I work at #Grafana and persuaded my marketing team to sponsor #emfcamp ... I was speaking to #Antithesis and also persuaded them to sponsor EMF Camp.

We spent £10k on sponsoring and all we got was a fedi post

@dee and extremely rad and cool sponsorship benefits that others should definitely follow your lead in purchasing

@dee ahhh so that’s how antithesis happened!! Thank you very much for driving both sponsorships

@joenash I drove the Grafana one as I feared I would be in a meeting when the ticket sales happened (I would've). The Antithesis one happened over dinner with their CRO. There's still time for me to bug Tailscale

I don't know how people at this level are supposed to behave, but in my mind you spend it on fun nerdy things like supporting emfcamp

@dee definitely correct behaviour! (Huge Tailscale fan, I’ll keep a tier warm for them

@dee your company is horrible. Please don't ask them to sponsor anything ever again.
@stonykark @dee any particular reason?
