Hi HN! I'm one of the creators of Slingshot, and we're excited (and nervous) to be posting this on HN.
Slingshot is a Chrome extension thats lets you email prospects while you’re browsing LinkedIn, all with keyboard shortcuts and without needing any context switching.
We built Slingshot because we were frustrated by how slow and tedious cold outbound is. Existing tools we looked at were either buggy, overbuilt for sales teams, or too expensive.
So we made Slingshot to be cheap, fast, and lightweight – perfect for founders who are evaluating an idea or trying to get more customers, but don’t want to break the bank. I'd love to hear HN's thoughts. Thanks!
Seems worth it. I've bumped into two people, face-to-face, whom I wanted later to connect... and somehow, the notes I took on the meeting, lacked the precise email. This would solve that form me.
