Introduction: Welcome to Five & Thrive: a weekly podcast highlighting the Southeast's most interesting news, entrepreneurs, and information of the week, all under 5 minutes.  My name is Jon Birdsong and I'm with Atlanta Ventures. Companies Worth Applying Too: I recently caught up with Ian Steward, CRO of Tricentis. Now if you dust off your Atlanta Startup history books, you'll remember about 4 years ago, Tricentis and QASymphony agreed to merge (yes they use the word merge in the press release) making them a leading player in the continuous testing industry. Ian joined QASymphony when they were under $1M in ARR. Today, they are doing hundreds of millions in revenue and hiring sales people all over the map, literally. Especially here in Atlanta. If you are looking for an organization that is not public but still hearty enough to have significant infrastructure to support your career and development, check out Tricentis. They are hiring for SDR's, AE's, and Enterprise Account Executives right now. Quiet Giant:  This week's quiet giant, and there are just so many in the salutary market of Atlanta and the Southeast, is called MapLarge. This is a platform for GeoSpatial and IoT Application Development. With about 40 employees according to LinkedIn, MapLarge is solving some of the world's hardest and most interesting mapping problems across dozens of industries and enterprise clients – all in the heart of Atlanta. If you love solving problems with GIS mapping tools this is your company…and yes, they are hiring too! Product of the Week: This week's product of the week produces a smarter, more versatile, and customized Alexa or any integratable virtual assistant. Co-founders Sam and Jerimiah have built a no-code platform for businesses so their products and services are delivered with the same intelligence we are used to with Siri. Normally it takes 40-80 hours of development time to build out one integration with a business to ensure it is sufficient for an intelligent conversation. They are currently onboarding several enterprise customers.  If you have a business where AI-powered virtual assistants are used to interact with customers, check out VoiceWorx as this will be a product you'll want to keep tabs on.  Company Coming Up: This company coming up has one of the best logos I've ever seen for an early stage software company. The name of the company is called Whskr and they are state of the art veterinary clinic software. Co-Founder Elliott and his wife have lived and breathed the problem of antiquated and clunky clinic software for veterinarians. Whskr allows for clinics to put automations around appointments, have much smarter inventory, and have streamlined labs all in a beautifully designed solution. Check out Whskr if not for the feature list at least for the logo.     Raise a Glass: Let's raise a glass to Michael Otis, CEO Procoto who just raised $750k led by Tampa Bay Ventures. Hypepotamus covered this week and this raise is part of a broader emerging story of Tampa Bay's startup ecosystem gaining significant steam. Procoto makes procurement software simple, affordable, and easy to implement. Michael went through YC and raised from one of the best firms in Florida. Keep an eye out for their growth, and they are hiring.    Annnnd, that's 5 minutes. Thank you for listening to Five and Thrive.

Welcome to Five & Thrive: a weekly podcast highlighting the Southeast's most interesting news, entrepreneurs, and information of the week, all under 5 minutes.    Hosted by Jon Birdsong, Partner at Atlanta Ventures.   Beta Product of the Week: This week Amanda Sabreah launched CopyFoundry on Product Hunt. Think of the Library of Congress for copywriting and brand positioning. Amanda has indexed every major company's copy and brand positioning so marketers can quickly learn, study, and then execute on those magical tools called words. What many smart entrepreneurs do is build community before baking out the product – this is a good example. Amanda knows this space very well and is an entrepreneur worth following on Twitter as she builds her next company.        Announcements of the Week: Dave Gray is an entrepreneur out of Birmingham (proving this is not just an Atlanta podcast), who is getting the band back together with Pamlico Capital to buy a business. Some of the characteristics include $10-$50M million in ARR, near the Rule of 40, and the CEO is looking to make a transition out of the business. Look up Dave Gray on LinkedIn.    Quiet Giant: Welcome Home Software - Software for Senior Living Homes operators is my favorite quiet giant of the week. I've been following them for years and they have phenomenal leadership and are growing fast and steady. John Larricia the CEO worked at Bain for over 2 decades before starting the company. Teddy Helfrich is leading sales and marketing and they are hiring in just about every department of the business – and I'm pretty sure they are unlisted.   Events to Put on the Calendar:  Paul Judge and Panoramic are hosting their monthly Startup Showdown on June 30th - this one is virtual. One winner walks away with $120k. Apps are due June 10th. Also, going to double down on the June 21st event at the Russell Innovation Center for Entrepreneurs. There is a link in the show notes to RSVP and more details from last week's pod.    Companies Worth Applying To: Josh Lieberman and the team at Visily.ai are looking for a Content Marketing Consultant to help with their content strategy and execution. The KMS Technology team have built several companies starting off with QASymphony which was a hit. From there, they started Kobiton, Grove HR, Katalon, and now Visily, which enables non-designers to create beautiful software app mockups. The KMS team are true builders.    The other company that has an ideal opening for the next up and coming Marketing Director is Copient Health. Mike Burke is a serial entrepreneur who successfully sold his last company, Clockwise MD, and is at it again with Copient Health which makes software to improve operating room efficiency.    Raise Your Glass: Bark, headquartered out of the Atlanta Tech Village, raised an impressive $30 million last week. Shout out to Brian and Titania. Bark keeps kids safer by providing parental control applications. Maija of Hypepotamus and Zach of Atlanta Inno wrote some quality pieces around the raise.

Alex Gobbi, CMO at Secureworks, and Kira Mondrus, CMO of QASymphony, discuss their important role at their respective companies. They share their expertise on what it means to be a modern chief marketing officer, and how others can implement their tips in their own companies.

How do some companies create loyalty between themselves and their employees while others watch talented staff and executives click through a turnstile? According to the guys who founded LinkedIn, the secret to corporate loyalty lies in creating a tour of duty framework. I recently interviewed David Keil (pronounced Kyle), founder and chief executive of QASymphony. We talked about how he's applying the tour of duty concept at his company. David discovered tour of duty on a flight to Vietnam when he opened the book The Alliance: Managing Talent in the Networked Age by LinkedIn founders Reid Hoffman and Chris Yeh. Technology companies are particularly vulnerable to high turnover, so when Hoffman and Yeh started LinkedIn, they decided their new company would be the outlier. That's why they created a tour of duty.

He's hired a lot of people, he always seems to be in the know about who to hire. (Sangram even gets consistent emails from him about recruitment.) So, how does he constantly have such a solid talent pool, even in today's market? Let's find out.
