literal hardest role to hire for rn and every ai startup wants someone > chronically online (knows trends) > has taste & can create (new media) > understands ai & technical > can execute with quality (operator) such a small niche of folks who can do this
ive talked to many teams in the past few months who are thinking about this but dont know quite what to call it/have called it everything from brand marketing to comms to storytelling to special projects to content/social 4 high-profile startups in past ~2 weeks have explicitly told me they are stealthily looking to hire for someone in this sort of role these roles are quietly and quickly exploding if your ear is to the ground!!

Drata serves more than 8,500 organizations, including a third of the Cloud 100, and is building toward a future where AI agents handle more of the daily work behind compliance. Reducto makes customer documents usable across those AI workflows, from extracting security questions to writing approved answers back into the original files. Hear from Lior Solomon, VP of Engineering, AI and Data, and Julien Melissas, who leads Drataโ€™s AI Questionnaire Assistance team, on how they put Reducto to work. @DrataHQ case study in the comments ๐Ÿ‘‡

iโ€™ve hosted events that have had anywhere from 30-90% show rate, but this is what helps: > be picky about who you accept - i usually manually check their linkedin or twitter > make the topic of the event super specific and niche. a โ€œbuilders meetupโ€ will have lower show rates than a โ€œcreative technologists experimenting with edm demo nightโ€ > you can add more friction to an event rsvp. ask about their interest, motivations, questions - those whoโ€™d flake will be too lazy to even rsvp @nikunj throws amazing events!
Replying to @ishaansehgal
When I say people it's 70%+ for me they are often shocked since the average is about 25%. Here are some things that work for me (assume this is a free event and this is an event that has interesting people show up or a speaker that people are genuinely excited about): > it's all proportional to event size. greater than 100 all bets are off, smaller than that you can have some control > be very open about who you are admitting, when and how. who gets priority, and who does not. this may seem controversial or gatekeeping but it just makes it easier for people to opt in > one week before the event i send a screenshot of the partiful/luma of the people that are waiting (if they are). make it easy for them to cancel then. > 3 days before the event, i tend to ask them a thoughtful question on what they are hoping to achieve from the event and use it as a nudge to discover if they'll join or not. most people cancel 48 hours out, and so this one is important. > 24 hours the event, i send a handful of people an option to invite a +1 if they like as a way to still meet event capacity. this allows to buffer for the last minute cancellations that eventually happen > day of the event i send them a full run of show including times they can show up IF they are late, which some people are almost all the time. a lot of people realize they are going to be late and don't end up showing at all, this allows them to get an opportunity to be late and still show up. Hope this helps!

Technical moats are mostly over at this point. If youโ€™re building something that is meant to be durable, the only moats now are: โ€ข Proprietary data โ€ข Network effects โ€ข A physical component
