12 pm EST / on zoom! We’re talking about lead magnets and how to keep your content authentic using AI. See you there!

To all the Americans in this community, sending you joyous blessings on the 250th anniversary of your independence 🇺🇸🤩 @Logan Skees @Demetrios Venetis @Armando Montealegre @Chris Kirby @

Who can believe how fast this year is going…? Time continues to march on, my friends. There have been some pretty exciting moments for the community over the last quarter. We’ve had seen some new faces ( @Tyler Carr , @Alistair Gordon ) and seen the return of some old ones ( @Michael Heckmeier , @Armando Montealegre , @Demetrios Venetis and others). We’ve done AI workshops, countless coffee hours, and stayed super consistent with our weekly planning sessions. We’ve seen the deployment of an end-to-end strategy execution system (Taskmaster) and a content marketing system (Media Machine) that collapsed the labor required for those functional areas down to a 1/10th of what it used to take. Unreal but true. We’re definitely still a ways out from our stated goal at Venture Map, to deliver the world’s premier self-optimizing enterprise platform — but we’ve made solid progress and our roadmap has me feeling seriously optimistic. Now here’s the thing. For the very few of you who have been here for a while, you know that this Skool community constitutes a type of sandbox for me. A forum for experimentation and **hopefully** market-driven product development. That being said, I believe the purposes of this community would be best served by going through another stage of evolution. You may have seen my “$1000 gift” post a little while back… It was an experiment to gauge our current level of engagement / resonance with the group. To say the response to that post was underwhelming would be an understatement. But more than that, it’s a signal for change. One, among many others, that’s shown me the importance of iterating my approach to growing this group in a direction that genuinely resonates with a specific audience and is of great service to them. Right now, I can’t say that I’ve been successful at that.

Hey everybody, great seeing you all on the call today. Looks like we're going to do a different format for next Friday's call. Where we will run a focused deep dive workshop on how to use AI within a specific application in our business. Your vote matters, and it will directly shape what we focus on next Friday. I’ve included a few options below that were crowd-sourced from the group. Please vote on which topic you’d like us to address next Friday, or share a comment below with your thoughts on what you think we should tackle in our time together!
