So I was manually testing emails forever and finaly found a better way. basically you find one verified email from the company (LinkedIn, press release, whatver) and then you can see their email pattern. like if you find [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]), you know everyone else is firstname.lastname@

the annoying part is verifying each email after. i was using hunter for this but started getting too many bounces on thier "valid" emails. tried a few others too - Apollo shows you the company email format which is nice but the data quality has been hit or miss for me. someone on my team mentioned Prospeo does somthing similar, might check that out next

plus my manager keeps asking why our outbound bounce rate is so high and im like bro the email verification tools are lying to us lol

anyone else have tricks for this? especially for companies that use weird formats like first initial + last name or that dreaded firstname.lastname.countrycode@ format

Hey all, I do Dynamics 365 CRM development and could use a few extra projects. If your team's backlog is piling up or you need a second pair of hands for a sprint or two, I can help.

What I work with:

• C# plugin development (custom business logic, validations)
• Power Automate flows + Power Apps
• Dataverse config/customization
• Microsoft Graph API integrations with D365
• SLA/KPI troubleshooting and fixes

Happy to jump into an existing codebase, take on a defined ticket batch, or handle a scoped integration piece. Flexible on hours — treat this as overflow capacity, not a full-time ask.

DM me or comment if you want to chat scope/rate.

I bought a web domain that begins www.ratemy....com. I'm told that I need to learn Drupal if I'm going to set it up because it requires people to create an account. I've taught myself softwares here and there, but this seems like it's a whole beast. Should I dive in or is there something easier? (I also need it to be very secure).

Thanks!

I’m trying to clean up what happens between finishing a discovery call and updating the CRM. Right now I usually end up with half a page of shorthand, then spend another 15---20 mins turning it into something the rest of the team can follow.

workflow I’m trying to get to is:

1. Record and transcribe the call.

2. Pull out pain points, budget, timeline, decision makers, objections and next steps.

3. Check anything related to pricing, dates or customer commitments.

4. Put the cleaned up version into the CRM and use it for the follow-up email.

The third step is where I’m stuck. AI note taking can turn “maybe in Q4 if security approves it” into “planning a Q4 rollout,” which looks harmless in a summary but changes the meaning once someone sees it in the pipeline.

Any advice on making this less manual without letting bad notes into the CRM would be appreciated. Thanks.

Looking out for a CRMs that supports native integrations with Lead Sources like Angi, Thumbtack etc.also focused on all the home services lead sources

Speed to lead engine where AI talks to the leads as soon as the lead comes, qualifies it and if no response nurture until qualification etc.

Any platforms does this and could you share the website links if yes

Made a CRM that doesn't cost a fortune per seat lol

So I've built a CRM and honestly the pricing in this space is kind of wild — most tools charge tens of thousands just to get a few seats going, and it scales up fast the second your team grows.

Mine's done and up and running — ₹5k a seat, that's it. No weird tiers, no "contact sales" nonsense, no paying for 15 features you'll never touch.

Nothing fancy marketing-wise here, just figured there are probably other founders/small teams out there stuck in the same boat — priced out of the big CRMs but still need something that actually works (leads, dashboards, basic reporting, role access, etc).

If that sounds like you, hit me up in the comments or DM, happy to walk you through it and show you around.

In the world of AI, would you buy or build a CRM if you had the option to do so.

Imagine you have your startup, 6 figures ARR, 200 clients, currently need basic datapoints.

Need to keep track of the following:
- accounts
- deals
- contacts
- email
- activities
- revenue

And most likely integrate other tech stack like slack, meeting notes, etc.
