🚀 RalphBlaster Goes Live
The ralphblaster.com landing page went live — and someone signed up within two minutes, before anyone was even told it existed. This comes on the heels of a viral tweet that brought in 720 new newsletter subscribers as a byproduct of waitlist signups.
You never know what’s gonna hit.

⚡ Onboarding Win of the Week
One member shared a massive improvement: average onboarding completion time went from 26 hours down to 10–15 minutes, and completion rate jumped from 17% to 27% (and climbing).
The secret? Obsessive customer interviews, written feedback, consultant input, and 20+ shipped improvements. No shortcuts.
🎯 Demo Page Optimization
A member pulled 90 Zoom sales call recordings into NotebookLLM, extracted real customer language, and rewrote their entire demo booking page. They swapped out generic testimonials for the top 3 pain points — in the customer’s own words.
Steal this approach.
📬 Don’t Forget Your Spam Folder
A cautionary tale: an enterprise lead from a major tech company sat in a ticketing system’s spam folder for 6 days. Head of procurement, ready to buy.
Check your spam. Seriously.

New article: From Building to Systems and Marketing — Fresh newsletter post about shifting from building mode to systems and marketing mode. If you’ve been heads-down coding and need to make that transition, give it a read.
