Here's a quick bit of wisdom from today's guest for Coffee with Closers. You can work on a product, customer success, and operations as much as you want, but you've got to be able to find your customers. No customers, no business. And don't stress too much about every little detail. No one knows what the end product or the end solution looks like except for yourself. Meet Jay Desai, founder and CEO of Swpely – a tool for saving and sharing content or, as Jay describes it, a Pinterest for business people. Jay has extensive experience in growth marketing, and in this conversation, he's going to share some practical advice for marketers and sales leaders on how to reach their target customers in the most efficient way possible. Coming up: • In what ways is offering a free product different from using a freemium model? • What are the benefits of a waitlist in SaaS? • Why is it important to lean on your internal understanding of marketing rather than following the external playbook? • What are some lessons that service companies can learn from SaaS? • What is growth hacking and how to approach it as a marketer? • How to measure success from the efforts that aren't directly tied to ROI?

What is influencer marketing all about? How can you build quality relationships with influencers? And is B2B influencer marketing the same as B2C? If you've asked yourself any of these questions before, prepare yourself to finally get some of those answers from Jay Desai. Jay is the Founder of Swpely, a tool for saving, curating, and sharing modern content on the internet. He decided to build Swpely as a new, better solution that makes it easier to save the best ideas online as well as make ideas more actionable. Jay has a rich background in B2B marketing, content, growth, and influencer marketing. According to Jay, to be an influencer, you don't need to have a million followers.

If you want to learn more about how to implement successful influencer collaborations, tune in to this episode of the Content Logistics podcast.

Jay Desai has always wanted to be an entrepreneur. At 11-years-old, he had a newsletter business. In middle school, he was reselling sticks of gum bought at Costco. While working for Trend, a B2B startup last year, Jay came upon a problem: how to collect content from around the Web for future reference. One thing led to another and Jay created Swpely, which he describes as Pinterest for B2B. It's a free service that makes it easy to collect digital content, social media, updates, videos, and photos. In this episode of Marketing Spark, Jay talks about the transition from full-time employee to entrepreneur, and how he plans to grow Swpely into a full-featured content aggregation platform.

I'm your host, Christian Klepp, and one of the founders of EINBLICK Consulting. Our goal is to share inspirational stories, tips and insights from b2b marketers, digital entrepreneurs, and industry experts that will help you think differently, succeed and scale your business.Alright, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to this episode of the B2B Marketers on a Mission podcast. I'm your host, Christian Klepp. And today, I'd like to welcome a guest into the show whom I've connected with courtesy of the RevGenius community. He's an expert in the B2B SaaS space, an extremely driven individual and a strong believer in continuous improvement. So coming to us from Austin, Texas, Mr. Jay Desai, welcome to the show.Jay Desai 00:54Thanks, Christian. Thanks for having me. I'm excited to be on here.Christian Klepp 00:58All right, Jay, it's really great to connect again, let's get this show on the road. So do a little bit of an introduction and tell us a bit about yourself.Jay Desai 01:07Yeah, definitely. So I am currently the head of growth at Trend. And we are essentially a creator marketplace for brands and influencers. Myself, personally, this is my second run into early stage b2b marketing. So I used to work in another company before that called CareerPlug that did HR software, hiring software. In both situations, I've kind of been the only full time marketer. So I've had to get really creative and start building out processes from the ground up for marketing. And I usually don't have very much budget as well, which is something which is a challenge, but I actually prefer it as well, because it really makes you have to get creative on how you approach solutions to problems. But that's a little bit about me and my background.Christian Klepp 01:59Great story, man. And thanks so much for sharing that. And, you know, you brought up an interesting point about like, you know, having to deliver and improve the performance of your organization's marketing, despite having a limited budget, and you know, there's that old saying, like, "Necessity is the mother of invention." And we're definitely going to talk about that later on. But in the meantime, talk to us about a recent project that you've been working on what's gotten you excited?Jay Desai 02:27Yeah, I'll kind of give two of them actually, for you. So one of them is our content strategy that we've just continued to iterate and optimize. So right now we're working with a freelance writer. And so we're spending about maybe, I think, less than two grand a month on content production.
The landscape of influencer marketing tools is wide and varied. We’ve talked to some of the software company executives here on the show. The IZEAs, Onalyticas and Mavrcks of the worlds are large databases with a high-touch managed services that sit on top of them. I’ve used several of them and they’re great. There are others, like ApexDrop, that are more about product distribution and micro-influencer engagement. Still more are just do-it-yourself databases like HypeAudtior that help you find, but you do a lot of the work. And that’s just scratching the surface. Trend is a relatively new entry into the space and it’s a bit of a hybrid of an influencer marketing discovery platform and a creator marketplace. But it has a slightly different spin than most of the others. It’s an application and invite only platform of highly curated influencers. Jay Desai is the head of growth at Trend. He joined me to explain a little more about what distinguishes the platform, what they vet influencers for to ensure it’s a strong offering and Trend-specific topics. But more broadly we talk about the current state of the influencer space, the different philosophies in approach, both for brands and for software companies, and more.

In the 1996 election, Bill Clinton had a problem. The women who came out in droves for him in ‘92, split their vote in the ‘94 midterms, handing over control of the House and the Senate to the Republican Party. As his team stared ahead at his re-election bid, they knew they had to win those women back. So, after a major polling effort to determine who exactly their undecided ladies were, Clinton turned his focus toward the most important swing vote in the election: the soccer moms. The soccer mom ushered in a new era of political campaigning, an era of slicing and dicing the electorate, engineering the (predominately white) voting bloc characters that campaigns have chased after. Security Moms. Nascar Dads. Joe Six Pack. Walmart Moms. But what about everyone else? What about the surprisingly swingable corners of this country without a soccer mom in sight? Inspired by this exceedingly cool interactive map from Politico, we set out on a mission to make an audio-map of our own. We asked pollsters, reporters and political operatives in swing states: what slice of your population is up for grabs? A slice that no one talks about? In this episode, we crawl inside the places that might hold our country’s future in its hands, all the while asking: are these slices even real? Are there people inside them that might swing this election? This episode was reported and produced by Becca Bressler, Tobin Low, Sarah Qari, Tracie Hunte, Pat Walters and Matt Kielty, with help from Jonny Moens.

Today’s healthcare silos cause a multitude of problems that range from information gaps to duplicative efforts. The patient is in the middle, often relying solely on her own capabilities to fill in the gaps or prevent redundant procedures. At best, the healthcare system is inefficient. At its worst, the healthcare system puts patients in danger. Jay Desai, CEO & Co-founder of PatientPing shares his perspective on how interoperability can solve many of these issues.

Dear Friends & Colleagues,On Friday March 27th 2020, I launched a limited podcast series addressing how the COVID-19 pandemic is reframing American healthcare. You can find the introduction episode here. In this series, I interview future-facing, courageous, healthcare leaders and entrepreneurs - to ask two questions: (1) How is the COVID-19 pandemic immediately changing the way you are delivering healthcare? (2) How will COVID-19 reframe American healthcare for years to come? In this episode, we’ll be interviewing Jay Desai. Jay is the founder & CEO of PatientPing. PatientPing’s mission is simple: connecting providers to seamlessly coordinate patient care. They provide real-time ADT feeds (Admissions, Discharges & Transfers) to providers so they can provide more coordinated and integrated care to their patients. I have first-hand experience with their service, and can’t say enough good things about PatientPing.In our dialogue, we covered a range of topics focusing largely on the flow of patients across the healthcare continuum, especially in the post acute care space. And, how the infrastructure of the healthcare ecosystem is fundamentally being reframed by the COVID-19 experience. Our discussion included:The impact of COVID-19 on nursing homes and home health services - and the reframing of the so-called ‘post acute care’ domain.How hospitals may become hyper-segmented in the future - the very real possibility of healthcare ‘focus factories’ that have been forecasted by HBS luminaries such as Regina Herzlinger and Clayton Christensen.The reframing of ‘essential services’ including primary care.The radical (overnight) shift from patients being ‘pulled’ into ED’s & hospitals to patients being ‘pushed’ away from hospitals.A major ‘silver-lining’ by-product of this pandemic, which are the rapid regulatory changes coming out of CMS (see link or go to www.cms.gov/newsroom for recent updates) Jay Desai has a brilliant mind and a brilliant heart. He is an empathetic and innovative entrepreneur, and a brilliant observer and commentator on the changes that are happening, as well as those that are coming in healthcare. I hope to have the opportunity to speak with him again some time soon. These are unprecedented times, so I hope you find valuable information, guidance, and inspiration in listening to these experts and entrepreneurs share how they are adapting to this pandemic (in real time); and how they’re thinking about and planning for the future.Until next time, be safe and be well,Zeev Neuwirth MD

Dear Friends & Colleagues,The promise of real-time health information connectivity and coordination of care has been elusive. That is, until now. Jay Desai, co-founder and CEO of a company called ‘Patient Ping’, has created a platform that allows for real-time notification of a patient encounter in any healthcare facility or home care. Even more revolutionary, the platform delivers bi-directional information automatically. The need for this type of connectivity is obvious to healthcare professionals and organizations that are accountable for the quality, safety, appropriate utilization and cost effectiveness of care delivered. Part of the challenge for providers is that approximately 30 to 50% of healthcare costs incurred by most integrated delivery systems is actually from clinical care delivered outside of the home system. This percentage is higher for independent provider groups and systems in highly competitive markets. That means that even in the best of integrated delivery networks, there is already a 30 to 50% ‘accountability handicap’. Prior to co-founding PatientPing in 2013, Jay Desai worked at the CMS Innovation Center (CMMI) where he helped develop Accountable Care Organizations (ACO’s), bundled payments and other value-based initiatives. He has an MBA in Healthcare Management from the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, and a BA from the University of Michigan.Jay's professional passion lies at the intersection of technology, policy and community. He first discovered the need for real-time, cross-institutional connectivity when he was at CMS. Provider groups were asking CMS for some way to ‘know’, in real-time, when and where their patients were receiving clinical care. These systems needed to know so they could intervene and prevent unnecessary, as well as potentially, harmful tests and procedures. They needed to know so they could follow-up when their patients were discharged from another institution. It's a critically important issue for patients and providers - and this is where Jay Desai and PatientPing come in…In this interview we’ll discuss:The two major offerings of PatientPing - the “ping” notification that tells you where your patients are; and the “stories” which tell you where your patients have been.The different ways healthcare systems are utilizing PatientPing to communicate between hospital-based care/case managers, ambulatory care medical homes, emergency departments, nursing homes and home health services.The remarkable outcomes demonstrated with the PatientPing platform, and how they are achieving those results.PatientPing’s customizable “consumer grade user-experience”,as well as the enhancements they're making.PatientPing is designed to not only respond to the needs of accountable providers and organizations. It’s also designed to create healthier ‘communities of care’ – to enhance the complex inter-dependencies of the clinical ecosystem. The data PatientPing is collecting is beginning to demonstrate that avoidable healthcare utilization across communities is decreasing: lower avoidable emergency room visits, hospital admissions and nursing home days - all of which leads to better care at lower costs.There is more than one value proposition PatientPing offers. The embedded analytics will also reveal care patterns - allowing systems and communities to better understand where patients are going, and allow for more proactive preventive care. Another easily overlooked value proposition is the user experience. The information PatientPing relies on was already there beforehand. They’ve simply made it more accessible to providers of care. As Jay points out, it’s analogous to the situation with Google Maps. The GPS data was already present when companies like Google and Waze made it easily accessible and usable for the consuming public. PatientPing has done something very similar with the data in the Health Information Exchange network and the health information locked up in proprietary electronic medical records. They’ve made this information accessible and consumer-friendly for providers of care - across and between institutions and practices. It may be a simple concept but the impact and value proposition is profound. It’s going to assist providers and patients with better communication, better integration and better coordination of care. It’s going to make healthcare delivery more seamless and safe. And, who wouldn’t want that?ReplyForward

Jay Desai is Co-founder and CEO of PatientPing, a care coordination platform that brings an individual's medical records together to eliminate these problems. The service is built on network effects, sending providers alerts when the patient receives care at other facilities and also compiles their history into “stories” at the point of care. The goal, says Desai, is to reduce costs through fewer redundant tests and treatments, as well as provide insight that will improve care based on past events and reduce adverse outcomes or readmissions.
