Severed Conscience is not only about control, it is also about yielding agency. Aldus Huxley said “There will be, in the next generation or so, a pharmacological method for making people love their servitude, and producing dictatorship without tears”. Technology, tuned to our dopamine cycles, is eliminating our conscious rejection of has made us a thriving society. MIT Technology Review recently found that a chatbot provider called Botify AI was similarly hosting chatbot versions of sexualized, de-aged celebrity women, while a Futurism investigation last year found that the chatbot startup Character.AI — which is currently fighting two child welfare lawsuits — was hosting chatbots expressly designed to groom underage users.The same Bro-ligarchs who preach their technical superiority are somehow unable to stop the proliferation of sexually explicit imagery involving children. But they claim they have technology that will protect us from violence if we all just register our identities. They will build out a Digital Twin for us all. And with the violence imposed by illegal immigrants and drug cartels, many seem eager to embrace such a system.The original video for this podcast can be found at https://rumble.com/v6s3o4d-morning-mission-gretchs-lyin-eyes.htmlWe have been manipulated.

Dans ce nouvel épisode, Matthieu Stefani & Augustin Sayer rencontrent pour la première fois un des souscripteurs du fonds OVNI : Thomas Grange. Ils abordent avec lui son parcours dans l'industrie audiovisuelle et des médias, mettant en avant l'importance de l'innovation et de l'adaptabilité. Ils découvrent qu'en 1999, à l'âge de 16 ans, il a lancé son premier site web, ados.fr, comprenant un magazine, un forum, des blogs, des cartes virtuelles, des chats, des webradios et des interviews vidéo. Société qu'il vendra en 2005 à Doctissimo et travaillera pour eux à Paris, explorant de nouveaux concepts web et découvrant le SEO. Ils abordent ensuite les années 2010, où il entreprend à nouveau et fonde Ulule, une plate-forme de crowdfunding. Pour financer Ulule, ils fournissent avec son associé des services d'audit SEO et créent une nouvelle société Botify, une plate-forme d'optimisation de moteur de recherche. En 2012, Thomas décide de se consacrer entièrement à Botify, qui connaît une croissance rapide et réalise plusieurs levées de fonds, totalisant 82,2 millions de dollars en financement. Ces fonds permettent à Thomas d'élargir ses activités et d'innover davantage. Les échanges mettent également en lumière les défis rencontrés par les fondateurs d'entreprise, soulignant l'importance de l'expérimentation et de l'adaptation, notamment avec l'arrivée de l'intelligence artificielle qui rebat certaines cartes. Thomas se confie au cours de l'épisode sur les raisons qui l'ont amené à soutenir OVNI Ventures, notamment l'axe de l'investissement en région, le rôle de soutien aux entrepreneurs qu'incarne OVNI et la diversité des talents dans lesquels ils investissent.
Négliger son lead scoring, c'est mettre en péril sa boîte. Et pourtant, le lead scoring est (trop souvent) négligé.Mais, pas de panique !Dans ce nouvel épisode du podcast Engrenages, on a longuement parlé de cette technique avec mon invité, Antoine Leprince.Antoine est actuellement Global Senior Director of Rev Ops chez Botify.Avant cela, il est passé par la Finance en tant que VC Analyst.Ensuite, il rejoint Easy Movie, d'abord en tant que Global Sales Ops puis en évoluant au poste de Global Rev Ops. En 2022, il intègre les équipes de Botify où il y gère aujourd'hui l'ensemble des activités Rev Ops & Enablement.Au cours de notre échange, on a notamment pris le temps de détailler l'importance de bien définir son Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) et son lead scoring afin d'aligner les besoins de ses clients avec la valeur que son produit/service est capable de délivrer.Voici justement 3 éléments à retenir sur ce sujet :• Il faut prendre le temps d'identifier l'alignement entre le besoin de ses clients et la valeur apportée par le produit/service• Il est important de faire évoluer son Ideal Customer Profile selon l'évolution de vos produits/services• Il est indispensable de mettre à disposition des Sales des supports adaptés au scoring des prospectsMais Antoine ne s'est pas arrêté là !Grâce à son parcours, il regorge de bonnes pratiques et d'erreurs à éviter.Une en particulier a retenu mon attention :Quand vous découvrez un produit qui a tout pour booster la productivité de ses équipes, vous l'achetez ? Antoine, non. Il en crée une réplique.Il développe une version Minimum Viable Product (MVP) des outils qu'il déniche pour en tester l'usage auprès de ses équipes chez Botify.Je vous laisse découvrir dans cet épisode les avantages d'une telle pratique.
Booster sa performance commerciale, ou comment faire x2 sur son CA sans recruter 2x plus de sales.Voilà un des enjeux d'une équipe Revenue Ops.Et pour traiter ce sujet, j'ai eu le plaisir de recevoir Charles Tenot au micro du podcast Engrenages.Charles, actuel COO chez lempire, est avant cela passé par des postes de VP Business Operations, Chief Revenue Officer ou encore Chief Business Officer dans dans des boîtes qui ont connu l'hyper croissance (Botify, Assoconnect, Skello, Spendesk).Après un début de carrière comme consultant puis un 1er job de CFO en startup, il se rend rapidement compte que pour avoir + d'impact, il lui est nécessaire de rentrer dans le détail du CRM et de la performance commerciale.C'est à partir de ce moment là que son rôle évolue et que son champ d'action devient de plus en plus large au fil de ses expériences.Booster les performances commerciales des équipes Sales ?C'est un sujet qu'il affectionne particulièrement et pour lequel il obtient de très bons résultats alors même qu'il n'a jamais réellement vendu de sa vie.Pendant 2h30 d'échange, on revient donc sur l'ensemble de son parcours et il nous partage tous ses secrets et nous livre bon nombre d'informations très concrètes :

Benoît est VP of Design chez Botify. Benoît n'est pas designer de formation, car il a commencé par des études littéraires. A la sortie de ses études, il rejoint l'agence web Business Lab en tant que concepteur rédacteur. Dans cette agence, il côtoie des designers et commence à utiliser Photoshop. Après 2 ans de pratique sur son temps libre, Benoît est recruter en tant que Designer et apprend son métier sur le tas. Après quelques temps, Benoît décide de passer freelance avant d'être contacté par l'agence World Appeal pour constituer son équipe Design. Il travaille sur des newsletters et des sites internet pour des entreprises du luxe ou des banques. En même temps, Benoît fonde *designers interactifs*, une association professionnelle autour du Design. Son objectif principal : faire en sorte que les designers se rencontrent et partagent leur métier et leurs méthodes de travail, ce qui n'était pas quelque chose d'évident en 2006. Après plus de 200 évènements organisés, l'association se concentre désormais sur l'évolution du marché du Design au travers d'études annuelles. Via cette association, Benoît a également rejoint le Conseil National du Design en septembre 2021, qui conseille le gouvernement français sur politique de Design. Il nous explique comment fonctionne le conseil, ce qui en est attendu et à que cela va servir. Après 3 ans à travailler intensément pour l'agence World Appeal, à la rédaction d'un livre, au développement de *designers interactifs* et à l'enseignement, Benoît décide de quitter World Appeal, pour faire du freelance et à construire le cours de design d'interaction de l'école Strate. Benoît revient sur le cours qu'il a mis en place à l'époque en étant convaincu que les interactions allaient passer par des objets physiques plus que par des interfaces numériques. En parallèle, Benoît est freelance, il se retrouve une nouvelle fois à faire le grand écart entre toutes ses activités et décide de se reconcentrer. Au même moment, il est contacter pour retourner chez World Appeal pour y occuper le rôle de Head of UX. Il revient sur les raisons qui l'ont poussé à revenir dans sa précédente agence. On discute également des méthodes de travail en agence : recherche utilisateur, suivi des livrables, etc. Après 4 ans, Benoît qui une nouvelle fois l'agence. Cette fois, il a l'envie de travailler directement pour et dans une entreprise. Ce qui l'amène chez Oodrive en tant qu'Head of Design. Il nous explique les raisons de son recrutement, comment il a développé une vision design dans une entreprise vieille de 18 ans, pourquoi et comment faire de la user research, quels profils recrutés et comment les faire monter en compétences, comment refondre et designer 7 produits différents et comment la micro-copie. Au bout de 4 années, Benoît à envie de voir autre chose. Il souhaite rejoindre une entreprise avec plus de moyens et un esprit plus start-up de que PME. C'est alors qu'il rejoint Botify en tant que VP of Design. Un rôle similaire à son précédent, mais avec une dimension beaucoup plus stratégique.

Je suis allé chez Botify pour enregistrer un Podcast avec leur CTO, Pierre Couzy. L'échange a été très transparent et bienveillant. On a parlé de beaucoup de choses : les parcours de carrière l'évaluation des collaborateurs le management, les outils des managers, leur formation Culture produit et Culture QA (!) Mix remote et hybride Transparence des salaires Mais ce qui m'a impressionné, et cela revient dans pleins de petites phrases tout au long de l'échange avec Pierre, c'est qu'il aime vraiment comment les startups fonctionnent. Pierre a travaillé chez Microsoft, chez Criteo et chez Ledger. Et les boîtes en pleine croissance, les startups, il est convaincu que c'est un endroit fantastique pour un développeur et pour un tech. Je vous laisse entendre pour quoi. Après ce Podcast, vous aurez sûrement envie d'écouter : - L'épisode 31 avec Christophe et Annaëlle de Apside - L'épisode 25 avec Olivier Cauvin (CTO) chez Skell
Dans cet épisode avec Christophe Frenet, Chief Product Officer chez Botify, on parle de la mise en place d' "outcome-driven teams" au sein de l'entreprise. Christophe est un des premiers CPOs que je reçois qui verbalise quelque chose dans lequel je crois personnellement et qui est central dans la réussite d'une orga produit : "psychological safety". Il nous livre concrètement les étapes de la mise en place de cette organisation qui fait qu'aujourd'hui ses équipes sont autonomes depuis la compréhension des problèmes clients jusqu'aux spécifications produit. On échange également sur l'importance du binôme product manager + product designer l'impact de la "psychologial safety" sur la capacité de l'équipe produit de prendre une décision la discovery comme vecteur de l'autonomisation des équipes la culture de la collaboration dans un monde où le CPO est à des milliers de kilomètres du reste de l'équipe

How to request that search bots index your contentHello! Thanks for listening to SEO tips today.After months of the “request indexing” tool being unavailable, the feature returned right before the end of 2020. Many SEO's praised its return, but that was about it; SEOs went on about their day. We didn't hear much about how the feature changed or any limitations it might now have.You can submit about 10-12 a day before it throws you an error. Of course, both search engines also lean heavily on content discovery via clean XML sitemaps - especially when you submit them via your search accounts.Now for Bing, you can submit 10,000 a day via their URL submission feature or you can submit URLs through the Bing Webmaster API. Botify has a feature where it will submit for you. In general, though, you should think about why Google or Bing has not found your content and indexed it in the first place. With the increasing popularity of JavaScript frameworks, there could be something else going on that is limiting the search engines in discovering and indexing your content. And of course, your content also has to be *worth* indexing in the first place.Now for Bing, years ago we noticed that if a URL was tweeted, it was picked up faster (and Bing says it does use social links as signals), though I'm not sure if that tactic still works today.So that's your tip for today - how to manually submit URLs via Google and Bing.Thanks for listening. Come back tomorrow for another SEO tip.

Botify, a search engine optimization company that works with customers like Expedia and Nike, announced today that it has raised $20 million in Series B funding. Co-founder and CEO Adrien Menard said that the opportunity in SEO is “even bigger now than in the past,” and that the problem ismuch broader problem than many realize.
In September 2016, Adrien Menard, CEO of Paris-born Botify packed his bags and moved together with his wife and two kids to New York to open Botify's US office. He had chosen New York mainly due to the slightly shorter time difference with Paris in comparison to the much more unsurmountable 9 hours with the West coast. Adrien was leaving 24 employees behind and venturing into the new world all by himself. Visas took more time, the advice his lawyer gave him was wrong multiple times, and Adrien would have to reinvent overnight how Botify communicated and made decisions. Despite all that, there was not a grain of doubt that he was doing the right thing. He had a $7 million Series A funding round and a 10% US-based customer base to give him confidence as the going got tough. Fast forward almost two years later after Adrien moved to New York, US customers now represent 60% of the revenue, and the Botify employee count has risen to 100 with 25 of them based in the New York office. How did all that work out? Listen on to hear: What's the one thing you need to have achieved to secure a funding round for scaling What are the two most important teams in a US HQ What has been the most challenging thing in scaling to the US and how did Adrien address it Why as beloved as Slack is for remote teams, it's not the best solution according to Adrien and what he uses instead How Botify stays cash efficient Adrien is one of many speakers we will have at SaaStock18 in Dublin, coming from all corners of the world and sharing a variety of lessons and experiences. 3000 attendees will come to see and learn from Corey Thomas, April Dunford, Christoph Janz and many more speakers we have.
