Of course we don't actually want you to . You are on our list because we want to impress you and hope you might think of someone you can introduce us to.Â
Whether that be to a business that wants to do deterministic AI across their operations (better than LLMs), or a company thats spending more than $5k / mo on growth and wants to save a median of 54% of their advertising spend, while growing revenue.

October was an exciting month of pushing down on our own growth marketing efforts with the suite of tools that, can for a very low cost, allow us to do some top of funnel brand marketing, and bottom of funel content creation and site optimization, that will lead to real growth outcomes extending our sales channel success beyond just personal networks. And our metrics and attributions suite is in place to rapidly iterate on these campaigns 🔥.
Key Metrics - September MoM
- MRR: $10,500; +3,500
- Paid Contracts: 3; +150%
- Unpaid Trial: 1; unchanged
- Discovery Calls: 9; +113%
- Paid Proposals: 3; +300%
Wins
- Closed Performance Agency Partnership ($3,500 / mo / brand; capped at $10,500 for more than 3 brands) From a lead we've been working for over two years.
- We have sequenced +200 qualified prospects through our automated email and communciations tool. Though having to tamper our expectations, and quarterly goals, against the spam reputation warm up periods.
- Restarted our brand's community facing newsletter at a weekly cadence. Subscribe to Heart&SOL on it's content archive page here.
Challenges
- Shipped so much code we ran out of monthly credits across our AI assisted coding tools with a week period gap until the next token refresh cycle. We pivoted to piloting our tools internally, which led to us successfully executing and setting up internal workflow that we hope to report on in our December update.
- Setting qualified meetings. We can run discovery calls to close all day, but our bottle neck is meetings booked. We are looking to handsomely reward sales partners that help us sell growbot or flobot. The two ways we talk about our Agency Services that our software enables.

We shipped a lot of updates again this month and started dogfooding our product hard. We are getting closer to a self serve offering to anchor against our premium services against as an alternative monetization path. Stay tuned.

- NFA - Market is down overall, privacy and compute centered projects staying relatively strong (because they are decentralized and permissionless).
- This is a technology sector we believe in strongly and have built our platform on (Solana), never pull your entire bag, we are not, but we can't time the market; that's why we always say NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE.

playhaus ASKs/REQUESTs/INTROs
Looking ahead to the holiday filled, remainder of November and early December. Our pipeline is trending to get us close to half of our target. We really need to land some more qualified opportunities, if we are going to hit our sales goals. Fortunately, we have quite a few networking opportunities on the calendar, which is our best channel. With the meeting dead spots, we plan to step harder on the gas development wise, tightening up our product so we can be confident in the robustness of our self serve MVP. With that MVP secured, we will also be negotiating the strategic partnership angle of our business with a long standing customer and really put growbot specifically to the test.
