This is a summary on how to best work with me.
Feedback: If you want feedback on a draft, share me on a Google Doc and make sure I'm an editor. Don’t share long drafts over slack, email, pdf, Docx or doc on Google drive - Google doc where I can just in and edit is preferred.

Feedback: If you want feedback on a presentation, ideally add me to a Google Slides presentation where I'm an editor. It’s inefficient to give feedback on pdf’s, keynotes, or ppt. If you use some other app, send me a pdf (but it’s less ideal than Google slides)
Office hours: The best way to schedule office hours with me is by requesting it on bookface. Please fill out the topic/question when you request office hours. Often I can often answer the question over slack/Whatsapp and you don’t have to wait 4-5 days for office hours.
Office hours: A good office hours has a clear agenda and ideally the primary topic is what is blocking the team from moving faster at any given point. Office hours are usually 30 min so I like to get straight into the problem you are dealing with.
Office hours: If you want feedback on metrics/funnels/conversion/outbound sales, please have your email metrics/amplitude/mixpanel/event tracking etc ready. I love digging into actual data. Without data it’s hard to solve any problems in my experience.
Do you need to ask me in advance about requesting office hours? No. If I think I can help resolve the topic outside of office hours I will email you/slack you before the office hours
Do you need to tell me you just requested office hours? No - I get an automatic email and I send out office hours slots every 3-4 days. The are sent to the email you have registered on bookface
Intros: If I promised to do an intro, email me a 3-6 sentence company blurb about your company and mention at the top of the email who you want me to intro you to. Do this for each of the companies I promised I introduce you to.
Intros: If you want to see if I know people you would like to get in touch with, please add me on linkedin or share me with your google spreadsheet of those you are looking for intros to - make sure i’m an editor to the spreadsheet.
When should I not text/Whatsapp you? Late-nights and weekends if the topic is not super-duper-urgent. Use slack if you are in a recent batch. My Whatsapp inbox fills up fast and non-urgent topics will get bumped below my fold fast and I’m likely to forget about them. Therefor, only text/Whatsapp me about topics I can instantly feedback on.
