Why Do We Need AI Lead Generation For Small Business?

AI lead generation is particularly beneficial for small businesses for the following reasons:

1. Cost-Effective Solution: AI lead generation software can be a cost-effective solution for small businesses. It eliminates the need for manual lead generation processes, which can be time-consuming and require additional staff. By automating lead generation tasks, small businesses can save on labor costs while still accessing advanced technology to generate high-quality leads.
2. Time Efficiency: Small businesses often have limited resources and staff. AI lead generation software can streamline the lead generation process, saving time and allowing employees to focus on other critical business activities. It eliminates the need for manual data collection and analysis, freeing up time for more strategic tasks.
3. Targeted Marketing: AI lead generation software can help small businesses identify and target their ideal customers more effectively. By leveraging AI algorithms, businesses can define specific criteria and attributes for their target audience. The software then searches for leads that match those criteria, enabling businesses to create personalized marketing campaigns and messages that resonate with their target market.
4. Improved Lead Quality: AI algorithms can analyze vast amounts of data and identify high-quality leads based on predefined criteria. By filtering and scoring leads based on relevance and potential conversion, AI lead generation software helps small businesses focus their efforts on leads that are more likely to convert into customers. This improves the efficiency of sales and marketing teams by directing their attention to the most promising prospects.
5. Scalability and Growth: AI lead generation software can scale according to the needs of small businesses. As businesses grow and require more leads, the software can handle larger datasets and generate a higher volume of leads. This scalability allows small businesses to expand their customer base and support their growth plans without compromising lead quality or increasing manual effort.
6. Data-Driven Insights: AI lead generation software provides valuable insights and analytics on lead generation campaigns. It offers metrics and performance indicators that help small businesses understand the effectiveness of their strategies and make data-driven decisions. These insights can guide optimization efforts, refine targeting, and allocate resources more effectively to maximize lead generation outcomes.
7. Competitive Advantage: In a competitive market, small businesses need to be agile and efficient in their lead generation efforts. AI lead generation provides small businesses with access to advanced technology and automation, giving them a competitive edge. It allows them to compete with larger enterprises by generating high-quality leads, targeting specific niches, and optimizing their marketing strategies.

She then decided to join the corps out of gratitude and passed the selection after 8 months of training she picked up star breathing after trying Flame breathing but could not master it preferring to make wide swings around her and beheading demons while not getting so close to them.

Broadcast Notes - Ultiworld

• All of the Ultiworld games require payment to watch, except for one game per day, as noted above.
• Ultiworld games are either Standard streams (ie. one game with commentary), or Field Pass, which streams up to four games at once, with commentary switching between each game as things happen.
• Ultiworld packages are $13 for a Full Subscription, $17 for an Event Pack, or $20 for a Plus Subscription. Each package includes access to all Ultiworld games, with the following distinctions:
  The Event Pack and Plus Subscription allow for the Field Pass games to be viewed individually (with natural sound in each). Full Subscribers can still watch the games, there will just be other games being streamed simultaneously on the same screen.
  Event Pack users can rewatch the videos forever, whereas Full and Plus subscribers can only watch for the duration of their subscriptions.
  Note: College Team Pack subscribers may also be able to watch.

Broadcast Notes – ESPN

• Click here to read a comprehensive guide on watching ultimate on ESPN!
• The four semifinals will be on ESPN+, which costs $10 (or $13 when bundled with Disney+ and Hulu). Unlike in previous years with ESPN3, there are no free trials of ESPN+, or complimentary access on college campuses and military bases. (If you're a Verizon customer, you may qualify for free access.) On the plus side (no pun intended), it should be pretty easy to pay and login and watch.
• The two finals will be on ESPNU, which can be viewed on cable TV, various digital TV providers like Youtube TV or Sling, or on bootleg sites. ESPN+ does NOT offer access to ESPNU.
• There is now an international streaming option for those outside the US. It costs $12 and includes the semis and finals. For those in the US who are eyeing this as a method to watch both the semis and finals, it's unclear how rigid the geo-fence is, and if it can be bypassed with a VPN like Hola

Hey Reddit!
I wanted to reach out and get some advice from the experienced folks in this community regarding my career in Salesforce. Currently, I work as an Associate Solution Consultant at Salesforce, with approximately 3.5 years of experience under my belt. Prior to joining Salesforce, I spent 2 years at another consulting firm that was later acquired by Salesforce in 2021. So, officially, I've been with Salesforce for around 1.5 years.
In terms of compensation, I currently make around $74k with a bonus, but without the bonus, it's roughly $69k. While I'm grateful for the opportunity to work at Salesforce, I can't help but feel that I might be underpaid given my experience and skill set.
Throughout my corporate career, I have worked on six different projects. My responsibilities have included various aspects of consulting, such as implementing new features like fields, flows, and integrations (e.g., Conga or Docusign). Additionally, I've been involved in writing test scripts and guiding users through the testing process.
In my current role as a Lead Technical Architect, I've had the most influence on a project so far. I'm responsible for overseeing all Salesforce-related tasks on a government project and managing a platform with approximately 80 users. While I work with Service Cloud, Marketing Cloud, and Digital Experience Cloud, the majority of my focus lies within the Service Cloud domain.
As for certifications, I hold the following: Salesforce Admin Advanced Admin Platform App Builder Service Cloud Consultant Business Analyst Certified Scrum Master from Scrum Alliance
Currently, I'm working on obtaining the Marketing Email Specialist and Digital Experience Consultant certifications. I reside in Ohio, and I can't help but wonder if I'm undervalued and whether there are better opportunities out there for me. I've considered exploring other consultancies like Shalom or Accenture, or perhaps even boutique firms, where I might find a remote position that offers better compensation. So, what do you all think? Am I overestimating my worth, or do I have a real shot at finding a more fulfilling role with better pay? I'm open to any advice or insights you may have. Thanks in advance for your help!

Watch ultimate on ESPN channels: A guide

A few times a year ultimate will find its way to an ESPN-channel such as ESPN3, ESPN+, ESPNU, etc. There are usually a number of questions about how to watch ultimate on this platform, so I've compiled a few of the most common and put them below for easy reference.
Definitions

• ESPN3 is an online-only platform where games are streamed via internet or internet devices such as Roku, Fire TV, Apple TV, etc.
• ESPNU and ESPN2 are traditional television channels which can be watched on both TV and online. These channels are often, but not always, included in cable packages.
• ESPN+ is a monthly subscription service that does not require a cable package.

When can ultimate be found on ESPN channels?
The following tournaments sometimes broadcast games on an ESPN channel:

• D-I College Nationals
• Club US Open
• Club Pro Champs
• Club Nationals

Typically, pool play games and early bracket play will be broadcasted by USA Ultimate or a third party such as Ultiworld, while ESPN will cover semifinals and finals.
For the 2023 D-I College Nationals, semifinals will be on ESPN+ and finals on ESPNU.
What's the deal with ESPN+?
Beginning in 2023, ultimate games may be broadcasted on ESPN+, not ESPN3. This is a substantial change for two reasons: (1) It almost certainly requires users to pay to watch, as there are few, if any, free workarounds like with ESPN3. But (2) it is considerably simpler to set up and watch, which some technology-adverse folks may appreciate.

1. Go to Plus.ESPN.com and follow the steps. The cost is $10/month for the standard bundle or $13/month for a bundle including Disney+ and Hulu. There are no free trials for ESPN+.
2. Once logged in and subscribed, simply visit the Schedule page and click on the USA Ultimate stream you'd like to watch.
3. You can watch ESPN+ on a wide variety of devices and apps.

NOTE: ESPN+ does not offer access to ESPNU.
Cost-Saving Methods

• You can save $1 for the month plan through Rakuten, or $12.50 for the annual plan. The annual plan also provides two months for free.
• Verizon customers with a 5G Get More or 5G Play More plan, you may qualify for free access.

How can I watch games on ESPNU or ESPN2?
ESPNU and ESPN2 games are vastly easier (and free) to watch as they are dedicated TV channels. In addition to the methods below for watching ESPN3 games, also try:

• Go to a bar or restaurant and ask a bartendeserver to change the channel. Be patient and tip well.
• Google "free ESPNU" or "free ESPN2 stream" or something similar. Look for sketchy-looking URLs and domain names. I'm serious - there are many sites streaming these channels for free, and they ALL have dodgy URL names. Just close any pop-ups that appear. A couple I recommend are tv247us[dot]com/watch/espn-u/ and bigbro8fan[dot]weebly[dot]com.
• Buy a universal remote and watch on your neighbor's TV through their window. If you say it's frisbee nationals they won't think it's creepy.

I'm an international viewer. How can I watch?
For years watching ultimate from outside the US has ranged from difficult to downright impossible. It's often required a combination of VPNs and free trials, or the service of a user to provide a bootleg stream link. At D-I College Nationals in 2023, USAU has developed a solution, offering a paid package that covers all semifinals, as well as the finals.

• The package is $12. Click here to buy it.
• USAU says there is a geo-fence that prevents users in the US from watching. I personally am not convinced - I'd be curious if it could be watched with a VPN like Hola. If anyone wants to try this, let me know if it works or not.

How can I watch ultimate games online, such as on ESPN3 or ESPNU but online?
If you have a cable package with ESPN3 access, it's super easy:

1. Go to WatchESPN.com or the ESPN section of your app and look under the 'Also Live' section. You may need to click See All and scroll down.
2. You can also try searching directly for 'ultimate' or 'frisbee.'
3. There are also usually direct links to these games. Check the sidebar of this subreddit (you may need to be on old.reddit.com), or look on the USAU Broadcast Schedule page.

If you don't have a cable package with ESPN3 access, there are several workarounds with varying rates of success.
US Residents:

1. First, if you have any cable package, visit WatchESPN.com and log in with your cable provider, just in case. Sometimes ESPN3 is complimentary, or you have an ESPN package that you don't know about.
2. If you have access to a college campus or military base, simply connect to its wifi and visit the site above. ESPN3 is free and included for most colleges and military bases in the US.
   Note: You can often access college campus wifi even if you're not a student. Connect to the Guest wifi or ask at the local visitor center. For military base wifi, a simple workaround is to hop the fence or charge the gate. Free access for a year or more.
   
3. Try a free trial of a service that includes ESPN3 access, such as Sling, Hulu TV, or Youtube TV. Some of these services, like Sling, lets you register for a new free trial on the same account/card if enough time has passed.
   Once you have a trial, use the service platform to browse to the game or website, or visit WatchESPN.com directly and login with your service credentials there.
   
4. If nothing else, try a pirated stream link (see below). Be sure to close any pop-ups.
   

International Residents:

1. Follow Step #3 above but with a couple of extra steps.
   First, you'll likely need a VPN to spoof your location. Hola is free and easy, but Nord, Express, etc are also options. You can also try this non-VPN method.
   Second, you may need a US credit card for the trial. If you don't have one, try Paypal or buy a Google Play gift card and use that.
   
2. Another option is a free trial of ESPN Player. This is an official service provided by ESPN to viewers in Europe, Africa, and the Middle East. See this post for more details. Note that ultimate is not always offered on ESPN Player.
   
3. If all else fails, you may be able to find a pirated stream link. TV247US[dot]com/espn-3 (or tv247[dot]us/espn-3/) and MyGoodStream[dot]pw/espn are good places to start. RareTode (saswink), EatPrayFartSomeMore (EatPrayFart), and Sascha Vogel (ultimatesascha) have streamed on Twitch or Youtube in the past. Or try this suggestion.
   

The event is over. Can I still watch the ESPN games?
ESPN tends to archive games on WatchESPN.com for a few weeks. Just login with whatever login method you have, go to Schedule & Replays, click Replay, then use the filters to find the games. For ESPN+ games, you might need to login to ESPN+ first.
However, some games may simply not be viewable, even if they have direct links that still work. See this thread for details.
USAU will upload the games to Youtube at some point, but it may take X months to get there. They may also quietly upload the games to their Watch page and just not tell anyone. ಠ_ಠ

Every keeps talking about how they have a “winning board” how the hell do you know?
What’s the maximum I can spend so I don’t have to invite NEW users?
How many referrals would it take to win something with only existing users?
Someone make a guide and explain please

How AI Chatbot Helps To Generate Potential Leads?

AI chatbots can play a significant role in generating potential leads for businesses. Here are some ways in which AI chatbots help in lead generation:

1. Lead Qualification: AI chatbots can engage with website visitors or users through conversational interfaces. By asking relevant questions and analyzing user responses, chatbots can qualify leads in real-time. They can gather information about the user's needs, preferences, and demographics, helping businesses understand the potential lead's suitability and relevance.
2. 24/7 Availability: AI chatbots can operate 24/7, providing round-the-clock support and engagement. This availability allows businesses to capture leads and engage with potential customers even outside of regular business hours. Visitors can interact with the chatbot at any time, providing their contact information or expressing interest in products or services.
3. Lead Nurturing: AI chatbots can initiate and maintain conversations with potential leads, guiding them through the sales funnel. By delivering personalized content, answering queries, and offering relevant information, chatbots can nurture leads and provide them with the necessary information to make informed decisions. This helps build trust and keeps leads engaged, increasing the chances of conversion.
4. Automated Qualification and Routing: AI chatbots can automatically qualify leads based on predefined criteria and route them to the appropriate sales or marketing teams. By analyzing user responses and behavior, chatbots can determine the lead's readiness for conversion and direct them to the relevant personnel or resources. This streamlines the lead management process and ensures prompt follow-up with qualified leads.
5. Data Collection and Insights: AI chatbots can collect valuable data during interactions with users. They can capture user preferences, contact details, and other relevant information, providing businesses with insights into potential leads. This data can be used for lead segmentation, personalized marketing campaigns, and overall lead generation strategy optimization.
6. Lead Generation Forms and Surveys: AI chatbots can be designed to act as lead generation forms or interactive surveys. Instead of traditional forms, chatbots can engage users in conversational interactions to collect lead information. This interactive approach makes the lead capture process more engaging and increases the likelihood of users providing their details.
7. Integration with CRM Systems: AI chatbots can integrate with customer relationship management (CRM) systems or lead management tools. This enables seamless transfer of lead information captured by chatbots into the business's existing lead management infrastructure. The integration ensures that leads generated through chatbot interactions are effectively tracked and followed up on.

Hey everyone, hoping you can help guide my decision making.
A couple of years ago I purchase an ender 3v2 as a hobby and have done some minor quality of life mods (metal extruder, CR touch, filament guide) but nothing crazy. I have recently started up a small side gig using the printer and am looking at upgrading hence the question.
I was thinking about getting a S1 pro as it seems like an all round upgrade to my printer. Recently I have seen many people complaining about the ABL not working well which would be annoying to me if this is a common issue. This feature seems to work fine on my v2 so it surprised me that S1 users were experiencing this.
The other printer I am now considering (at twice the price) is a Bambu P1P which seems like a much better printer for my uses (plug and play, just works, good quality etc) but obviously costs much more.
I'm not interested in endless upgrades but am happy with a bit of initial set-up to get it working well. The speed of printing of the P1P would we cool but not a game changer as I work from home for my day job and can just print whenever needed.
I am hoping that some of you can offer advice on the two and which you would recommend is a better fit for me/if the P1P is worth the money. The X1C is too expensive for my needs unfortunately, if the printing business grows I may consider this.

I'm Using Expo managed workflow with EAS Build.
I am using react-native-firebase and followed this guide to get it working: https://rnfirebase.io/auth/phone-auth
I'm encountering an issue that when someone enters their phone number, it opens an external link which adds delay & friction to the sign up process. This link asks user to verify they are not a robot.
There is also a significant delay of ~6 seconds between hitting the next button and this link being opened.
This is extremely bad UX and I have not noticed having to do this with any of the apps that use phone auth on the app store. Is there a way around this?
Screen recording of issue:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U94YSi8I08o8xWfuKZcEHvWcr3YTkEWm/view?usp=sharing
I am using the following code for my implementation:
const confirmation = await auth().signInWithPhoneNumber(+64${phoneNumber});

I'm new to DarkTable from Lightroom and am having trouble finding my way around. I've tried using the DarkTable online guide but it really doesn't help at all. Are there any good resources for learning the platform ? Thanks !

Outbound outreach is hard to perfect but easy to set up.
This is typically a method used only by B2B companies.
But I believe there is potential in B2C as well.
For example, a lot of the voices we feature on Cicero have Linkedin. I’d find the people commenting and liking their Linkedin posts and put them into an outbound sequence.
The key to successful outbound outreach lies in prospecting. Focus on identifying your ideal persona that is most likely to trust you and become a customer.
If you’re unfamiliar with prospecting, I suggest starting with this Sales Prospecting Guide.
Lemlist also has a B2B sales prospecting: strategies, techniques & tools.
Ready to start with outbound outreach?

Here are the Steps:

1: Basic Email Domain Setup

The best practice is to set multiple domains and email addresses to send from. This is to prevent one domain from being marked as spam and ruining your sending capabilities.
Check with mail-tester.com to make sure it’s working correctly.

2: Email Warmup:

Set up an email warmup if your email is new. You can use Lemlist, Reply.io, Instantly.ai, and Smartlead.
Otherwise, your emails will go to spam.

3: Get a lead-generation tool

Signup for Apollo.io. It can fulfill your Prospecting and Outreach needs for free. You can find people, names, and numbers using it. You can filter your heart’s desire to find the right people for you.
There are other tools for this also, like Hunter.io for prospecting and Lemlist or Instantly for sending.

4: Clean your Email list:

Make sure you are only emailing Verified emails. Sending to a bad list is a quick way to get marked as a spammer. You can also use NeverBounce or Bouncer to clean your list.

5: Build your Outreach Sequence:

Be sure to use Email, Linkedin, and consider cold calling too. Your emails and Linkedin messages should follow the framework in the screenshot below.

6: Ensure deliverability is good:

Use an app like GlockApps to see if emails are landing in inboxes. Or use Mail-tester.com again.

7: Follow the best practices below:

• Sequence strategy: Ideally your sequences are 30-60 days long, and include more than 10 steps (multiple email, call, and Linkedin outreach steps)
  
• Consider other platforms you can cold outreach from. Is your audience on Instagram or Twitter? You can use tools like Phantombuster to do cold outreach to them.
  
• Email best practices:
  
  • This (surprising) cold email CTA will help you book A LOT more meetings
  • 15 Effective Cold Email Templates
  • How To Write A Cold Email Which Gets Results w/ 30 Cold Email Examples
• Linkedin best practices:
  
  • Check out this Twitter Thread for advice on some best practices.
  • A Guide to Generating Leads on LinkedIn: Dracula Strategy
• Cold Calling
  
  • 55 Sales Tips & Techniques That Work Like an Absolute Charm in 2020

The KEY is to keep the message short, and not push too much for the sale. Be consultative and focused on solving their pain. Not selling your product or legitimizing your company.
Outreach can be a great way to acquire users if you don’t have thousands to spend on ad campaigns
Try out different strategies, channels, and figure out what works best for you. Double down on it.
Hope it helps 🤙
P.S: I also launched my “No BS Startup Ignition toolkit” on Product Hunt, the biggest FREE launch that I’ve done so far. This is a part of that.

So, I followed the Viva New Vegas guide and that seemed to work fine. Then I got greedy and added a bunch of texture mods.
My PC has an i7-8700K and a RTX 3070. What's happening is that textures of the floor and walls inside buildings pop between all black and several versions of images. Also, some crashing when exiting buildings.
What am I doing wrong here? Help is greatly appreciated!!

Which dramas have you given up on this month? (And why?)
In order to keep this thread from becoming a vortex of negative energy we encourage our users to share their reasons and reviews as to why they dropped certain dramas. This way rather than just hating on dramas without reason this thread can become a constructive place for us all. This serves to both inform others who may be wary of certain aspects of dramas they wish to avoid and others who have watched the dramas in full may be able to encourage users to pick up dramas again in the future if the problems they had were only momentary aspects of the drama.
Please remember that every individual watching goes in with their own life experiences and biases so not everyone will see the drama in the same light or enjoy it in the same way.
Just because someone did not enjoy a drama that you loved is not a slight against you as a person.
When participating in this discussion remember, whilst dramas do not have feelings, human beings do. Be kind to one another.
Please remember to use spoiler tags when discussing major plot points or anything you think should be redacted. If you are using Markdown and not Fancy Pants Editor, the easiest way to create spoiler tags is to use > ! spoiler content ! < without spaces to get spoiler content. For more detailed guidance on spoiler tags and when to use them, check our Spoiler Tags Tutorial.

Who is this for?

This guide is for those seeking to unlock geo-blocked content by Disney+ and Netflix. Or these services are not available in your country. The concept in this guide applies to other streaming services, but we will focus on the aforementioned.

Why not just route all traffic to the VPN?

This guide will use streaming devices (e.g., Apple TV) as the primary target group. Some apps may break due to VPN usage. So, we want to route specific traffic.

Prerequisite:

• UniFi OS 3.0+.
• VPN Provider (I use ProtonVPN).
• DNS setting set to auto for the network you want to manage traffic.
  • This guide will not work with a custom DNS setting. If you prefer to keep a custom DNS, set it at the WAN level.

Configure your VPN client

u/mactelecomnetworks has an easy-to-follow video here - https://youtu.be/tDG3HHFebxE?t=133.
You can create as many VPN clients as you want, but you may be limited to the concurrent VPN connections you pay for. I picked Canada and UK as starters. Pro tip: The Disney+ app includes Hulu content for Canadian users.

1. Go to Settings
2. Teleport & VPN
3. VPN Client > Create VPN Client
4. Give it a Name, Input your VPNs Username and Password, and Upload your VPN Configuration File.
   • Different VPNs will have different configurations. I did not have to modify my ProtonVPN config file. From mactelecomnetworks' video, you'll see that he had to adjust the ExpressVPN file.

Configure Traffic Management

I created two routes, one for Disney+ and one for Netflix.

1. Go to Traffic Management
2. Routes > Create New Route
3. What to Route > Specific Traffic
4. Category - Domain Name
5. Domain Name - Batch Add (see below for each service)
6. Target - Your endpoints. In my case, Apple TVs in the house.
7. Interface - The VPN connection you created earlier.
8. Name - Give it a name (e.g., Route Disney+ to VPN)
9. Reboot your streaming devices if necessary. Give it a whirl!

Resources:

I used these lists to get the domain names. However, they were missing some domain names. I used mitmproxy to find the missing domains.
