How to calculate your AI budget for 2027 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s fall budgeting review time! A somewhat dreaded time of the year for GTM teams. You have a slide where you multiplied the headcount by the cost of a Pro Claude or ChatGPT license and rounded up a bit. In 2025, this showed you thought through it. This year, the game has changed. The costs are higher and harder to estimate and the person across the table has more questions on impact of the spend. Let’s up your budgeting game.<a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcd

One Claude dashboard for sales and marketing? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If I was back in a role leading a go-to-market team, this dashboard would be the first requirement for the team. Throughout my career, I grew tired of the disparate data sources and data reporting between sales and marketing. This fixes that. This gives one common source of truth for both teams and the executives that watch the data. <a class="image-link image2 is-viewable-img" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!c7u8!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post
