Some of you will remember the Wednesday Night Chats we used to run here and then later on the Discord server. They've been on pause for a while but we're bringing them back with a proper 4 week run, speakers and Q&A, every Wednesday evening.

u/OddAttention3213 has been heading this up and put together a strong lineup. He's also been reaching out to specialists in each area to lead the talks rather than just opening the floor, so the quality should be a step up from the old format.

The schedule:

Week 1 - Getting into Sales & How to Land a Role Breaking in from scratch, what hiring managers actually look for, how people in here got their first seat

Week 2 - Career Arcs / How and Where to Move SDR to AE, AE to leadership, IC vs management, jumping industries, going agency or founder

Week 3 - How to Implement AI Whats actually working in real workflows, prospecting, research, follow up, the tools worth your time and the ones that arent

Week 4 - How to Improve Self diagnosis, finding weak spots, call reviews, win/loss, the stuff that moves the needle once you're already in role

The format is loose, talks of around 7-10 mins, then open Q&A. It doesn't matter if you're an SDR or a VP, come and listen, ask questions, get involved.

If you want to speak on any of the nights, fill out the form below or DM PotatoCut (u/OddAttention3213) on Discord.

First night: May 6th
