Hahaha ..That makes sense on revenue. Totally agree it can get patchy for private companies.
On the LinkedIn signal though, if Iβm being honest, direct complaints about market leaders (like HubSpot or Salesforce in this case) might be pretty rare, especially publicly. Most teams donβt openly call out tools unless something is seriously broken. This might work better with market challengers though.
I tried something adjacent: mapping their tech stack β pulling corresponding G2 profiles β and using customer sentiment as a proxy for dissatisfaction. Didnβt work as well as I expected. Might be a prompting issue, or maybe just too indirect as a signal. Still tinkering with it. Will share if I get it to work.
Feels like the opportunity is still there, just needs a tighter way to capture implicit dissatisfaction vs explicit complaints.
