So mostly like founders. So people, we can basically act quick and we're looking for the most innovative solution to have an edge. And by entering that market, what I would do is I would eat my own dog food.

So use Lemlist to do sales prospecting. Then when I was in meetings with these founders, they would say, oh, I'm not sure if cold email actually works. So I would say, how the hell are we having this conversation right now? And then they would say through cold emails. And I was like, exactly. So I would close deals in that manner.

I would test different approaches, different industries in my sales prospecting. And every campaign that would work really well, I would write content about it.

So that would help our user understand what's working and what's not.
