The Exchanges

Every argument clarity score on this site is built from rows on this page. Each question and answer was assessed with names hidden, the host's own answers included, on four things from 1 to 5: directness (does it answer the question asked), coherence (do the ideas follow), precision (concrete details and clear references), compression (says a lot per word). The weighted mix (30/30/25/15) is the exchange score. A person's published score averages their exchange scores on raw tape only, at least 8 of them, shrunk toward the cohort mean. Full method →

Roz Lemieux no published score: no usable exchanges on raw tape, and a fair score needs 8+ record → ← everyone

Every exchange below was scored with names hidden, four dimensions each from 1 to 5. An exchange's score is 0.30·directness + 0.30·coherence + 0.25·precision + 0.15·compression. The published score averages the raw tape exchange scores and shrinks small samples toward the cohort mean, so five great answers can't beat twenty good ones. Produced feed rows count only toward coarse estimates, never toward a full score.

Q What do you mean by that? Like you weren't huge.

A Uh, we were only 11 people when we were acquired. So we really rolled up right into the company. They integrated us very quickly into product management, sales, etc. There was no sense having two people sell when they have, you know, hundreds of sales people. Um, and that just opened up a whole bunch of interesting projects, including now Blackbaud Labs for me to work on. Um, and I think I'll take the opening to say, too, that, uh, you know, in your, in your opener, you say, you know, you've got the stories of people who, You know, became filthy rich or crashed and burned. And my story is really, you know, I think not an uncommon story, which is somewhere in the middle. You know, I'm sort of a, like, relentless entrepreneur. I'm always trying new stuff. My, um, my husband's the same way. I've tried to count. I think between us, we've started 10 plus companies and had four exits. And like, you know, we're not Instagram type wealthy people, but we, you know, we've kind of ruled that.

Q So 8000 a year, and let's just actually jump right to the acquisition. So when did you launch the company?

A So we launched a company in 2012, um, super brief, uh, origin story. We had a fission strategy, which is still, still around, a digital agency working with, uh, mainly progressive campaigns and causes, um, and we actually were at, I want to say our second or third annual staff retreat, because we were, fission's a distributed team, so we'd get together once, once a year, um, and we were having this, we had this, I think, uh, innocent, uh, Idea that agencies have that software is going to be easier, you know, build it once instead of, you know, the hourly slog with crappy margins. Right. So, uh, you know, we had this brainstorming session and it came up there in. Um, And so, and we were at the time vision was kind of ahead of the curve in terms of using social tools.
