“So we have a network of around 25,000 people who work on our platform who are basically validating all these messages before we send them out.”

“Our prices are lower than all our competitors, generally, but we still try to price higher than we need to, so that we can discount, because people love discounts.”

“In these current economic times, everyone's looking at their budgets, they're slashing, they're cutting their vendors, so the more solutions, the more footprint you have an organization with more solutions, the harder you are to kill, basically.”

“We use our own platform to do that, so for example, we do automatic tagging, so we know, ok, the company has 10,000 tickets, because we're connected to their Zendesk, or they're gorgeous, and we know that we're only doing 10,005 thousand of those tickets, what…”

“It's really, so we don't mind getting a customer, and we know that our pilot-to-paid conversion rate is 80%, so if they have a successful pilot, like, they're gonna be a paying customer, and if they're a paying customer, we're gonna upsell them.”

“One example is a client that, one of our largest clients, we did automatic tagging for them, so they, we ingest all their customer service tickets and they get this dashboard. And so they ask, can you put the tags back into Zendesk? I said, sure. How much are …”

“When there's a new champion, like a new head of customer service, that's an opportunity to upsell. Because we can reposition it, re-explain it. The new person doesn't even know what we were doing before. So we can say, oh, actually, yeah, we were about to star…”
