This episode features an interview with Calen Holbrooks, VP of Demand Gen at Airtable, the no-code app platform that empowers people closest to the work to accelerate their most critical business processes. 

In this episode, Calen shares with us how she thinks about “big C and little c community” and why it is important to invest in, even when it is harder to measure. She also dives into her approach to accessible content and how they increased their conversion rates through a homepage refresh.

Key Takeaways:

  • We know that people are consuming content in a binge-like format; we should let them binge! While sales’ desire to gate content is understandable, ungating is a no-brainer, especially given all of the data we have now. 
  • Investing in community pays dividends and drives intent. While some community investments are more measurable than others, it doesn’t mean you should not invest in those less-measurable communities. 
  • The homepage is crucial, and refreshing it to tweak the way Airtable told their story resulted in a 25 percent conversion increase.
