Where to find data engineers in order to convert them to customers

The idea that helps Data Engineers

Data Engineers want to efficiently store and manage large volumes of data. However, they can't get it because they struggle with the complexity of setting up and maintaining data warehouses.

Therefore, they need to use your solution, e.g. DataVault.

Simplified Data Warehousing Solution : DataVault is an innovative data warehousing solution that simplifies the process of storing and managing large volumes of data for data engineers, allowing them to focus on data analysis rather than infrastructure setup. Of course it is much better than the stuff from Snowflake, Redshift, or BigQuery!

How to find Data Engineers

You can get insights about the pain points of data engineers if you listen to them carefully, either in person or online. Listening online is much easier because you need not ask them for a customer interview but you can observe them talking about their problems, out there in their natural habitat. They won’t even notice that you are there, watching and listening to them.

The process, step by step

One process that we can totally recommend is this:

  • Find out where data engineers hang out (Reddit, Mastodon, etc.)
  • Read what problems they talk about, and how urgent they are to them. (Did they try any solutions, yet? Did they spend money on anything, yet? Did they even cobble a homegrown solution together?)
  • Enter the conversation: Help them with tips, ask more about their situation and why they are in pain.
  • If you find recurring questions or pet peeves of data engineers, create some helpful content for them (e.g. a blog post, a podcast episode, or a video) and share it with them for free, in the same conversations. They will be delighted.
  • At the end of the blog post, invite them to use your solution: Simplified Data Warehousing Solution.

I described the process here in my blog post: Identify a hungry audience.

If you do this manually, it may take you hours each day. Automate it, with a little help from the AI in CustomerPing!
