- As an account executive, you're responsible for managing client relationships, develop their cold email strategy with us, implement learnings week over week.
- Experience with running cold email campaigns at scale, copywriting, and managing client relationships is a plus but not required.
- No micro management.
- Plenty of room to experiment and test your own ideas.
- We're not looking for a cog in the machine but someone with an bias for action, who is able to think on their feet and work independently.
Hey everyone, Jakob here the creator. As a bootstrapped founder, I'm always looking for emerging trends since I definitely don't have the budget to create demand from scratch. So I built Under the Radar, a simple tool that automatically surfaces interesting new trends.
The raw input comes from hundreds of sources. For example, niche communities like certain subreddits and Hacker News are famous for recognizing trends long before they hit the mainstream. Similarly there are hundreds of awesome newsletters that cover specific niches and do a great job helping their readers stay ahead of the curve. But it's an extremely time-consuming task to keep up with all the chatter. So I wrote a script that automatically parses the conversations going on and extracts the most interesting keywords. These keywords are then enriched using data from Google Trends and the Google Keyword Planner. All rapidly growing keywords then end up in the database (Google Sheets!) where they're manually checked. Curated trends are shown on the site, together with a short explanation.
The backend and frontend code is all written in Python. For the frontend I'm using Flask.
Let me know if you have any questions, and any feedback is much appreciated!
I'm going to set aside an hour every couple of weeks and do it manually. Any automation beyond that would feel a little fake or forced to me, personally.
I don't think that's a good idea. If you set aside some time every few weeks to do that it won't fell good. You will be contacting many people in the little span of time and won't be able to have a conversation with all of them. On the other side, if you have your contact reminders distributed so you have just a couple of them per day, that way you can really care about each and every time you contact a person.
Well, what I had in mind was just to set aside some time to think about friends and contacts and get in touch with people I haven't spoken to in a while, then follow up organically from there.
In fact I just called up two people today to see what was going on in their lives.
Symbolhound was a search engine that doesn't ignore special characters. This means you can easily search for symbols like &, %, and code snippets. Unfortunately it's no longer working.
Is there any alterantive that's still functioning?
