0:00

All right, welcome everybody to our CMO round table focused on the pipeline

0:04

problem

0:05

My name is Matt Heinz. I'm the founder president of Heinz Marketing very

0:08

excited to be here today to moderate this amazing panel

0:10

And today we're going to talk about the pipeline problem and specifically the

0:14

challenges that CMO's face when it comes to pipeline generation in

0:18

2024 you think about all the different things that are roadblocks and

0:23

challenges for us today

0:24

We've got changing markets reduced budgets headcount changes who owns the BDRs

0:30

What is AI doing so many different variables and challenges?

0:33

And we've got an amazing panel here to walk us through so I got a bunch of

0:37

questions

0:37

But I first want to make sure we introduce our panel today. We're very excited

0:40

to have

0:40

Jim Sinai is the CMO of vanilla here Jim. Thanks joining us. Happy beer

0:45

We've got more of Rivera CMO of qualified more a thank you for this overall of

0:50

and thank you for doing this event as well

0:52

Thank you, Matt

0:53

Last but not least Oana

0:55

Monalake, how did I do on that name first of all?

0:58

Close enough things now, right?

1:01

So all right you're Oana from now on she is the founder and CEO of

1:04

SQL.io so thank you so much all of you for being here today and

1:08

Jim I think we're gonna start with you

1:10

I'm not gonna call you the elder statesman of this of this panel

1:14

but you already served a very distinguished career as a marketing leader and I

1:18

'm sure the idea of

1:20

Pipeline for marketing has evolved quite a bit in your time in marketing

1:24

overall

1:24

Specifically your time as a marketing leader talk about where it's got where it

1:28

's come from where it is today

1:30

And what are some of the key elements of the change that you've seen that make?

1:33

Pipeline relevant and vital for as a marketing

1:36

Thanks, Matt. I mean

1:40

Jesus as far as I go back my days of marketing the number one metric that we

1:45

always looked at was had was and has been pipeline

1:48

I you know, I grew up in enterprise SaaS and

1:50

all the other measures just

1:53

Were secondary and I think a lot of that is because at the leadership level

1:58

The only thing that matters is are you hitting your numbers and only way to

2:03

know if you have a shot at hitting your numbers is by looking at

2:06

Pipeline and I don't know where I heard this but I love it pipeline is oxygen

2:11

and if you don't have oxygen in the room

2:13

You can't breathe you can't do what you need to do and so

2:17

the

2:19

you know the discipline of pipeline management is really something that I saw

2:24

as a

2:24

a place where marketers can be more strategic and

2:28

Show up with their revenue counterparts in a way that feels more

2:33

in a board level to be frank and

2:36

Candidly it's what we're all playing for we're playing for the for the growth

2:41

and for the win

2:41

And so if you can't speak the language of pipe open pipeline pipe Jen

2:46

Net pipeline pipes velocity all those kind of metrics then you're you're sort

2:51

of left on the outside

2:52

And that's where I feel like we're marketers especially marketing leaders

2:56

Get boxed out of conversations because they don't know how to talk about the

3:00

overall mechanics of creating revenue

3:03

You're really talking about sort of speaking the language of the business and

3:07

the language of sort of go to market

3:09

Not just a language of marketing and not just using our acronyms, but really

3:13

speaking

3:13

I've heard some people say like if my language and my acronyms can match what

3:17

the CFO already uses and understands

3:19

I'm in a much better spot to be perceived as someone who understands and is

3:22

focused on the business

3:23

Yeah, more I want to ask you, you know relative to running this program in the

3:27

conversations you're having

3:28

I mean you're seeing and hearing from a lot of people in different marketing

3:31

functions

3:32

What bubbles up in your head around the biggest?

3:35

Halinges marketers are facing right now in terms of pipeline generation

3:40

Yeah, I mean we've talked to hundreds of marketers over the last few years of

3:44

this program

3:44

And it's a hard time to be a CMO. I think that everybody's saying the same

3:49

thing

3:49

Budgets are smaller teams are smaller

3:53

Targets are higher and how do I efficiently hit my pipeline targets?

3:58

I think everybody's feeling that I feel like there's this hope that things are

4:02

starting to get a little softer things are starting to get a

4:05

Little bit better. We're kind of emerging from what was a pretty hard year and

4:09

a half or two years

4:10

So I think that's the pain everybody's feeling

4:13

Everybody kind of is has emerged from that and is thinking about how do I spend

4:18

efficiently and make sure that I'm being efficient with my investments

4:22

There's been this theme of like I think a gut reaction 18 months ago is to turn

4:27

off a lot of your brand investments and turn off a lot of things

4:30

You couldn't quantify or measure, but that hurts you long-term. So I think

4:33

everybody's trying to figure out the right mix of marketing investments and

4:37

kind of the brand verse demand

4:38

And then another major theme is just focusing on pipeline quality

4:43

Like you can give all the all the first meetings in the world to your sales

4:46

team

4:46

But if they're not materializing if they're not maturing through the through

4:50

the sales cycle

4:51

Then what's the point? So I think how do you hit your targets?

4:55

How do you spend efficiently and smartly and how do you generate that quality

4:59

pipeline to keep your sales team happy?

5:02

I think it's been a trying time for sales and marketing teams

5:05

The tension has probably been a little bit higher just to make sure that

5:09

everybody's satisfied

5:10

But those are the themes in every CMO panel we have every pipeline summit

5:14

discussion we have and I think everybody is kind of looking to each other to

5:17

try and

5:18

Navigate all of those topics. I mean if these are trying times for marketing

5:23

leaders

5:23

And for sales and marketing teams, Oanna founder CEO

5:27

Like you have everything on your shoulders, right?

5:31

And so like you know as as the leader of a business through times like this

5:36

Um, I heard someone that recently described that as chewing glass and as a

5:40

founder myself. I'm like that's pretty damn close

5:42

Um, you know, thanks about the marketing role as part of pipeline generation.

5:49

What's worked for you with sequel and what do you see?

5:52

Marketing's role there relative to all the other groups of the organization

5:55

that have their own role in jelly generating pipeline and rep

5:58

Yeah, I think that in my case, um, I'm I'm the founder and CEO, but at heart. I

6:05

'm also a marketer

6:06

I've been a marketer for 15 years before I started the company

6:09

So I'm somehow uniquely positioned to understand the role of marketing versus

6:14

you know kind of cutting from it

6:15

We actually invested in it, but we we built a different type of investment in

6:20

marketing

6:21

It had to be measurable and still kind of still keep it innovative and exper

6:26

iential

6:26

Um, a big thing for me was obviously when 2023 hit with all the economic

6:32

downturn and all the uncertainties

6:34

I actually um went to my team and I made all the all the um, kind of

6:39

You know impact and results and goals that I usually present to the board

6:44

I made it public my entire company every single person in my company should

6:48

know what we're presenting to the board where we're at

6:51

And it was incredible because every single person in the company has taken

6:55

seriously the investments that we're making and we started working together

6:58

towards a common goal

6:59

Now everybody in the organizations common goal is revenue. Everybody's tied to

7:05

revenue

7:06

Including engineering which is counterintuitive, but we should be building

7:10

features and we should be building product

7:13

That impacts our customers lives that brings more value has brings more revenue

7:17

or makes our customers even more successful

7:19

And the way I structured the sales and marketing team

7:22

I've

7:23

come from a background of marketing and sales being inside out and it was not

7:27

the right way to work

7:28

And now I don't have a sales or a marketing or product marketing team

7:32

I have a go-to market team

7:34

And then out of the go-to market team or main goal is revenue and then there's

7:38

different leaders of projects or initiatives that have

7:42

Subgoals that ultimately working together

7:45

We're reaching our common goal going to the top and that's proven for us to

7:49

work so much better instead of having the specific labels of marketing should

7:53

bring top of funnel

7:54

But marketing should also influence pipeline should also build you know kind of

7:59

give insight into product

8:00

So the transparency bringing you know the board's goals into the team

8:07

And also pointing the entire organization towards common goal with their

8:11

individual

8:12

Kind of success metrics have have been really good for us

8:15

I mean to have someone who understands and has empathy for the marketing role

8:21

to be able to sort of organize that

8:23

I mean I saw we're already see more and some sort of nodding their heads

8:27

thinking about sort of we both work for marketing CEOs

8:31

Yeah, which I think which I think makes our jobs incidentally better because we

8:35

speak the same language

8:37

You know when we when we come to them and say hey, I have an idea that I think

8:41

is going to unlock growth

8:42

They they they listen in and they understand how marketing can be that lover or

8:47

not. They're not pushing back

8:48

Yeah, I think it's unique and it's special and Jim I think back to you

8:52

You know the adjustments you've had to make along the way, especially you know

8:56

Mora kind of talked about just how hard it's been to sell and to market in the

9:00

last year and a half or so and it's it's never easy

9:03

There's always something it's trying to like you know sort of you know

9:07

He's sort of neuter your ability to drive revenue

9:09

But like what what are things that have worked for you and your team in the

9:12

last of six

9:13

12 plus months to make adjustments to be more efficient at driving more

9:17

predictable pipeline in your organization

9:19

Yeah, so I think you know vanilla is a

9:23

Smaller growing organization. It's one of the smaller teams I've led

9:26

But that also has lent a lot of nimbleness to our our sort of our ability to

9:31

react

9:32

We made a decision a very conscious decision to lean into a bunch of brands

9:37

last year

9:37

Uh, and the reason being is that we knew that

9:41

If we wanted people showing up to talk to us

9:44

We wanted them sort of pre-qualified by what our brand stood for and what we

9:49

could do for them

9:49

And so we spent a lot of time making sure our messaging articulated the right

9:54

Problems to write people all the way down to the to the google ads so we weren

9:59

't bringing in inefficient

10:00

inefficient leads into the system

10:04

And you know being trying to like make sure even to the end where our ads were

10:08

explicitly calling out what we did and did not do

10:11

Uh in google and so a lot of that I think helps

10:15

so that the stuff that we do bring in has a higher likelihood of

10:20

Of matriculating into pipeline and ultimately revenue so brands been a huge

10:24

Differentiator and then the other thing nested in there is really making sure

10:29

there's a tight coupling with the bdr's

10:32

And I think that for anyone that works in a sales led

10:35

Uh software business the the bdr army is sort of you have to think of them as

10:41

part of the marketing

10:43

Team and you even if they're not and you have to enroll them in understanding

10:47

the marketing strategy

10:48

Because then they understand how to prioritize what to do and and also how to

10:52

help you understand what messages and what what things are working and not work

10:56

Jim you brought up there towards the end sort of the bdr army and you know,

11:01

yeah, you guys work for sales

11:02

Sometimes works for marketing and you know just back to what you but you were

11:06

sharing what a lot

11:07

I was sharing around this sort of common go-to-market team

11:10

It almost doesn't matter

11:12

Um as if you have sort of continuity around the jobs to be done

11:16

Right and if you have some common understanding of like who needs to do what

11:19

and being in this as

11:20

Have like a team sport more I'd be curious to hear your perspective at all of i

11:25

'd how do you think about that team sport?

11:27

How do you think about marketing's role in conjunction with the broader efforts

11:31

across the organization

11:33

They collectively through you know a body of work or drive

11:38

Yeah, I mean the way it works at qualified is we basically have our marketing

11:42

organization and our sales organization

11:44

But I love your idea of like a full fully aligned go-to-market motion

11:48

We try and achieve that as much as we can even though we kind of have different

11:51

um dotted lines in the org structure

11:53

Our bdr team sits under our revenue team so under our sales organization

11:58

But I see them as an extension of our marketing team our entire sdr bdr team

12:03

and bound and outbound team

12:05

Um, I think one thing that's been really important for us is working towards

12:08

one target when we were first kind of growing up as an organization

12:12

We had too many targets floating around we had to like we had our inbound

12:16

targets and our outbound targets and it simply wasn't working

12:20

We were finding that tension of arguing for who's sourced certain pipeline

12:24

And so we pivoted to do one target and we're really focused on a stage two

12:29

Which to us represents like quality pipeline target across the entire

12:33

organization

12:34

Um, one thing that we also do is we do a pipeline council every single friday

12:38

and the marketing leaders the sales leaders

12:41

And the sdr and bdr's are all there and during that meeting. It's every friday

12:46

at noon rain or shine

12:47

We look over status. How are we progressing? You know quarter to date months to

12:52

date?

12:52

Um

12:53

We look at what's working. We look at what's not working if we're trending

12:57

behind what are our gap plans

12:59

We celebrate the wins so we celebrate like, you know, this sdr had a great play

13:04

this week or this

13:05

Um bdr had a great play this week and so although we're technically separate

13:10

kind of teams the pipeline council

13:13

And um in working towards that one target those have been critical to us

13:17

because you you need both right and especially in this world

13:21

Of account-based marketing it all works together. Hopefully somebody sees an

13:24

advertisement and comes to an event and then opens an outbound email

13:28

And then comes to the website and then converts and like if those two if those

13:31

two teams aren't working together

13:33

Everything breaks. Um, so I think you have to have kind of those functions in

13:38

place to connect the teams

13:39

I'm gonna want to come back to you more if we have time to talk a little about

13:42

sort of change management and sort of

13:44

Culture management is part of that because I think it's one thing

13:47

To have to have a vision for it. It's another thing to have a playbook

13:51

But then to get people to buy into it and really sort of lean into that

13:55

collective mentality

13:56

That's all another thing and is not trivial

13:58

Um, oh and I did want to ask you first the question I feel like it's it's it's

14:03

actually safe to say we're both at the bleeding edge

14:05

And at the very early stages of ai adoption into our go-to-market motions

14:10

It's moving so quickly and there's such a wide disparity

14:14

Of how different companies are incorporating and leveraging would love to hear

14:17

how you are thinking about ai and sort of other

14:20

Advanced technologies and opportunities as part of your pipeline development

14:24

process

14:25

um at sea

14:27

Yeah, ai has been so fascinating and the way I tell my team is that ai will not

14:33

replace anyone in the team

14:35

But if you're but you will replace people who are not using ai

14:38

Because it it's you know, sometimes someone would come to me like, oh, we've

14:42

done all of this like did you use ai?

14:44

And they would feel a little bit scared to say yes

14:46

So that they don't feel like they cheated but actually celebrate the use of ai

14:50

that means you're working smarter

14:52

You're making the most of the technologies and to have a bit of a continuation

14:55

from what mora said is

14:57

Right now buyers are so much more sophisticated, right? They do so much more

15:02

research because shim so much more content

15:04

That's why so hard to put you know a sale or an SQL or an mql in the hands of

15:10

marketing or sales or sdr

15:11

Because chances are that every single person in that go-to-market team has

15:15

touched the you know

15:16

The prospect before they even booked a call with sales

15:19

And we're looking at the entire journey and we're thinking how can we use ai

15:24

from a marketing perspective to either automate or to enhance

15:29

Automation comes where there's a pititive motion

15:33

So are we doing something more than two times three times that can we use ai

15:38

for that?

15:39

For example when customers are asking questions about, you know, things that

15:43

are in our help center articles

15:44

Like can we have a chat on our website that answers those questions so much

15:48

faster

15:48

So it gives them content so much faster. So that's kind of a repeated motion

15:52

where we've

15:53

Put ai to it and it was it was amazing

15:56

And then obviously we'll we'll top up with things where we feel like we can

16:00

kind of get involved in it

16:02

The second thing is elevation

16:04

The one thing that I will never replace

16:07

Like humans with ai is original thought and original content

16:12

One thing that I don't like my team

16:15

See them do is like oh give me a blog post about the importance of ai in the

16:20

world

16:20

I think that original content is so important so that what we do at sequel we

16:26

build

16:26

Original content we have something called again changers where we break experts

16:30

and talk about

16:31

incredible topics and ideas and we use ai to repurpose original content and

16:38

Content into different forms like short video long like long written articles

16:43

short blog both

16:44

um, you know all all kinds of other things so the marketing ai still getting

16:50

elevated and we give more

16:52

Content to you know to our customers and prospects

16:55

Um, but we keep that originality within the team

16:59

Can can I can I just build on this ai story because I think there's there's

17:04

another thread here

17:05

That's really important for pipeline, which is

17:07

Ai I think will make the sdr the abdr jobs a lot easier at least i'm hoping so

17:15

I'm betting on it

17:16

But I think from the content teams they're looking at this and saying how how

17:21

am I going to stand out in a sea of

17:23

Content that's going to get flooded onto the web

17:26

Right and this goes back to

17:29

Uh one investments in brand making sure you have a brand that's differentiated

17:33

and stands or something

17:34

But this is also another opportunity for your bdr is to be more human and to

17:38

really lean into places where bdrs can be human

17:41

So how are you getting them to show up on linked in more?

17:44

How are you getting bdrs to think about creating more video self created video,

17:50

etc

17:50

And I think that um

17:53

You know, it's a scary time because it's going to change a lot of workflows

17:56

But it's also like a time where marketers are sort of more more important than

18:01

ever

18:01

Because it'll be clear the companies that have invested in great marketing

18:04

Won't ever look like they're using ai

18:08

Yeah, I mean, here's what I know guys. I mean like ai is going to make in more

18:12

content faster easy or cheaper

18:14

None of those solve the problems we have in marketing they may make it worse

18:18

Right like your your whether you are the buyer or the you think about your

18:22

buyer

18:23

You they have the same amount of minutes if not fewer in their days to get

18:26

things done and look at tell robot

18:27

Silver robots which might be in our future

18:29

Um, I think providing that humanity really separates out the the great messages

18:35

Uh from others. I know we got just a few minutes left times going by so fast.

18:38

This is so thank you all so much for your insight so far

18:40

Uh more. I did want to get back to you and ask that question around culture

18:43

chain

18:44

Oh, yeah

18:45

Managing the culture

18:47

Across a team that maybe you know historically look let's not pretend that

18:51

there's baggage and scar tissue that didn't exist

18:53

Right from teams fighting for you know for credit over time

18:56

How do you address that but get through it and create a real team mentality

19:01

that we win together?

19:03

Uh moving forward. Yeah, I mean we're we're a little bit of a smaller company

19:07

Like compared to the sales forces or the giants out there

19:10

So I would say changing

19:12

Target's changing kind of how we operate is we can be a little bit more nimble

19:16

like jim said that if you're at a giant giant

19:19

Company or change manager. I've worked at really big companies. It's really

19:22

really hard

19:22

Um, I think the biggest thing is and one thing that our ceo challenges me with

19:27

all the time is

19:28

What would we do if we started the company today?

19:30

Because it's easy sometimes to say we're going to confuse people or how do we

19:35

not scare folks if we're changing too quickly

19:37

And he always challenges me to say

19:40

Start fresh think big if we started the company today. What is the process? We

19:45

would roll out

19:45

We have to adapt or else we'll get left behind

19:49

So I think as a leader you have to have that mentality that changes

19:52

Okay

19:53

And then you have to be willing to bring people along for the ride

19:56

So it's going to take some time for people to kind of acclimate

20:00

Um, we also always say like by the time you're sick of saying it

20:04

People are just getting used to hearing it. So you have to always over

20:08

communicate and internal communications

20:10

Is just as important as external communications when you're running a business

20:14

So constantly communicating and then I think celebrating the folks who are

20:19

adapting and who are changing and who are seeing success with that

20:22

So it is I mentioned our pipeline council earlier. We do these things called

20:26

plays of the week

20:27

And we're like, you know, look at fey she had this awesome interaction. She

20:30

took this new approach

20:31

She generated s2 pipeline. Oh my gosh. It just closed last week or whatever

20:35

So celebrating the the changemakers the folks that are out there doing things

20:40

differently so that their peers want to be like them

20:43

I think that's important, but you always have to be

20:46

I think I didn't anticipate as a marketing leader how much of my attention

20:49

would go into internal communication and not so really

20:52

the team, but it's perfect

20:54

And I was to just add it that I was fine when things aren't going well. It's

20:58

because we haven't communicated internally

21:00

Well, like it's not that we're not doing the marketing. Well, it's we're not

21:04

marketing the marketing well

21:05

And harnessing the power

21:08

Oh, sorry and harnessing the power of the team as well

21:11

It feels like you can create such a big impact into whatever marketing

21:14

initiative that you're that you're running

21:16

Mm-hmm

21:18

Somewhat real to that when I'm a follow-up question for you as sort of like a

21:21

marketer

21:22

But is the is the founder on the on the on the call today?

21:24

um

21:26

Not everywhere the organization thinks they know how to run engineering not

21:29

very ready

21:30

Where like knows that out of they knows how to run a balance sheet and finance

21:33

But everyone the organization thinks they know more and when things are tight

21:36

when things are tough

21:37

Lots of new ideas bubble up which patons is fantastic like that's part of the

21:43

team's spiritment

21:44

But it could be frustrating right for a marketing team that's like we are doing

21:47

our best here

21:48

And we don't need like the you know the the rest of the chickens to contribute

21:52

and think they know our business

21:53

How do you as a founder encourage?

21:55

Ideas innovation creativity across the board yet you your marketing team and

22:01

your marketing leaders clarity

22:03

And the encouragement to do what they know how to do back

22:06

Yes, you are very much spot on on that

22:11

It's a very interesting way to encourage people to still share ideas one of

22:16

One of our greatest marketing ideas came from an engineer who thought it is

22:21

like wouldn't it be great to do this?

22:22

And we're like, yeah, that'd be great

22:24

So everybody can have a great idea even though you're not a marketer

22:27

So we want to foster that culture of sharing interesting ideas

22:31

Some people are seeing it with fresh eyes because we live in it and you know

22:34

It's a little bit harder to see things that are outside of the box

22:38

Yet you don't want the marketing team to be running and building a personal

22:41

idea. There is out there

22:42

Um, we're also similar to what morn Jim were mentioning. We're also a

22:47

Company small enough to be able to move really really fast. So what we do we

22:52

have monthly

22:53

Gold setting obviously we know for the year for the quarter, but we have

22:56

monthly gold setting

22:57

Well, we're also deciding on initiatives that we're focusing on either new

23:01

initiatives or obviously continuing the ones that are strategies

23:04

And we have this idea of experimentation culture

23:07

But nothing is a strategy. So basically a successful experiment becomes a

23:12

strategy

23:12

Nothing is a strategy from the beginning. Even if you're saying i'm gonna be

23:16

running like a webinar strategy or not

23:18

You're gonna be running it an experiment if you've never done it before and

23:21

have certain results from it

23:22

So what we do as a marketing team we sit together and we see what strategies

23:26

are working the best

23:27

We double down on those indeed our great investment

23:30

And we map them out to to revenue and impact on the bestness and then we're

23:34

looking at experiments

23:35

What experiments can we be running this month and then we literally take ideas

23:39

from everyone in the team

23:40

We look at all of those ideas and then we have a framework that we that we

23:44

built every experiment on there is a budget

23:47

There's you know kind of success criteria impact on the bestness and we think

23:51

the one that have the highest impact

23:52

And the way we say it is that

23:55

An experiment cannot fail the only way it fails if you don't know if it worked

23:59

or it did it

24:00

so um this way we

24:03

Nurtured that sharing of ideas from the rest of the team

24:07

But really led it up to the marketing leaders to decide what our strategies and

24:13

what are certain experiments that we want to be running

24:15

Because at the same time while we're cutting a lot of you know budget

24:18

Generally as you know as as a tech industry

24:21

We have to keep innovating we have to invest in new interesting ideas

24:26

Otherwise, we're all going to be doing the same old same old they were not

24:29

going to be growing so

24:30

Keeping that balance um it's been working pretty well for for us in the past

24:35

year

24:35

Yep, we have just a minute left. Jim. I have a final question for you. It's

24:40

super unfair to ask this with a minute

24:41

Brand versus demand. How do you think about the right balance of that moving

24:46

forward?

24:46

I think we've over rotated maybe do a little more of demand in tighter times

24:50

But what's your strategy? What's your recommended way to balance brand the

24:54

demand movie?

24:54

Oh in 30 seconds. Yeah

24:57

Yeah, no, but the short answer is think about them together and holistically

25:01

and honestly like

25:03

If I were to try and go into my linked in spend and say well this this dollar

25:09

is demand dollar and this dollar is demand dollar

25:11

I don't think I could do it

25:13

So I just look at it together as like I need to pay money to create awareness

25:18

and demand together and the the total spend

25:21

Is?

25:23

Translates into both brand awareness traffic growth to the website follower

25:26

growth on linked

25:27

in but also to

25:29

To the bottom line and just trying to pay attention to the what the total spend

25:34

is to

25:35

To pipeline so we don't try and get too granular because otherwise we're just

25:40

going down a rabbit hole

25:41

Oh, you certainly are you absolutely are

25:43

I mean one of those things I tell CFOs all the times like listen

25:45

If you want to spend a lot less on demand to three two years from now spend a

25:49

lot more on brand today

25:50

Because that is what that balance is going to give you a healthier business

25:53

more equity

25:54

More predictable pipeline is going to solve it's going to help make those

25:58

pipeline challenge a little easier with more of that

26:00

investment

26:01

Well, guys, but even spent but even spend I mean all this leave over the even

26:04

spend you think you're spending on demand

26:05

It ends up as brand so like how do you even do that? Yeah, you're right. You're

26:09

right

26:09

Uh, we can spend a whole nother 25 minutes just on this question. We didn't

26:13

even get to

26:14

Uh my concerns about your uh your fantasy baseball team for the year, but we'll

26:18

we'll do that in another time

26:20

This is a longer test comment to see how this looks if the person decides to ramble a bit. So they're rambling and rambling and then they even lorem ipsum.
