Gerard Compte AKA The Man Who Sends Emails With Love ❤️
Manage episode 312544571 series 3237455
Want to hear about my first "Growth Hack"?
It all starts with Roel De Cock, in 2017.
One of Belgium most critically acclaimed videographers.
He came to me with an odd request.
"There's no place for Belgian Video
Creators to hang out online."
The sole forum had long been abandoned.
He wanted to build a Facebook group.
He'd be the Video Guy; I'd be the marketing guy.
"Sure, let's do it!"
We knew how to run a group.
But we didn't know where to find the Videographers.
Since there was no community.
That's when I found Findthatlead.
Now here was a tool that allowed me to quickly and easily find the emails of all videographers in Belgium.
Before I knew it,
I was LinkedIn messaging people en masse, inviting them to be in the group.
(little known fact, you can find LinkedIn profile URL's with findthatlead, lied a bit about that on LinkedIn)
Within a month, we had the biggest group for Belgian Video Creators.
Today it has 1,107 members and multiple posts every day.
It was only last year that I met CEO and Founder of FindThatLead.
Gerard Compte the man who sends emails with love.
The man who got me addicted to growth.
It's an honor to interview him here today.
