In this episode of Tank Talks, host Matt Cohen sits down with Rahul Parmar, Head of Go-to-Market at Railway and Venture Partner at Ripple Ventures, to unpack the real truths of building a sales engine in the modern AI era. Rahul shares his journey from being one of the first sales hires at Google Cloud in London to scaling Drata's sales team from Series A to Series C, and now leading GTM at the developer-first cloud platform, Railway. He explains why the traditional sales hierarchy is becoming obsolete, how he built Drata's engine by hiring in Toronto when it was a contrarian move, and why he believes Canadian reps are some of the best in the world.They break down the “time chamber” theory of selling in Canada, why the US market is a “shooting fish in a barrel” for trained Canadian talent, and the fundamental problem with Canada's ecosystem: a lack of capital and customers, not a lack of great founders. Rahul also shares his spicy take on the AI boom, explaining why the era of marking up token prices is over and why enterprises will soon distribute their AI workloads across multiple models.Whether you're a founder trying to land your first enterprise deal, a sales leader building a team, or an engineer contemplating a move to the Bay Area, this conversation offers a rare look inside the new playbook for winning in GTM.From Google Cloud to Drata: The Early Days of a Sales Career (02:07)* Joining Google Cloud in London as the 5th or 6th seller, when revenue was under $100M* The “confidence in the root” that Google provides, and using that shield to be transparent with customers* Why the best sales advice is: “Tell them what you do, tell them what you don't do, and then shut up”* Transitioning to Drata as the first sales leader, taking it from $50M in revenueThe “Time Chamber” Theory: Why Canadian Sales Talent is Elite (13:18)* The Dragon Ball Z analogy: Selling in Canada is like training in a weighted vest* Why Canadian buyers are incredibly difficult, forcing reps to master the fundamentals* How Canadian reps “crush it” when unleashed on the US market, where the propensity to buy is higher* The story of Drata's top AEs in every segment being based in TorontoThe AI Era of Selling: Fewer Reps, More Revenue (15:41)* Why you can now scale to $1B in revenue with a team the size of a Series A startup* The shift from a siloed GTM model to a unified one where GTM leaders are involved in everything* Why the era of the “forecast aggregator” sales manager is over* The new imperative: You're either building the system or you're selling deals* How Railway builds its own internal software, like its own Zendesk, to own the customer experienceRailway: The Developer Experience First Cloud (20:49)* What Railway is: The cloud where you point to a GitHub repo and it just launches* Why they run their own steel: The rate limits and poor fit of building a cloud on another cloud* The importance of owning the entire stack for a usage-based business* Why post-close support is a huge part of the revenue game at RailwayThe Canadian Ecosystem: Capital, Customers, and the Need for Network Effects (25:21)* Why it doesn't matter where the investors come from, but where the capital and customers are* The “tragedy” of successful Canadian companies, like Wattpad and Turbo Puffer, having their exit proceeds and financing led by US firms* The two fundamental problems for Canadian startups: access to capital and access to early customers* The “35 in Toronto vs. 35 in SF” thought experiment: Why you can't monetize your network in Canada* Why companies like Datadog and Snowflake would have died in the water if they started in TorontoAI, GTM, and the Future of Sales (35:41)* How Rahul uses AI at Railway to do lookalike mapping of customers based on usage patterns* Why he doesn't believe in high-volume, AI-driven cold outreach* The one quality he looks for in great GTM people: Intelligence, defined as listening for what's not being said and storytelling* How to call “b******t” on a sales hire in an interview: Ask for second-level details on a deal* His spicy take: The era of marking up token prices is over; enterprises will soon distribute workloads across a mix of frontier and open-source modelsThe Road Ahead: Building from Anywhere, Winning Everywhere (39:38)* The plan for Canadian founders: Build your product here, sell it in the US* The value of doing a stint at a high-growth US company, like Ramp or Anthropic, to absorb the culture and build a network* Why the next generation of Canadian founders should not apologize for building here* The “Build, Follow, or Get Out of the Way” mentality for the Toronto tech ecosystemAbout Rahul ParmarRahul Parmar is the Head of Go-to-Market at Railway, a developer experience first cloud platform, and a Venture Partner at Ripple Ventures. Previously, he was the first sales leader at Drata, where he scaled the sales team from Series A to Series C. He was also one of the first sales hires for Google Cloud in London. He holds a degree from business school and built Canada's largest coding bootcamp, Lighthouse Labs, before his career in high-growth SaaS.Connect with Rahul Parmar: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahulparmargtm/Visit the Railway website: https://railway.com/Connect with Matt Cohen on LinkedIn: https://ca.linkedin.com/in/matt-cohen1Visit the Ripple Ventures website: https://www.rippleventures.com/ This is a public episode.

O najgorętszym gatunku literackim ostatnich lat rozmawiam z literaturoznawczynią i krytyczką literacką Agnieszką Budnik.Romantasy (romance + fantasy) sprzedaje się w milionach egzemplarzy: Rebecca Yarros sprzedała 2,7 mln kopii „Onyx Storm" w tydzień (a to tylko trzecia część sagi), a Sarah J. Maas ma na koncie 40 mln książek. Ale kto naprawdę to czyta? Okazuje się, że nie nastolatki, a dorosłe kobiety między 25 a 45 rokiem życia. Rozmawiamy o tym, skąd wziął się ten fenomen (od Owidiusza, przez „Zmierzch" i Harry'ego Pottera, po Wattpad i BookTok), dlaczego schemat „enemies to lovers" działa na nas tak mocno i, najważniejsze, czy te książki zmieniają nasze oczekiwania wobec prawdziwych związków.Rozmowa o miłości romantycznej, kliszach patriarchatu, kobiecej sprawczości, marketingu bestsellerów i o tym, jak czytać romanse mądrze. Na koniec Agnieszka poleca 5 książek dla tych, które pokochały ten gatunek.Agnieszkę Budnik znajdziecie tutaj: IG: https://www.instagram.com/raportzliteratury/podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/2VGOciq4sOFDpYbHi3n3kHmnie znajdziecie tu:IG: www.instagram.com/nataliakusiak o mnie: https://www.nataliakusiak.commój tajny podcast na herohero: https://herohero.co/pierwszarandka/

Naur! China's big box office winner this week was made on a shoestring budget. The plot is a dream about a cow, or a dream of a cow, or perhaps a cow's dream. The movie was praised for its "craftsmanship." According to data from Eventbrite, events advertising shared hobbies (think mahjong or birdwatching) as "meet cutes," or chances to meet potential romantic partners, increased by 117% over the last year. Fanfiction publishing platform Wattpad, a longtime haven for teens experimenting with fanfiction, updated its content guidelines.

Ana Huang spent years living a double life: international relations scholar, Georgetown grad, geopolitical consultant by day, and secret romance novelist by night. She quietly uploaded chapters to Wattpad under a pen name no one in her life knew, and kept writing even as she built a conventional career that would make her immigrant parents proud. On this episode of She Pivots, Ana shares how COVID cracked her life open, how she taught herself TikTok before BookTok was even a thing, and how she built a community of millions one chapter at a time, all while still clocking in at her day job. She talks about the moment she finally told her family the truth, why she said no to major publishers when Twisted Love blew up, and what it means to bet on yourself.

Aglaya Bore nos dice: Escribo porque el alma me lo pide. Porque hay voces en mi pecho que no saben callar, y mundos que nacen en la penumbra de mis pensamientos. No aprendí a escribir para ser leída, sino para sobrevivirme. Cada palabra que dejo en el papel es una huella de lo que fui, una promesa de lo que aún puedo ser. Autopublicarme fue como abrir una ventana en medio de una tormenta: arriesgado, sí, pero también necesario. Porque hay historias que no pueden esperar a que alguien les dé permiso para existir. Mis libros son espejos rotos, fragmentos de luz y sombra, ecos de mujeres que sueñan, que arden, que se buscan. Si alguna vez mis letras te rozan el alma, si te ves en alguna de mis páginas, entonces sabré que no escribí en vano. Con gratitud y fuego, Aglaya Bore Mis obras: Las cinco de Manacor (A la venta en todas las librerias online y Amazon) Autora e ilustradora. Gerda Taro, el último disparo (A la venta en todas las librerias online y Amazon) Autora. Lullaby Vibes (A la venta solo en Amazon) Autora. Golimda (con pseudonimo Asalia Kaf) (A la venta en todas las librerias online y Amazon) Autora. Microcuentos 1y2 (recopilación de webcómics) (A la venta en todas las librerias online y Amazon) Autora e ilustradora del segundo volumen. Publico en Wattpad, @AglayaBore y en Webtoon, Tapas y Mangatoon, como Microcuentos de Aglaya Bore o Tomoe Suyen. El punto de partida de este cuento es tan sencillo como perturbador: ¿qué ocurre cuando alguien siente que las miradas de los demás son una agresión constante? ¿Qué sucede cuando el miedo al juicio ajeno se convierte en una obsesión? ¿Y qué forma adopta ese resentimiento cuando encuentra algo sobrenatural dispuesto a alimentarlo? - Narración: Juan Carlos Albarracín - Locución Sintonía: Antonio Runa - Música: Epidemic Sound, con licencia - Imagen: Pixabay, con licencia https://pixabay.com/es/illustrations/ojos-bolas-de-ojo-iris-alumno-ver-7293504/ ------- Contrata tu IVOOX PREMIUM anual desde este enlace y además de obtener un suculento 50% de descuento y de poder escuchar TODOS los programas de esta plataforma sin publicidad, estarás ayudando a sostener Los Cuentos de la Casa de la Bruja: https://www.ivoox.vip/premium?affiliate-code=27e5799d254c8a29ecdab3d8d5bfa96f ------- Los Cuentos de la Casa de la Bruja es un podcast semanal de audio-relatos de misterio, ciencia ficción y terror.

The average reader need not go far in a bookstore before, knowingly or not, they encounter authors who started their careers by self-publishing prior to achieving commercial success. Examples include Margaret Atwood, Andy Weir, Colleen Hoover, Anna Todd, E. L. James, Scarlett St. Clair, and many more. Such stories of self-made writers are compelling and seem more attainable to others with the accessibility of modern publishing platforms such as Amazon, Apple, Google, Kobo, Wattpad, Webtoon, Radish, Inkitt, Qidian, Tapas, and Swoon Reads. However, in Inequalities of Platform Publishing: The Promise and Peril of Self-Publishing in the Digital Book Era (U Massachusetts Press, 2025) Claire Parnell uncovers in her examination of the two most popular—Amazon and Wattpad—these services in fact perpetuate systemic racial, gender, and sexual bias against authors of color and queer authors through their technological, economic, social, and cultural structures. At a time when there is a real reckoning with the discrimination that has resulted in publishing opportunities for only relatively few privileged authors—who are often White, upper class, and male—self-publishing presents itself as an equalizer of sorts. Exploring that idea, Parnell shows that these platforms are not just intermediaries for information; they structure content and users in multiple, often inequitable, ways through their ability to set market conditions and apply algorithmic sorting. Combining original interviews, walkthrough method, metadata analysis, and more, Parnell finds that self-publishing platforms reproduce challenges for authors from marginalized communities. Far from equalizing the market, the new platforms instead frequently perpetuate the stubborn barriers to mainstream success for BIPOC and queer authors. Learn more about your ad choices.

Se propone la creación de "espacios de silencio" en las ciudades, como parques o bibliotecas al aire libre, para desconectar del ruido, idea que recuerda a Javi la tranquilidad de la casa de su abuela. Se escucha 'A partir de hoy' de David Bisbal y Sebastián Yatra. Se informa sobre el hallazgo de una cocina 'Fagor electrodomésticos' de 1960, que sigue funcionando, mostrando la calidad de la marca.
