1 00:01:01.510 ⇒ 00:01:03.299 Jasmin Multani: Oh, correct? My hair.
2 00:01:03.300 ⇒ 00:01:04.250 Greg Stoutenburg: How’s it going?
3 00:01:04.430 ⇒ 00:01:10.699 Jasmin Multani: Good, it’s windy in LA, so my hair… You didn’t see that.
4 00:01:10.700 ⇒ 00:01:11.670 Greg Stoutenburg: Nope, nope, that’s fine.
5 00:01:12.290 ⇒ 00:01:20.279 Greg Stoutenburg: Okay, I will… I, yep. I was actually just messaging you to say, like, hey, do we need a one-on-one?
6 00:01:20.280 ⇒ 00:01:27.339 Jasmin Multani: Oh, we don’t… yeah, I think we can use catch-up time. I was just gonna ask, like, do you want to run the Element stand-ups?
7 00:01:27.340 ⇒ 00:01:38.300 Greg Stoutenburg: I… I think that’ll be something good for us to talk about. So, Utam is gonna kick us off today, he told me in a message, and then I think that that’s something that,
8 00:01:38.350 ⇒ 00:01:53.469 Greg Stoutenburg: the two of us plus Robert should just sort out. So, where I’ve been CSO on other things, that means… that includes, like, leading comms and that sort of thing. So, but I think when you and Robert came on to the project,
9 00:01:53.470 ⇒ 00:02:01.520 Greg Stoutenburg: you guys mostly led comms, and Garrett was more or less giving updates and, you know, sharing the deck. So, I think that’s something we just… we should just.
10 00:02:01.520 ⇒ 00:02:01.910 Jasmin Multani: Correct.
11 00:02:01.910 ⇒ 00:02:11.500 Greg Stoutenburg: But, yeah, perfectly happy to. I think today it’ll actually be good for me to be a bit of a passenger during the stand-up, just to understand, like, exactly where we’re on on each of the pieces.
12 00:02:11.660 ⇒ 00:02:21.180 Greg Stoutenburg: I am, I’m about to draft a daily update, because I understand that Garrett was sending daily updates, and that Shivani liked that. Does that sound right?
13 00:02:21.560 ⇒ 00:02:33.919 Jasmin Multani: I don’t know if Shivani liked that, but she does expect, like, the Monday and Friday, updates that you were sending, I think she liked that. I think we should ask her, like, are the daily updates overkill?
14 00:02:33.920 ⇒ 00:02:34.740 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, okay.
15 00:02:34.740 ⇒ 00:02:37.129 Jasmin Multani: Yeah, just, I would ask her on that, yeah.
16 00:02:37.130 ⇒ 00:02:45.599 Greg Stoutenburg: Okay, cool. Well then, I’ll… I’ll draft something, maybe I should just wait till after the stand-up. Stand-up’s in a half an hour, right?
17 00:02:45.600 ⇒ 00:02:46.280 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
18 00:02:46.860 ⇒ 00:02:49.690 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, okay. I can wait then.
19 00:02:50.220 ⇒ 00:02:55.839 Greg Stoutenburg: Okay, cool. I mean, really, those are my only thoughts. I’m just kind of skimming through the supply chain discovery doc.
20 00:02:55.840 ⇒ 00:02:56.899 Jasmin Multani: That you shared with me.
21 00:02:56.900 ⇒ 00:02:59.819 Greg Stoutenburg: Make sure I’m caught up there. That’s a lot of stuff.
22 00:02:59.820 ⇒ 00:03:07.700 Jasmin Multani: I’m gonna write a roadmap for that, but to me, today’s priority and play… my priorities today are, like.
23 00:03:08.780 ⇒ 00:03:12.730 Jasmin Multani: The roadmap, the playbooking, and then,
24 00:03:15.390 ⇒ 00:03:18.219 Jasmin Multani: some of the QA work that Oakesh asked.
25 00:03:18.680 ⇒ 00:03:19.339 Greg Stoutenburg: No, okay.
26 00:03:19.340 ⇒ 00:03:22.509 Jasmin Multani: And then I can ask Abbott to be solo for today.
27 00:03:22.870 ⇒ 00:03:28.480 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, okay. I… I tagged you in a thread, on, like, a playbook for…
28 00:03:28.480 ⇒ 00:03:28.930 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
29 00:03:28.930 ⇒ 00:03:33.239 Greg Stoutenburg: And, I mean, my thought was just, like, you know, so I feel like…
30 00:03:33.450 ⇒ 00:03:42.799 Greg Stoutenburg: I got us through the… the initial phases of the Omni thing, and I felt like… I just felt this growing feeling through that, and also when I did it for Eden, like.
31 00:03:43.590 ⇒ 00:03:51.279 Greg Stoutenburg: That the whole… the whole blobby testing part just… it felt sort of rudderless to me. And, like.
32 00:03:52.110 ⇒ 00:03:54.180 Greg Stoutenburg: Because, like, lobby should just work, right? Like, it’s just so…
33 00:03:54.180 ⇒ 00:03:57.859 Jasmin Multani: Yeah, it’s like, if it’s… Going to the data, yeah.
34 00:03:57.860 ⇒ 00:04:03.799 Greg Stoutenburg: But then you find that our clients get surprised with some of the answers, and it’s like.
35 00:04:04.540 ⇒ 00:04:08.260 Greg Stoutenburg: Well, what could we have done initially to prevent that?
36 00:04:08.260 ⇒ 00:04:08.950 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
37 00:04:08.950 ⇒ 00:04:14.870 Greg Stoutenburg: that we didn’t already do, and I don’t know what the answer to that question is, so that’s why I think we should,
38 00:04:15.010 ⇒ 00:04:17.140 Greg Stoutenburg: I guess, yeah, as a cellul.
39 00:04:17.880 ⇒ 00:04:18.510 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
40 00:04:18.519 ⇒ 00:04:20.919 Greg Stoutenburg: But, we can collaborate on that.
41 00:04:21.110 ⇒ 00:04:31.219 Jasmin Multani: Yeah. I’m really curious to see how they ask the questions, too. And, how do we query that? And how do we look at the dashboards for the same answer?
42 00:04:31.250 ⇒ 00:04:37.989 Greg Stoutenburg: Do you know how to do that in Omni? Omni will… Omni has a record of what exactly someone typed in, and you can actually look at exactly
43 00:04:38.720 ⇒ 00:04:39.769 Greg Stoutenburg: Do you know how to do that?
44 00:04:40.250 ⇒ 00:04:43.870 Jasmin Multani: I think I saw that, but I only saw that for, like.
45 00:04:44.780 ⇒ 00:04:48.099 Jasmin Multani: who are the core power users are. Can we go through that?
46 00:04:48.100 ⇒ 00:04:49.759 Greg Stoutenburg: Yep, let’s do it.
47 00:04:52.930 ⇒ 00:04:55.680 Greg Stoutenburg: So… what’s this client called? Oh yeah.
48 00:04:56.390 ⇒ 00:04:56.990 Jasmin Multani: Drink element.
49 00:04:56.990 ⇒ 00:05:00.280 Greg Stoutenburg: This is the part that always gets me. I always want to type in element, and then it’s wrong.
50 00:05:00.280 ⇒ 00:05:01.450 Jasmin Multani: Okay.
51 00:05:02.390 ⇒ 00:05:03.870 Greg Stoutenburg: It’s drink element.
52 00:05:06.170 ⇒ 00:05:14.720 Greg Stoutenburg: Okay, so if we go… analytics… And then, AI.
53 00:05:16.730 ⇒ 00:05:18.539 Greg Stoutenburg: Not intuitive, but whatever.
54 00:05:22.680 ⇒ 00:05:23.900 Greg Stoutenburg: And then you wait.
55 00:05:27.740 ⇒ 00:05:30.839 Greg Stoutenburg: It’ll populate here. Here or here?
56 00:05:31.420 ⇒ 00:05:37.359 Greg Stoutenburg: Let’s see when they load up. Okay, here we go. So, individual AI logs. So, we can… so, Shivani shared that thing
57 00:05:38.370 ⇒ 00:05:44.409 Greg Stoutenburg: Today… Oh yeah, she shared about Pink Lemonade, right? So we can just go here.
58 00:05:45.430 ⇒ 00:05:49.559 Jasmin Multani: Commerce is something we know that… Is not good, right?
59 00:05:50.460 ⇒ 00:05:53.039 Greg Stoutenburg: I mean, my understanding is that e-commerce isn’t finished yet.
60 00:05:53.040 ⇒ 00:05:54.230 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
61 00:05:54.230 ⇒ 00:05:56.110 Greg Stoutenburg: So then that’s what we… what we tell her.
62 00:05:57.340 ⇒ 00:05:59.269 Jasmin Multani: She should know that, too, that’s why I’m…
63 00:05:59.270 ⇒ 00:06:07.589 Greg Stoutenburg: She probably does. Well, I mean, I did this constantly with the retail and wholesale stuff. I’d be like, great, thanks for letting me know, we’ll continue to, you know, we’ll keep it in mind as we iterate.
64 00:06:07.590 ⇒ 00:06:08.060 Jasmin Multani: Okay.
65 00:06:08.060 ⇒ 00:06:15.739 Greg Stoutenburg: That’s it. And then, in the… in the Element Omni feedback channel, Which is probably here somewhere.
66 00:06:17.540 ⇒ 00:06:19.270 Greg Stoutenburg: There.
67 00:06:19.720 ⇒ 00:06:27.360 Greg Stoutenburg: what I was always doing is she would send something in, and then I would just, you know, forward it, make a ticket.
68 00:06:27.490 ⇒ 00:06:34.010 Greg Stoutenburg: And then say that we would regroup, like, at the end of the week.
69 00:06:34.880 ⇒ 00:06:37.450 Greg Stoutenburg: So, let’s see if we can find the last time I did that.
70 00:06:40.380 ⇒ 00:06:43.219 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, okay. Yeah, that’s where I was introducing you.
71 00:06:45.310 ⇒ 00:06:49.720 Greg Stoutenburg: But I would just make this kind of update. Like, you shared this this week, here’s where we’re at.
72 00:06:49.890 ⇒ 00:06:55.579 Greg Stoutenburg: Now, that’s for something that’s already completed. If it’s something that’s in progress, of course all we can say is that it’s in progress.
73 00:06:57.170 ⇒ 00:07:01.499 Jasmin Multani: Okay, and that’s something the SL should be… this is something the SL should be owning, right?
74 00:07:01.810 ⇒ 00:07:03.620 Greg Stoutenburg: I mean, I think…
75 00:07:05.070 ⇒ 00:07:15.520 Greg Stoutenburg: Well, this is one of those things we should align on, right? Because this is one of those funny places where, like, comms and… and, like, ticketed work overlap. I’m happy to monitor this channel, and every time go.
76 00:07:15.580 ⇒ 00:07:33.429 Greg Stoutenburg: you know, thanks, or we’re working on it, or whatever. Send it out, ticket it, and then, and then I guess, you know, you’d handle, like, making sure Abate’s time is budgeted to be doing this, making sure that he’s got a clear direction for what he’s doing here, thus the, you know, idea of a playbook.
77 00:07:33.990 ⇒ 00:07:34.440 Jasmin Multani: I think.
78 00:07:34.440 ⇒ 00:07:38.580 Greg Stoutenburg: I think that’s how it can go, and I think also, I’m grateful to Robert for creating the…
79 00:07:40.590 ⇒ 00:07:49.189 Greg Stoutenburg: OKR spreadsheet, but, I think there’ll just continue to be areas where we just have to go, like, alright, we’ll just… who owns us, you know, and just sort of decide.
80 00:07:49.620 ⇒ 00:07:51.570 Jasmin Multani: Okay. Okay, sounds good.
81 00:07:51.570 ⇒ 00:07:52.720 Greg Stoutenburg: I’m happy with that, anyway.
82 00:07:55.420 ⇒ 00:08:02.349 Jasmin Multani: Yeah, you can feel free to, like, ticket… just, like, tag me in it, build a ticket for me, and then, I can budget time in.
83 00:08:03.300 ⇒ 00:08:03.990 Greg Stoutenburg: Okay.
84 00:08:04.220 ⇒ 00:08:07.509 Greg Stoutenburg: I mean, the answer here has to be yes, right? I mean…
85 00:08:08.360 ⇒ 00:08:10.539 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, it’s in progress, otherwise it wouldn’t.
86 00:08:10.540 ⇒ 00:08:14.090 Jasmin Multani: Amazon, yeah, it literally is Amazon and, like… Yeah.
87 00:08:16.050 ⇒ 00:08:18.220 Jasmin Multani: I think Jason’s aware that we’re…
88 00:08:21.170 ⇒ 00:08:33.429 Jasmin Multani: So this week, I should give her a QA update, on the Amazon stuff and see where we are in the progress of, like, how does that… how does this QA and this Amazon ingestion impact what we see in the data?
89 00:08:33.909 ⇒ 00:08:34.519 Greg Stoutenburg: Yes.
90 00:08:35.480 ⇒ 00:08:36.070 Jasmin Multani: Yeah.
91 00:08:39.780 ⇒ 00:08:42.679 Greg Stoutenburg: Alright, I’m gonna tell her, yes, it’s in progress, and I’ll…
92 00:08:43.980 ⇒ 00:08:47.810 Greg Stoutenburg: share this to… what I like to do when she has pieces of feedback like this.
93 00:08:47.980 ⇒ 00:08:51.489 Greg Stoutenburg: is I’ll just drop it in the client channel, and then I’ll say.
94 00:08:51.770 ⇒ 00:08:57.519 Greg Stoutenburg: Linear, create a ticket, mark as to do, assign to Jasmine.
95 00:08:57.740 ⇒ 00:08:59.170 Jasmin Multani: Yeah, and it looks like.
96 00:08:59.170 ⇒ 00:08:59.580 Greg Stoutenburg: You’ll.
97 00:09:00.780 ⇒ 00:09:04.140 Jasmin Multani: I’ve already created a ticket for this blobby question.
98 00:09:12.000 ⇒ 00:09:14.989 Jasmin Multani: The pink lemonade one, unless you’re looking at a different one.
99 00:09:16.270 ⇒ 00:09:19.549 Greg Stoutenburg: The thing that she had just asked about…
100 00:09:19.550 ⇒ 00:09:20.759 Jasmin Multani: Oh, okay, so maybe she.
101 00:09:20.760 ⇒ 00:09:27.259 Greg Stoutenburg: was… I think I was looking at what source is this pulling from.
102 00:09:28.370 ⇒ 00:09:36.490 Greg Stoutenburg: Unless it’s the same… oh, it’s the same conversation. But it was… it shows up as a new… this is good for us to both know. So, here, look again.
103 00:09:38.780 ⇒ 00:09:42.119 Greg Stoutenburg: So, the one I just created then is going to be a dupe.
104 00:09:42.680 ⇒ 00:09:45.579 Greg Stoutenburg: But here, showing here, it shows two separate prompts.
105 00:09:46.210 ⇒ 00:09:49.710 Greg Stoutenburg: But just click here. What source is this pulling from?
106 00:09:50.280 ⇒ 00:09:51.810 Greg Stoutenburg: That’s her query.
107 00:09:52.090 ⇒ 00:09:53.510 Greg Stoutenburg: It’s coming from the topic.
108 00:09:53.610 ⇒ 00:09:54.940 Greg Stoutenburg: But scroll up.
109 00:09:55.410 ⇒ 00:09:57.249 Greg Stoutenburg: And here’s the pink lemonade question.
110 00:09:57.350 ⇒ 00:10:04.820 Greg Stoutenburg: So, it’s the same conversation, but what’s getting a new URL is the new question.
111 00:10:04.820 ⇒ 00:10:08.629 Jasmin Multani: Okay, okay, okay. Yeah, yeah.
112 00:10:08.630 ⇒ 00:10:10.550 Greg Stoutenburg: I probably knew that and just forgot it.
113 00:10:11.060 ⇒ 00:10:12.000 Jasmin Multani: Okay, yeah.
114 00:10:12.630 ⇒ 00:10:14.249 Jasmin Multani: Easy, easy to double check.
115 00:10:16.280 ⇒ 00:10:21.220 Greg Stoutenburg: Linear. Close that as a duplicate. See if it works.
116 00:10:23.480 ⇒ 00:10:25.280 Greg Stoutenburg: Work. Okay.
117 00:10:25.790 ⇒ 00:10:34.280 Greg Stoutenburg: Cool. Yeah, yeah, so I guess, I mean, I’m just still getting caught up. I’ll be in the stand-up, and we’ll see what Utam has to say.
118 00:10:35.390 ⇒ 00:10:37.139 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, anything else on your end?
119 00:10:37.340 ⇒ 00:10:40.679 Jasmin Multani: Nothing, I just need to do heads-down work today. Yeah.
120 00:10:41.080 ⇒ 00:10:46.240 Jasmin Multani: I’m gonna ask Abbet to be solo today, and then… so I can just… Push things out.
121 00:10:46.240 ⇒ 00:10:46.800 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah.
122 00:10:46.970 ⇒ 00:10:55.300 Greg Stoutenburg: Yeah, and, default is on fire, and he’s been our primary analyst on Default as well. So, Default will keep him busy.
123 00:10:55.850 ⇒ 00:10:56.480 Jasmin Multani: Okay.
124 00:10:56.480 ⇒ 00:10:59.229 Greg Stoutenburg: As well as… as well as whatever you’ve given them from here.
125 00:10:59.560 ⇒ 00:11:04.169 Jasmin Multani: Okay, cool, cool, cool. I’ll do a progress check with him later tonight. Yep.
126 00:11:04.950 ⇒ 00:11:07.699 Greg Stoutenburg: Yep, sounds good. Okay. Alright, see you, Jasmine. Thanks.
127 00:11:07.700 ⇒ 00:11:08.270 Jasmin Multani: Right.
128 00:11:08.270 ⇒ 00:11:08.580 Greg Stoutenburg: Bye.
