PreGrab

PreGrab is a venture that wants to tap into the pre-owned products market. We have kicked off from being a market-place for dealers of pre-owned products and will be primarily focusing on the needs of the buyers of these products. Once having established ourselves in our core business competencies, we aim to expand into B2B and C2C avenues. The problem we aim to solve is of the lack of reliability and visibility of these products from a buyer’s viewpoint. All the present arrangements in the market (online and offline) fail to provide these deliverables leaving the market highly untapped and the core problem unsolved.

Nimisha, our Marketing lead, quit her job at EY to join Topmate.



People manifest a job in big4 while she chose to quit it and join our startup. 

But why? 

✔ In Topmate, we offer a steep learning curve, requiring employees to wear multiple hats and interact across different fields to make informed decisions.

✔ Startups like Topmate involve problem-solving, adaptability, and a sense of ownership, which can be empowering for those who want to build something from the ground up.

Her contribution in my company also means a lot to me because:

-She joined us on February 6 and has since witnessed many of our campaigns with great results. 

📍 The campaign "Chapter 1: Inception of the Topmate Time Capsule" was launched on February 21, 10 days after she joined. The campaign gave us the insane results like:
> 300+ topmate stories, 
> 250+ referrals, 
> & 3000+ interactions on our landing page
 
Thank you for being a part of our team, Nimisha. 🙌🏻

Do you also want to be a part of crazy team? We are hiring content writers and designers!

Abhijit left his dream company Amazon, to work with us.

People work hard to join top companies like Amazon, Google, Microsoft, etc.
But he left to join us.

But why did this happen?
After working on 3 startups and 1 MNC, Abhijit knew the value and growth that came with startups.

He worked at Amazon for three years starting in 2020. But then, due to a lack of feeling growth, he wanted to switch it and started preparation for the UPSC.

But being active on LinkedIn, he checked that our team had posted a hiring post at a topmate.io; there was an assignment he completed and got selected for an interview.

We were a new startup at that time so he wanted to join looking at the growth opportunity.

Next, he got selected and without any double thought, he quit his exam preparations and joined us.

Fast-forward to today, here’s what he thinks about working here:

> There is no starting time or ending time, you can work according to your comfort zone.
> No one micromanages here; the company believes in a positive team culture.
> Full flexibility and scope of learning.

What a journey, right?

Oh btw, we are looking for more rockstars for different roles at Topmate!  (Check out our company page for more details)

Ipsita, a personal development coach, made her life super easy by this one thing. 

Guess what?

Topmate's recording feature!

Now before you think "What a clickbait", let me briefly explain to you why. 

Ipsita is a personal development coach. She has 480k Instagram followers as well as a newsletter.

As a coach, she must provide a recording of her calls to her clients. With Topmate’s recording feature, this happened seamlessly. 

If you receive a booking from Topmate, we will not only record it but also promptly distribute it to your audience.

In addition to this, you can also reap other benefits, such as:
> You can easily use your recording session as your information product.
> You can use it to upsell your services.

Isn’t it amazing? 

Have you also used our recording feature?

$27,480 in revenue? 
Wait. We've got a success story that'll knock your socks off! 


One of our users raked in $27,480 in revenue this week by selling her course through topmate.io


Initially, the course was capped at 34 people. But guess what? The demand was so insane, that she had to pull up extra chairs and extend the invite list to 50! And we don't wonder that it was a full house.


We've been shouting about our features from every virtual rooftop we can find.

We've been shouting about our features from every virtual rooftop we can find.


Hehe, but we also feed every inch of doubt about it. Hence, we worked on improving our features. 

-Our landing page now has a distinction between the base price and the premium tier price and the associated benefits. 


 A lot of people also doubted and called us scammers, lately, because of a slight delay in their payment. 


-We were facing some issues due to a sudden surge in the volume of transactions, thereby raising regulatory concerns for us. But, we have sorted it out and we are back even stronger to deal with it. 


Thanks to everyone who supported us throughout. 


It's because of your support that we have got 19,155+ bookings, 2552 unique experts and 5159 paid bookings this week. 


Our team pulled off late nights fueled by caffeine, heated debates, and moments of brainstorming only to provide you with a seamless user experience. 


So, don't forget all the awesome things that topmate can do for you! 😉

$27,480 in ONE WEEK with just 3 EMAILS

Do you remember the last time I told you about the success story of one of our users?

Yes, she has recently sold her $750 bootcamp in just 7 days with only 3 emails.

How, you ask? 

She used our email marketing feature to reach out to her audience. All she did was to update the contact details of her audience, customise the email templates for her bootcamp in her topmate.io profile, and get ready for a BLAST. 

Her bootcamp was initially capped at 34 people but the crazy demand for her course made her allow 20 more people to join in. And, no wonder it was a houseful in just 7 DAYS. 

17 out of the total 54 bookings and around $10,000 of her revenue came just from our email marketing feature. 

We didn’t really promote her service on our socials but the craze was so high with only 3 emails that we had to cancel a number of bookings and refund the money. 

I am sure that the results might have taken you out of the world. Haha, the same happened with us, when we had to restrict the participation limit.

Don’t trust us? 
Try it out. We are sure, you’ll love it

I have been on over 500 calls till now asking creators to try topmate.io and guess what, 


I have been ghosted countless times by them!  

"I will get back to you soon." is one of the most common responses when people are not interested in your services.  

As a  professional, it is frustrating when your promising prospects fail to convert into clients, even after an engaging initial conversation. 

And it hurts even more when they ghost you without giving any reason. 
 
Here are four key factors to consider:
 
1⃣Misaligned sales and marketing: If your sales and marketing teams aren't in sync, your prospects may be receiving mixed messages. Ensure open communication and shared understanding of the ideal customer profile and lead qualification criteria.

2⃣Lack of customer understanding: Don't assume you know your prospects' needs. Take the time to truly listen and ask insightful questions to uncover their unique challenges and requirements. This will help you provide tailored solutions.

3⃣Credibility gap: If prospects don't trust your advice or believe you have their best interests in mind, they'll hesitate to commit. Focus on building rapport and demonstrating your expertise, not just closing the deal.

4⃣High-pressure sales tactics turn off prospects: Position yourself as a helpful guide, not a salesperson on a mission.
 
By addressing these common pitfalls, you can create a more transparent, customer-centric sales process that builds trust and addresses your prospects' real needs. 
 
This will not only improve your conversion rates but also foster long-term, mutually beneficial relationships.

After I started keeping the above things in mind, I have seen an exponential increase in the conversion rate. 

What else do you think puts off a prospect during the call? 
Your opinion is valuable!

A few weeks back I did something crazy and got an insane response from it!



I announced our new feature 'AI twin'.

AI is influencing almost every field.
In 2024, how can the Topmate fall behind in leveraging AI?

Here are the following advantages you can have if you are using Topmate’s AI Twin feature:

> It will answer questions on your behalf to your audience

> Your audience will be engaged
> It will help you in monetising your knowledge & personality.

All you have to do is fill out this form to apply for your twin: https://lnkd.in/gZRsCWuH. 
 
We will attach your LinkedIn profile to your topmate; our AI feature can crawl your profile and give the best answer to your prospect.
 
It’s just that easy, and you can double your efficiency with very little effort.
 
We're really excited about this new AI-powered capability and would love to hear your feedback after trying it out. 
 
Tried this feature yet? Share your feedback for our audience in the comments, it would mean a lot to us. :)

#topmate #ai #artificialintelligence

Alert: Just leveraging this one feature can improve sales of your webinar by 80% & booking conversions by 25%. 💹


Yes, we are back with one more feature: session recordings.

Most of our users are either creators or coaches; they used to provide recordings to their clients for future use.

This is why we introduced this feature on the topmate.io platform itself, just to make our user's lives easier. And the response we got was insane!

Here's how you can use it to your advantage: Most creators charge high for the recordings and later on also use it as an info product and sell at a nominal price.

For example, if your 1:1 session is priced at $200 and recording at $10, you can offer the combined offering for $210.

You can experiment with different pricing and bundling strategies and earn more via recordings. 

Sounds good? 

Btw, do you also ask for recordings after attending any online session?
