Hey all, I'm the cofounder and CEO of Drift. Happy to answer any questions here.
I'll kick this off. What's the thinking behind this piece of your larger vision from a product perspective?
Love this. I'm excited about trying out Drift when it's ready. In the past I've missed VIPs and only noticed later on. I saw sumome as an integration as well as intercom. Sumome captures leads while intercom captures trials/customers. I'm guessing I only want to set up one integration and focus on trials/customers?
Ruben-long time since we last chatted! I hope all is rocking at Bidsketch! You should hook up both actually. Drift Daily works with you Subscribers, Leads and Customers. We built Drift Daily to help businesses, like Bidsketch, get to know the people that are subscribing to, interested in, and already your great customers better.
Any ETA on Zapier or Segment or Salesforce integration? Super bummed to only see Hubspot currently supported.
Zapier and Segment should be available next week. We can hook you up with early access if you email me at david at drift com.
I would not trust the upvote numbers on this, a request for upvotes was emailed to the company's master mailing list. Number jumped from mid 50s in just a few minutes.
I don't remember joining that email list either. Maybe they rebranded and it was so long ago I don't remember, but I can't find any confirmation for it in my inbox. Only that I started receiving Drift Daily emails on a weekly basis in mid-January.
They did do that, but they didn't threaten me with my life if I didn't upvote. Just a call-to-action - one I, as a person on the email list, was happy to take once I looked at the product.
I'm not sure 'they didn't do it to me at gunpoint' is a valid argument, but either way, it's against the Product Hunt ToS. You can certainly send an email and say "We are launching on PH here [link]", which is not at all against ToS, and you could have upvoted anyway. Explicitly asking folks to go upvote or provide an update goal is, however, an obvious violation - not only should the smart folks behind this product know that (I'm sure they do), but it's plastered all over the submission side of things.
if you're bored today come hangout with us. We are at 1 Canal Park in Cambridge and are super friendly. Ask for me when you get here. We can hangout, chat and become fast friends.
Did you send out an email asking for votes? If so then Josh is right about abusing the TOS. If that's the case I don't see anything wrong with Josh pointing this out. Your comment comes across as condescending and looks like a way to belittle Josh.
This is a great idea. It's a product concept I explored with a Zack Shapiro a few years ago called whosignedup.com, and now it's great to see this live with a larger product behind the idea. Looking forward to seeing how this evolves.
I remember telling me about Who Signed Up and was eager to give it a try. I'll check out Drift Daily, although side note: the name seems completely unrelated to me. Sounds like a racing game.
thanks for checking it out. Anything that reminds you of video games and/or fast cars sounds awesome to me. 🏎
Congrats on the launch! We use intercom now, which seems like a direct competitor. How are you different?
thank you! Drift Daily integrates with Intercom and many other applications (available next week). You can use both together. With Drift Daily we're trying to provide more context, share this information in more places (like Slack) and generally help you build relationships with your subscribers, users and customers.
The Drift Daily notifications have much more detail in Slack than Intercom. The dataset seems much better too.
We've been using this for Tettra.co for the past week and it's been super helpful. Gone are the days of Googling for sign up's LinkedIn profiles to see where they work. Super useful tool, especially if you're using Slack.
Guys cool idea. Looking forward to the mailchimp integration.
We just launched our Mailchimp integration: Would love for you to check it out.
I wish that this existed for people that follow you on twitter
Good idea. :)
That's cool. What I'm more interested in is a tool that could discern the 'trusty sidekick' persona. As in, who is connected - in a meaningful way - that I can I utilize to "trade up the chain" so to speak. That, to me, is a killer app - mapping the informal flows of influence.
Interesting idea!
I think we have a decent shot at modeling those informal networks now. AI + big data is interesting. Add some hot content in to identify nodes and we're close.
Nice ! I'm excited to see how this works and how it integrates w/ HubSpot :)
Thanks!!!!
Nice! We did something similar at StackLead (). This looks really clean and it will be interesting to see what features they add to connect with VIP signups and improve the onboarding experience.
My friend tipped us on StackLead this morning. Looks like you did some great work. Hope all is well for you guys at Linkedin! 🚀 Also would love to pick your brains to learn from your experiences if I could ever buy you coffee/beers/dinner/etc.
Thanks! Yes, everything's going well :) Sure thing - send me an email at gwintrob [at] gmail.com and we'll set something up.
