What's a piece of work from the last year you're proud of? Don't polish it yet, just tell me what happened.I ran Trove's first in-person event at Boston Tech Week. A 50-person, no-pitch morning panel on what happens to top tech talent in the age of AI.What was your part in it, and how did you know it worked? A number helps if you have one.We're pre-seed, so we couldn't outspend anyone. I bet on content: landed Mike Gutner, Sharon Pollard and Kelley Morse for the panel, picked a venue that fit the brand, capped the room. 150+ RSVPs, waitlist closed early, full house.That's the story. Here's a first draft, in your words. Change anything that doesn't sound like you.Artifact draft — A content first brand play event at Boston's first Tech WeekLet others back it up

Trove · CMOEPErin PhinneyA content first brand play event at Boston's first Tech Week
Ran Trove's first in-person event at Boston Tech Week 2026: a 50-person, no-pitch morning panel on what happens to the top tech talent in the age of AI, through the lens of Boston's top people leaders. As a pre-seed startup we were not going to outspend the larger players in the city, so we focused on the one thing we could do better than anyone else: content. Over 150 RSVPs, the waitlist closed early, attendance at capacity. Three panelists plus a moderator. No exhibition table, no paid speaker slots, no company pitches.

Trove · CMOThe AI workflow for intelligent content briefs (for a non-writer CMO)
I'm currently a marketing team of one, and not a writer by trade. But I run marketing for a pre-seed startup, so I need to be writing. So this was the perfect time to test how AI can improve my content planning and efficiency. I built a content brief skill and scheduled prompt that lands in my inbox every Monday and Thursday at 8:07am.

Questions
NJAsked by Nelson JoyceWhat are you using to transcribe meetings to feed into Claude?
EPAnswered by Erin PhinneyGoogle meet gives me full transcriptions, but you could also get those through zoom or granola depending on your tier (or another tool). I also use granola and have that linked for key notes and quotes.
The problem
Résumés limit.
Social networks are performative.
Proof is scattered.
Real stories have layers, not a single bullet point.
What can't be faked, who can't be generated, before you need it
What can't be faked
The decision you made at 11pm. The colleague you pulled through. The experiments that led the project to success. The messy middle parts that make you good at your job aren't the parts that fit on a profile.
Who can't be generated
Your manager. The PM next to you. The client who sent the thank-you you still have screenshotted. They saw what went into it. Real people who witnessed your work.
Before you need it
A promotion. A dream role. A conversation that changes everything. When every profile reads the same, your real story, backed by real people, is what gets you chosen.
