Netlify Talking Points
  • Mel β€” you sold this platform. You know the instant-deploy, branch-preview story better than any prospect brief can tell it
  • The Netlify she sold is even stronger now: AI-generated pages, composable CMS integrations, and enterprise SSO all shipped since 2023
  • For Linear's startup GTM motion, Netlify enables campaign pages that launch in hours, not sprint cycles
  • Branch previews = stakeholder review without staging servers β€” her design and copy teammates can approve live before merge
  • Happy to give her a 'what's new since 2023' walkthrough β€” the platform has shipped a lot
LinkedIn Engagement Flow
Step 1
Engage content – like or comment on a recent post about startup GTM, web-led growth, or developer marketing. Signal presence before the direct approach.
Step 2
Publish post – share the suggested draft below, tagging or mentioning Linear. Creates ambient awareness.
Step 3
Direct connect – send connection request referencing your post and her Netlify tenure β€” she knows the product, this is a reunion not a pitch.
