I am a fan of story-focused standups, particularly the right to left mode. This makes sure that early attention is given to things that are blocked near the finish line.

This also makes sure that we focus on finishing rather than starting a new work, which happens when the standup is person-focused. Just because a person is free, they pick up a new work so that they can report something in the standup.

This is a playbook that my team compiled based on our experiences with our Product Hunt launch

I am from India and I say "21st of June 2022"

Hey HN,

I'm Vivek, co-founder of Notesally, an AI sales assistant that helps to reduce human errors in the sales process. We wanted to build something that protects salespeople from missing to do important action items that could cost a sale.

The entry point for the user is a Chrome extension. After installing the extension, whenever you open a Linkedin conversation or an email from Gmail, Notesally surfaces the number of action items with a text like "5 potential action items detected by Notesally".

You could then choose to look at the detailed action items in the Notesally web app and add them to Hubspot or Salesforce tasks.

Some data entry actions can also be directly made from the Notesally app. For example, when your chat contains a message "I need 20 licenses", Notesally can set the field with name "Licenses" to 20 for a deal in your CRM, with your confirmation.

We would love to get feedback from the HN community to see how we can improve.

Thanks in advance, Team Notesally

Simple and sweet!

One feedback though: In the "Examples" page, I was expecting to see the websites created using your CMS. However, I see a minimal documentation of markdown. This may be suprising for any developer.

As a daily user of Markdown, I was never aware of MDX. Your post helped me understand what it is :)

I also like your idea of monetizing by "minimum" sponsors. How do you deal with people not wanting to sponsor because they don't want a monthly commitment but are willing to spend a fixed one-time sponsorship?

Also, what tooling do you use to take care of the sponsorships?
