A question for those of you who belong to a Slack community

I'm thinking about building a free bot to scratch an itch that I have but I'm not sure if I'm alone. Problem People spend all their time in their company's workspace in Slack but belong to many community workspaces. Unless you are diligent about switching to your other workspaces you miss out on conversations you care about. When you do switch workspaces you see expired conversations. Over time you disengage. Solution The bot connects your community workspaces to your primary workspace. You choose what channels in these communities you care about and we send updates to your primary workspace throughout the day. This will benefit community members by letting them stay connected to the conversations that matter to them and community managers by driving engagement. Would you use this? Does the problem it is solving resonate?

How do you find your first (beta) enterprise customers/testers?

Hi Makers! I'm working on a tool aimed at medium to large companies (100+ employees). My tool is still in its infancy and I'm looking for beta users in the enterprise world to test it and help us build. So my question is, how do you go about finding them when you are so early stage? What are your strategies? What's your pitch like?

Pitch Practice

Does anyone know a good site or bay area meetup where you can safely practice your pitch and get feedback. Not some shark tank thing in front of investors, just a friendly group who are all trying to refine their pitch.
