My quest right now is to help people realize that selling is a game you can play and win.
I've closed millions as a founder who started in design. I used to think sales was an art form. It's not.
Sales is about finding people who believe what you believe—then turning them into champions. Champions do the real work: selling your product to their team from the inside.
Buyer enablement = equipping champions to actually navigate their internal buying process.
New guide for 2025, best practices included rally.space/buyer-enablement
"Can you share the meeting recording?"
If your champion is asking you this, they're trying to sell for you and you've given them nothing to work with.
Over the past few months we've been going deep on buyer enablement—what your champion actually needs to move a deal through a buying committee.
@rallyspace -> One link with the demo, mutual action plan, security docs, pricing, case studies. Everything organized. No permission errors. No hunting through email.
Here's how it works 👇
We are adding deal rooms to Rally — so now you can give your buyer champions more than a PDF and a prayer to sell internally. Let me know what you think!
Vibe marketing is about to get fun with @midjourney video.
Turn image into video clip/GIF -> add text = social post.
PS. Our website hero also got a lil' refresh this week. More incoming.
What did you make this week?
This update is all about team show and tell:
▶️ Team Playlists: record updates with your team and share them in one place.
💬 Text Overlays: Annotate your video, just like your favorite social apps
⚡️AI Summaries: Rally Boards now extract highlights and auto-summarize content. TL;DR: Nice.
As a remote company, we've been dogfooding this internally @rallyspace for a few weeks now for "Demo Fridays". People add videos to playlist throughout the week, AI summarizes highlights. Super easy to follow along + completely async team updates.
And of course, you can make team playlists for anything. Onboarding, upcoming releases, team updates - your whole team can add to it (or not)
We're tuning the AI summary prompts for different types of team playlists - so please, if you want to help us dogfood it, I'd be thrilled: rally.space
Im excited for the era of vibe marketing — people with ideas don’t have to wait for people on the design team for slides, social, website etc — this was always a bottleneck because design isn’t an easily transferable skill within teams — let’s see if TASTE is.
A few thoughts on the new ChatGPT image release.
(1) This changes filters. Instagram filters required custom code; now all you need are a few keywords like “Studio Ghibli” or Dr. Seuss or South Park.
(2) This changes online ads. Much of the workflow of ad unit generation can now be automated, as per QT below.
(3) This changes memes. The baseline quality of memes should rise, because a critical threshold of reducing prompting effort to get good results has been reached.
(4) This may change books. I’d like to see someone take a public domain book from
Project Gutenberg, feed it page by page into Claude, and have it turn it into comic book panels with the new ChatGPT. Old books may become more accessible this way.
(5) This changes slides. We’re now close to the point where you can generate a few reasonable AI images for any slide deck. With the right integration, there should be less bullet-point only presentations.
(6) This changes websites. You can now generate placeholder images in a site-specific style for any
tag, as a kind of visual Loren Ipsum.
(7) This may change movies. We could see shot-for-shot remakes of old movies in new visual styles, with dubbing just for the artistry of it. Though these might be more interesting as clips than as full movies.
(8) This may change social networking. Once this tech is open source and/or cheap enough to widely integrate, every upload image button will have a generate image alongside it.
(9) This should change image search. A generate option will likewise pop up alongside available images.
(10) In general, visual styles have suddenly become extremely easy to copy, even easier than frontend code. Distinction will have to come in other ways.
