documents that’s sent by Insomnia, I think.
67 00:07:31.070 ⇒ 00:07:35.950 Robert Tseng: Okay. Well, like, this is pulling from somewhere, like, where is this being pulled in from, like…
68 00:07:35.950 ⇒ 00:07:42.450 Sezim Zhenishbekova: The percentages are being pulled from, like, Y25…
69 00:07:43.020 ⇒ 00:07:59.770 Sezim Zhenishbekova: It’s from key calculations, total year over year DSF’s current year revenue, and that’s taken from… and in order to calculate that, we need to have information from Insomnia Cookies reports that you have shared, that’s
70 00:07:59.780 ⇒ 00:08:03.900 Sezim Zhenishbekova: that you take and inserted here, so I think it’s a matter of just manually
71 00:08:03.980 ⇒ 00:08:06.190 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Taking it from other places.
72 00:08:06.300 ⇒ 00:08:11.799 Sezim Zhenishbekova: And putting it here, because… I didn’t have a chance to do it.
73 00:08:12.820 ⇒ 00:08:17.509 Robert Tseng: Okay, so, this is gonna kick me out.
74 00:08:27.070 ⇒ 00:08:30.500 Robert Tseng: We get this daily sheet from them every day.
75 00:08:30.500 ⇒ 00:08:31.290 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah.
76 00:08:31.930 ⇒ 00:08:38.990 Robert Tseng: Okay, so I’m gonna say… We’re basically missing data since the 25th.
77 00:08:40.230 ⇒ 00:08:46.750 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah, since 25th of November for, yeah… to calculate.
78 00:08:48.820 ⇒ 00:08:50.780 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Impact scorecard numbers.
79 00:09:02.920 ⇒ 00:09:03.920 Robert Tseng: Ow.
80 00:09:04.980 ⇒ 00:09:06.500 Robert Tseng: I believe…
81 00:09:07.400 ⇒ 00:09:12.039 Robert Tseng: maybe there was actually just a gap. They just didn’t… we just didn’t get anything since the 24th.
82 00:09:13.880 ⇒ 00:09:15.060 Robert Tseng: what changed?
83 00:09:15.170 ⇒ 00:09:15.930 Robert Tseng: Thanks.
84 00:09:16.370 ⇒ 00:09:20.310 Robert Tseng: Okay, whatever. It’s not… it’s not our fault. Okay, that’s fine.
85 00:09:21.890 ⇒ 00:09:34.359 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah, because I noticed, Cassie was filling in other dates, like, for paid media promotional pack. I have all the data for that, but only the Insomnia report site wasn’t there.
86 00:09:36.620 ⇒ 00:09:37.290 Robert Tseng: Okay.
87 00:09:37.400 ⇒ 00:09:45.310 Robert Tseng: Well, that’s fine. We’ll send it as is, and if they need us to backfill, it’s because they just didn’t send us the report. Okay, alright, I understand now. Thanks.
88 00:09:45.980 ⇒ 00:09:47.790 Robert Tseng: Okay.
89 00:09:47.920 ⇒ 00:09:56.820 Robert Tseng: I will go back to this. Alright, so that’s good. Yeah, I want to send out an update today, so we’re gonna… are you okay with me sharing your loom? Like…
90 00:09:57.180 ⇒ 00:09:59.829 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Oh, of course, of course, please feel free.
91 00:09:59.830 ⇒ 00:10:10.520 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I’m gonna… yeah, I’ll send the email out after this call, and then, yeah, I guess, like, Amber, is there anything that we can add to the email, like, other than this for the week?
92 00:10:13.000 ⇒ 00:10:17.799 Robert Tseng: I know you have, like, a weekly summary of, like, last week.
93 00:10:18.030 ⇒ 00:10:22.239 Robert Tseng: I wanted to get this into, like, when I… it would just…
94 00:10:22.540 ⇒ 00:10:26.049 Robert Tseng: I just want to be able to send… I just want to be able to send something to them as well.
95 00:10:30.380 ⇒ 00:10:31.959 Robert Tseng: Did Amber drop during this call?
96 00:10:33.230 ⇒ 00:10:34.810 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah, I think so.
97 00:10:35.770 ⇒ 00:10:37.260 Sezim Zhenishbekova: She’s not here.
98 00:10:37.660 ⇒ 00:10:42.629 Robert Tseng: Okay, that’s fine. I will talk to her later.
99 00:10:44.140 ⇒ 00:10:51.960 Robert Tseng: Alright, so that’s it. I think that’ll close out the week. Should be straightforward there. All right, other things we’ll do…
100 00:10:56.010 ⇒ 00:11:03.329 Robert Tseng: Eden, since only Zoran is here on Eden, or I guess it says until we have. Maybe we’ll just talk through your two.
101 00:11:03.520 ⇒ 00:11:04.420 Robert Tseng: Thanks.
102 00:11:08.120 ⇒ 00:11:12.080 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Perfect. So, yesterday, should I start?
103 00:11:12.080 ⇒ 00:11:12.949 Robert Tseng: Yeah, yeah, go ahead.
104 00:11:13.110 ⇒ 00:11:19.570 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So, yesterday I had Kamali’s, The Milada, Ashwas…
105 00:11:20.050 ⇒ 00:11:34.489 Sezim Zhenishbekova: And then they helped me to set up my Table Blue desktop, because I needed to have JSON files in place, and, like, there were a lot of technical stuff that I needed to set it up, so they helped me with that.
106 00:11:34.490 ⇒ 00:11:45.110 Sezim Zhenishbekova: And Henry was a great help by breaking down tasks in much more detail, so I’m having a call with him at 11, so just he can check on me.
107 00:11:45.360 ⇒ 00:11:57.599 Sezim Zhenishbekova: And also show how Tableau runs in general. So, I think we’re in the right path right now. It’s a matter of just pulling data and setting up my Tableau.
108 00:11:58.060 ⇒ 00:11:59.790 Robert Tseng: Okay, sounds good.
109 00:12:00.400 ⇒ 00:12:05.580 Robert Tseng: I will say that, like, I feel like this is probably overestimated, like.
110 00:12:05.960 ⇒ 00:12:11.009 Robert Tseng: Are you really spending, like, 20 hours on the whole thing? Like, that’s basically what it…
111 00:12:12.330 ⇒ 00:12:13.040 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Mmm.
112 00:12:13.190 ⇒ 00:12:19.920 Sezim Zhenishbekova: I will play by year, I think, because I’m not sure about my productivity level for now.
113 00:12:19.920 ⇒ 00:12:20.670 Robert Tseng: Okay.
114 00:12:20.870 ⇒ 00:12:25.620 Sezim Zhenishbekova: But it’s estimated, so… should I change it based on what I do?
115 00:12:25.810 ⇒ 00:12:27.500 Robert Tseng: Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
116 00:12:29.220 ⇒ 00:12:29.980 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Sounds good.
117 00:12:31.690 ⇒ 00:12:35.750 Robert Tseng: Okay, because, like, I don’t know, something like this, I mean, 7…
118 00:12:35.910 ⇒ 00:12:44.030 Robert Tseng: On the redesign, like, to me, this is, like, you’re spending 7 hours, like, taking as inputs and redesigning the dashboard.
119 00:12:44.220 ⇒ 00:12:49.169 Robert Tseng: Is that… is that what… is that what you’re saying to me? Or, like, is that what you’re telling me?
120 00:12:49.170 ⇒ 00:13:04.299 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So I think this is, like, the complete sheet, but then it’s broken down into smaller, tasks, for example, figuring out where the columns is, and set it up, and then it’s broken down by years. But I… this one was the initial ticket.
121 00:13:04.390 ⇒ 00:13:10.289 Sezim Zhenishbekova: That was created as a general one, and then sub-tickets were created to break it down even in more detail.
122 00:13:10.520 ⇒ 00:13:11.290 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So, yeah.
123 00:13:11.580 ⇒ 00:13:14.289 Robert Tseng: So is this supposed to be the roll-up of the four tickets?
124 00:13:14.290 ⇒ 00:13:15.949 Sezim Zhenishbekova: It’s more… Yeah, yeah. Okay.
125 00:13:18.020 ⇒ 00:13:21.120 Sezim Zhenishbekova: I will… I will adjust it for now.
126 00:13:21.120 ⇒ 00:13:24.380 Robert Tseng: I’m gonna adjust it, so I’m just gonna set it to zero, like, you know.
127 00:13:24.380 ⇒ 00:13:26.160 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah, I think it’s better to, yeah.
128 00:13:26.160 ⇒ 00:13:36.960 Robert Tseng: We don’t do sub-issues anymore, so we’re just… everything should just be a separate ticket. Oh, okay. Yeah, so that’s FYI, so that’s fine, and then… Yeah, I think…
129 00:13:37.900 ⇒ 00:13:46.999 Robert Tseng: you know, pretty much anything that goes beyond 3 story points, I typically ask about, because I’m like, why does it take so long? Obviously, for some reason it does, so, like.
130 00:13:47.120 ⇒ 00:13:53.010 Robert Tseng: This one, sure, like, I could, I could see… You’re, like…
131 00:13:53.750 ⇒ 00:13:56.649 Robert Tseng: Like, what… what exactly is happening here? Like, what.
132 00:13:56.650 ⇒ 00:13:57.099 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Yeah. What is…
133 00:13:57.100 ⇒ 00:14:00.260 Robert Tseng: what is this? Like, why is this one 4 points?
134 00:14:01.470 ⇒ 00:14:12.620 Sezim Zhenishbekova: So, basically, this is Henry’s estimates. He assigned it to me, but I think it might take this much long time, because I’m not as familiar with Tableau.
135 00:14:12.650 ⇒ 00:14:18.200 Robert Tseng: So, like, playing around with it, it also incorporates into it the onboarding aspects.
136 00:14:18.660 ⇒ 00:14:28.750 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Okay. Because it’s taking me some time to run the BigQuery, and then go to Tableau, and just manually doing all this from, like, from zero.
137 00:14:28.750 ⇒ 00:14:34.530 Robert Tseng: Okay, that’s fine. Yeah, I mean, I guess we’ll see what the actual… what the actuals are.
138 00:14:35.710 ⇒ 00:14:36.330 Robert Tseng: Sure.
139 00:14:36.470 ⇒ 00:14:37.440 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Perfect, yep.
140 00:14:37.710 ⇒ 00:14:39.600 Robert Tseng: Okay, Zoran?
141 00:14:42.140 ⇒ 00:14:48.050 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, so, so Meta and the new Catalyst work is under review.
142 00:14:48.200 ⇒ 00:14:54.659 Zoran Selinger: So, Ashwini… Ashwini completed that, so it’s… I think it… we’re waiting for…
143 00:14:54.780 ⇒ 00:15:01.449 Zoran Selinger: a wish to review, so I’m… yeah, I’m just gonna say, to the guys, it’s gonna be early next week.
144 00:15:01.700 ⇒ 00:15:07.960 Zoran Selinger: For those two pieces. Ryan is still getting pressure, but, it is,
145 00:15:08.170 ⇒ 00:15:15.309 Zoran Selinger: I’m… I’m gonna try to get some kind of click numbers from… from… From Affiliate.
146 00:15:15.680 ⇒ 00:15:21.909 Zoran Selinger: If we can get some click numbers to cross-check with our tables, I really want to understand why they’re,
147 00:15:22.310 ⇒ 00:15:24.710 Zoran Selinger: Why they are, complaining.
148 00:15:24.920 ⇒ 00:15:33.110 Zoran Selinger: So we can go into that conversation, a little bit, a little bit wiser. But yeah, I mean.
149 00:15:33.650 ⇒ 00:15:46.350 Zoran Selinger: either way, we shouldn’t push such a… such a big change on Friday. Okay. So, yeah, early next week. I mean, Monday will be… I think Monday will be fine for… for both things.
150 00:15:46.770 ⇒ 00:15:50.110 Zoran Selinger: We’ll be ready for Monday.
151 00:15:50.660 ⇒ 00:15:51.230 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
152 00:15:51.230 ⇒ 00:15:57.120 Zoran Selinger: And, yeah, Affluence, you saw that, created the SOP. I tested.
153 00:15:57.120 ⇒ 00:15:57.610 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
154 00:15:57.610 ⇒ 00:16:11.230 Zoran Selinger: the system as well. It’s actually really simple, and I was just ahead of a new kind of update. They do 6 updates every 6 hours, so I just did that.
155 00:16:11.500 ⇒ 00:16:17.709 Zoran Selinger: Just… I added numbers just before the update, and update really pulled them in.
156 00:16:18.230 ⇒ 00:16:33.489 Zoran Selinger: and costs are now visible, in… those test costs are visible in… in Norbim. So, it’s really that simple. It’s just, whatever you add on the next sync, they get pulled, and they get visible.
157 00:16:33.650 ⇒ 00:16:36.469 Zoran Selinger: In, in the, in the platform immediately.
158 00:16:36.700 ⇒ 00:16:39.460 Zoran Selinger: So that’s… that’s an easy one.
159 00:16:40.030 ⇒ 00:16:48.780 Zoran Selinger: Unfortunately, the granularity of data there is on the campaign level, But, for example, we…
160 00:16:49.190 ⇒ 00:16:55.979 Zoran Selinger: we have our influencers on the medium, not on the UTM campaign, but on the UTM medium.
161 00:16:56.000 ⇒ 00:17:12.290 Zoran Selinger: So if they want granularity in NordBeam, we would need to add, kind of, influencer names in the campaign names. So every influencer would also need to have their own unique thing in the UTM campaign.
162 00:17:13.030 ⇒ 00:17:25.799 Zoran Selinger: I… if that’s not needed in NordBeam, I just said, okay, you can leave it at the campaign level, and that’s fine. But there might be a necessity for them to change how they tag.
163 00:17:26.050 ⇒ 00:17:28.140 Zoran Selinger: If you want granularity there.
164 00:17:29.580 ⇒ 00:17:32.210 Zoran Selinger: Okay. Yeah. So that’s…
165 00:17:32.580 ⇒ 00:17:43.850 Zoran Selinger: that’s where we are. I had a… I had a conversation with Judd yesterday about lifecycle. Honestly, we are…
166 00:17:44.460 ⇒ 00:17:48.290 Zoran Selinger: He still just talks about, about measurement.
167 00:17:48.500 ⇒ 00:17:52.619 Zoran Selinger: We are not at all at the stage where we are talking.
168 00:17:52.620 ⇒ 00:17:53.940 Robert Tseng: What do you mean by measurement?
169 00:17:54.560 ⇒ 00:18:10.690 Zoran Selinger: he still talks about reporting and maybe… maybe defining… I suggested maybe defining different attribution models for his work and all that stuff. He’s only just concerned about how we track this and how we report on this.
170 00:18:10.840 ⇒ 00:18:11.780 Zoran Selinger: And he feels.
171 00:18:11.780 ⇒ 00:18:16.650 Robert Tseng: What more is there for us to do? We have, like, as good of a model as possible, like…
172 00:18:16.980 ⇒ 00:18:19.580 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, I mean, let’s see,
173 00:18:19.930 ⇒ 00:18:39.999 Zoran Selinger: I’m saying… I mean, that’s easy stuff. We’ll… we’ll get… we’ll get that done. He’s looking at the reports that Henry gave him, and we understand, we understand them fine. I’m just thinking about, you know, we might look at, look at his, his traffic a little bit different, because it’s… it is different, right, from…
174 00:18:40.000 ⇒ 00:18:53.249 Zoran Selinger: From the channels that, that… for other channels that we have. But that’s, not here or there. I’m just talking about, you know, getting ideas for different segmentation and… and…
175 00:18:53.250 ⇒ 00:18:57.909 Zoran Selinger: He did not even, he didn’t even think about us.
176 00:18:58.060 ⇒ 00:19:01.340 Zoran Selinger: Kind of being a strategic partner in there.
177 00:19:01.800 ⇒ 00:19:21.139 Zoran Selinger: So that’s what I kind of… that’s what I told him to expect from us as well. It’s not just about, okay, we got this metric, and we’re giving you the metric. We actually want to kind of give you also suggestions and work with you to find new segments and campaigns that you… that we want to do.
178 00:19:21.640 ⇒ 00:19:22.260 Robert Tseng: Yeah.
179 00:19:22.640 ⇒ 00:19:28.569 Zoran Selinger: Yeah, so he was… seemed to me like he was surprised by that, like, he didn’t expect that we would…
180 00:19:28.670 ⇒ 00:19:34.470 Zoran Selinger: Touch that, that… touch that part of his… his job, his work.
181 00:19:35.980 ⇒ 00:19:53.659 Zoran Selinger: So yeah, that’s where we left it. I have a few items to look into. I’m gonna do them on Monday, Tuesday. I still did not create tickets. I still haven’t created tickets for it, but I will. And yeah, that’s… that’s where we are.
182 00:19:54.100 ⇒ 00:19:55.700 Zoran Selinger: Okay. We don’t, yeah.
183 00:19:56.790 ⇒ 00:20:06.259 Robert Tseng: Yeah, so I think, like, shifts that are gonna happen, like, so they want more of your time. Are you… are you able… I mean, I’ll… I’ll tell you…
184 00:20:06.580 ⇒ 00:20:11.820 Robert Tseng: I can’t tell you today. But can you increase to 30, 30 hours a week?
185 00:20:12.390 ⇒ 00:20:30.600 Robert Tseng: I mean, for, like, I know we’re trying to bring you on full-time, but, like, I want to, like, incrementally scale up your time for Ian as well. Like, I mean, you’re, what, like, at 15 to 20? Do you, like, I mean, it’s literally double, like, the amount of time you spent, like, that’s what Mitesh is asking for, like, do you… do you feel like you could do that?
186 00:20:30.600 ⇒ 00:20:31.270 Zoran Selinger: Yes.
187 00:20:31.450 ⇒ 00:20:37.810 Robert Tseng: Alright. And like, okay, I mean, I just want to make sure that there is even enough… I mean, I…
188 00:20:39.730 ⇒ 00:20:59.589 Robert Tseng: I think if you have this line of work with Judd, I think that will increase the hours, and then, you know, just everything marketing-related is gonna end up running… running through you, I think is kind of, like, on… on their… on their side for, anything marketing data related will run… will run through you. Like, I think that’s… that would make sense.
189 00:20:59.590 ⇒ 00:21:00.290 Zoran Selinger: Yeah. Yeah.
190 00:21:00.290 ⇒ 00:21:11.600 Robert Tseng: So, alright, so I think I’m gonna tell them that that’s the adjustment we’re gonna make next week. So that’s that. Like, Zora on your… well, I mean, this is end of cycle, so it’s not fully accurate. I think I should really just look at…
191 00:21:12.010 ⇒ 00:21:16.339 Robert Tseng: I don’t believe this is actually what happened, so we just spent a couple minutes
192 00:21:16.650 ⇒ 00:21:23.420 Robert Tseng: I’m pretty sure Casey is not on this call, and nothing… none of this was done, so… oops.
193 00:21:24.180 ⇒ 00:21:29.290 Robert Tseng: So, I’m gonna literally move everything into next cycle.
194 00:21:29.740 ⇒ 00:21:30.840 Robert Tseng: From him.
195 00:21:30.980 ⇒ 00:21:33.119 Robert Tseng: I don’t believe he did any of this.
196 00:21:34.320 ⇒ 00:21:36.199 Robert Tseng: Maybe this one, sure.
197 00:21:36.400 ⇒ 00:21:38.890 Robert Tseng: This is also… did not get done.
198 00:21:39.490 ⇒ 00:21:44.339 Robert Tseng: Ashwini, this also is next cycle at this point.
199 00:21:44.980 ⇒ 00:21:50.250 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, none of this is really gonna happen.
200 00:21:51.850 ⇒ 00:21:53.060 Robert Tseng: Now…
201 00:22:01.250 ⇒ 00:22:06.230 Robert Tseng: How come none of this is really moving?
202 00:22:08.700 ⇒ 00:22:11.580 Robert Tseng: Okay, yeah, alright, so…
203 00:22:11.810 ⇒ 00:22:18.679 Robert Tseng: I think we landed somewhere close to what we expected. Yeah, so this is PS60.
204 00:22:18.950 ⇒ 00:22:27.120 Robert Tseng: Yeah, so moving forward, Zoran is gonna go up to, like, close to 30, and then I’m gonna have to scale other people down.
205 00:22:29.710 ⇒ 00:22:45.720 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, between, like, Henry and Seism, I think that’s 20. So, Henry’s gonna stay at 10, Sezim’s hours on this client will be 10… capped at 10, and then, the other engineers are all gonna be at… it’s just gonna be 10.
206 00:22:46.310 ⇒ 00:22:48.669 Robert Tseng: 3rd, 10, 10, yeah.
207 00:22:49.040 ⇒ 00:22:51.940 Robert Tseng: That’s, like, roughly what we’re aiming for.
208 00:22:55.830 ⇒ 00:23:04.399 Robert Tseng: Yeah, I mean, Zora may not actually be at 30, might be, like, closer to, like, 25, is what I… I mean, I don’t know, but that’s… that’s generally what I’m… how I… how I’m seeing it.
209 00:23:04.640 ⇒ 00:23:05.230 Zoran Selinger: Yeah.
210 00:23:05.490 ⇒ 00:23:11.510 Robert Tseng: Okay, so just, like, keep that in mind as you guys are planning for your own work, like… Yeah.
211 00:23:11.660 ⇒ 00:23:17.370 Robert Tseng: And eventually, yeah, we’ll make those adjustments. Okay.
212 00:23:18.920 ⇒ 00:23:25.089 Robert Tseng: Yeah, the whole… I don’t understand how we’re spending 25 hours on data engineering work. I just…
213 00:23:25.350 ⇒ 00:23:32.570 Robert Tseng: I mean, Ashwini, I know, has helped a lot, but, like, I think Demolade’s work has mostly been blocked, so, like, it’s not like this is really doing anything.
214 00:23:32.840 ⇒ 00:23:33.370 Robert Tseng: I mean…
215 00:23:33.370 ⇒ 00:23:41.040 Zoran Selinger: I have to say, Ashwini, we were really threw him into deep waters right away.
216 00:23:41.230 ⇒ 00:23:42.130 Robert Tseng: Yeah, yeah.
217 00:23:42.130 ⇒ 00:23:49.259 Zoran Selinger: He was just working on… he’s working on urgent, important tickets at the moment. Yeah.
218 00:23:49.260 ⇒ 00:23:50.640 Robert Tseng: He is here, so basically…
219 00:23:50.640 ⇒ 00:23:54.829 Zoran Selinger: I’ll remember to give him some props next week in the chat.
220 00:23:55.040 ⇒ 00:23:58.150 Robert Tseng: Okay, yeah, we will do that.
221 00:23:58.500 ⇒ 00:24:10.180 Robert Tseng: I’ll shout him out at, like, the team call later today. But yeah, he’s here to, like, take away shot this client, because the way she’s being pulled into too many other clients, so that’s why he’s here. I’m glad he ramped up well, he seems like he’s been a good partner for you.
222 00:24:10.350 ⇒ 00:24:14.650 Robert Tseng: And then Seism is here to, like, replace some of Henry’s hours, so…
223 00:24:16.440 ⇒ 00:24:24.109 Robert Tseng: Yeah, ideally, if Susan could own within finance, and then Henry can just focus on ops, I think we should be okay here.
224 00:24:24.580 ⇒ 00:24:32.680 Robert Tseng: And then anything that Casey’s working on is not really urgent, so… I think that’s kind of… Bit.
225 00:24:33.320 ⇒ 00:24:37.420 Robert Tseng: Okay, cool. I think this is good. Thanks for… thanks for this.
226 00:24:38.310 ⇒ 00:24:45.500 Robert Tseng: All right, I… I think no one else is on this call. Elements is going well. That’s just…
227 00:24:46.070 ⇒ 00:24:47.859 Robert Tseng: Oh, what?
228 00:24:48.870 ⇒ 00:24:56.460 Robert Tseng: Oh, I didn’t have them to cycle. It’s just me and Awash, so no problem on there. And then, yeah, okay, we don’t have to talk about any of the other ones.
229 00:24:58.610 ⇒ 00:25:00.310 Robert Tseng: Alright,
230 00:25:00.530 ⇒ 00:25:10.410 Robert Tseng: Yeah, that’s… any other question… oh, Dave Milate just joined, well, we just kind of wrapped up. Is there anything that I need to address with you?
231 00:25:11.060 ⇒ 00:25:27.280 Demilade Agboola: Not… nothing really. I’m working on Stuart’s, categorization of campaigns, so I’ve been pushing out some GLP-1 campaigns that are non-specific and could convert to either, SEMA or…
232 00:25:27.340 ⇒ 00:25:36.809 Demilade Agboola: TES. Yeah. I’ll just kind of split it between those two, so that the ad spend goes evenly between those two. That’s one of the major things I’m working on.
233 00:25:37.210 ⇒ 00:25:45.900 Robert Tseng: Great. Yeah, aside from, like, the maintenance of, like, the existing pipelines, and I know you’re helping, like, internally, like, answering questions for people, I only really expect, like.
234 00:25:45.900 ⇒ 00:25:57.549 Robert Tseng: one to two new tickets your way, like, per week, because, like, all the marketing stuff is now really through us weaning, right? And then you’re being stretched… you’re… without Urban Stems, you’re… what are the other clients you’re on right now, the Emilate?
235 00:25:57.950 ⇒ 00:26:00.819 Demilade Agboola: So right now, I’m on default. Right.
236 00:26:00.820 ⇒ 00:26:01.530 Robert Tseng: Devon, okay.
237 00:26:01.670 ⇒ 00:26:12.399 Demilade Agboola: Before, Eden, and I’m kind of in the wait for Hydra to fully sign, so that I… because I was, like, that was the product that was on.
238 00:26:12.730 ⇒ 00:26:13.650 Robert Tseng: Yeah…
239 00:26:13.780 ⇒ 00:26:27.579 Robert Tseng: We were expecting Hedra to commit to something bigger. They’re not. I think they’re only doing hourly, so… I mean, that might end up being you still, but I think we’re just gonna end up… we’re gonna have to see. Okay, so…
240 00:26:28.390 ⇒ 00:26:32.800 Robert Tseng: We need to get you… more work.
241 00:26:33.360 ⇒ 00:26:35.139 Robert Tseng: Okay, alright, that’s good to know.
242 00:26:35.770 ⇒ 00:26:37.180 Demilade Agboola: Alright, sounds good.
243 00:26:37.700 ⇒ 00:26:41.609 Robert Tseng: We have… we have Magic Spoon starting soon, so I think you’ll be pulled into that one, so I’m not worried.
244 00:26:42.080 ⇒ 00:26:42.999 Demilade Agboola: Okay, sounds good.
245 00:26:43.000 ⇒ 00:26:43.590 Robert Tseng: Okay.
246 00:26:43.910 ⇒ 00:26:45.490 Robert Tseng: Alright, thanks everyone.
247 00:26:45.840 ⇒ 00:26:46.450 Demilade Agboola: Alright.
248 00:26:46.590 ⇒ 00:26:47.000 Sezim Zhenishbekova: Bye.
