Absolutely spectacular session on 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘂𝗽 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗜 𝗘𝗿𝗮 at Austin Tech Week this morning! Aileen Allen Lisa Roberts and Nick Bhavsar dropped some deep knowledge bombs and it was privilege to share the stage with them. We also got so many great questions and engagement from the crowd. Thank you Lauren Sell for letting me fill in for you! Key Takeaways: 📘 The playbook has changed. Run GTM like a software product - work fast by cutting scope and executing programs in campaigns that are small in scope so you can see results and iterate. The world is changing too fast to run long, slow legacy GTM motions. 🤝 Sales, Marketing, and CS silos break your go-to-market. Unified GTM is necessary to win in 2025. 👫 Teams are smaller and leveraging more agencies, consultants, and fractional support than ever before. 🧰 Generalist rule the day. Wether you are hiring FTEs, 1099s, agencies, or consultants, look for smart people who can problem solve and wear many hats. No one has "10 years of AI experience" you need folks who are curious, learn fast, and can "draw the owl" (as we'd say in my days at Twilio) ⭐️ You are not behind. There are too many AI tools to try them all. Focus on a problem to solve and use AI to help you do that. Don't beat yourself up over all the cool kids at the LinkedIn Lunch table who seem to have time to master every new AI technology. You're trying to run a business, not be the next AI influencer.

Property Management Companies (PMCs) are not only responsible for compliance with federal laws, but state and local laws that each have their own standard of compliance. Take complexity and multiply it 50-fold for national organizations with properties throughout the U.S.A. Mid-market and local PMCs do not have it any easier. Just because they may be under a fewer number of laws and regulations, depending on the size of their organization and the resources at their disposal, the amount of complexity could be equally weighted with that of larger organizations. Case-in-point, a number of recent regulations that impact property management companies in California. Whether a larger organization with properties in The Golden State, or a local operator, quickly taking the law and applying to operations requires urgency and understanding. This is what makes InCheck® by SiteCompli® special. It scales. And it helps normalize complexities so site teams, no matter the size, are equipped for success to execute consistently, owner/operators ensure compliance, and residents get the experience they deserve.

Growth rarely feels comfortable, but raising $40,000 to support the local community makes it all worth it. And with that, another successful Aloha Fishing Tournament and PTC is in the books for fifteenfortyseven Critical Systems Realty (1547). ✅ This year’s tournament raised $40,000 to support IT education and workforce development across Hawaii. 1547 owns and operates two data centers on O'ahu, AlohaNAP and now DRFortress, LLC, so being able to give back to that community in a tangible way means a lot. Seeing the industry come together to create real impact is what makes the effort behind it meaningful. And there is a lot of effort behind it. If I’m being completely honest, this one pushed us. Kate Moomaw and I joke that PTC ages us a little every year, and this year was no exception. Anyone who works in marketing or event management knows events rarely unfold quietly. It comes with the territory, no matter the company or industry. It truly takes a team. Kate was a huge part of making it all happen, and we could not have done it without the incredible DRFortress team in Hawaii, who showed up in a big way before, during, and after the event. Every year, we walk away with lessons and ideas to make the tournament and everything around PTC even better. Growth rarely happens without pressure. But when it’s over, you see what it creates. Stronger partnerships. Deeper connections. Real momentum. That is why we do it. We are already locking in sponsorships for next year’s tournament, so reach out soon if you're interested in getting involved. There are only so many boats at the basin 😉 Already looking forward to January 16, 2027. 🤙🎣 #1547Realty #DRFortress #AlohaNAP #AlohaFishingTournament #FishingForFutures #CommunityImpact #HawaiiTech #PTC26 #DataCenters #DigitalInfrastructure #Interconnection #Marketing #Events

Pete Pickerill, Co-founder of Liquibase, discusses his background in Austin’s tech scene and the company’s mission to automate database changes. Recognizing that databases lagged behind other DevOps practices, Liquibase emerged to bring automation, security, and consistency to database deployments. As AI and machine learning increase demand for high-quality, well-managed data, teams with strong database DevOps practices are more prepared. According to Liquibase’s latest report, 78% of respondents struggle with AI-driven data challenges, often due to limited training.
