Why isn't there a bravado for every industry

A vertical community where people get their questions answered, can post and apply for jobs seems broadly useful.

Could a platform like bravado exist for many more industries?

You described LinkedIn

In all seriousness, the only way it works is if you have a dedicated community with a general theme and self-propelling content creation. Not GPT.

With some kind of baked-in rewards system like we have.

Most other industries have their outlets. Bravado is filling the void in the Sales industry.

Except Product Managers. Thereโ€™s no place for them anywhere.

Car ownership groups have clubs. Political factions have communications platforms. Even labor unions have forums.

Product managers. Nope. Shit out of luck.

You're overestimating the amount of work Sahil does compared to the users.

One Bravado to rule them all, one Bravado to find them, One Bravado to bring them all, and in the sales craft bind them; In the Land of corporations where the shadows lie.

I was just thinking about this. I'm aware of one for CSMs but know there are others.

I think the unique thing about Bravado is that it's anonymous and still somehow people are nice and not complete A holes (with a few exceptions now and then)
Other communities I've seen are either not anonymous or it descends into chaos as people can hide who they are and be jerks.

Its hard to think of a career choice where people need to help each other as much as sales. Either to vent about a client or work through an issue to hit quota or celebrate presidents clubs

It could work for other industries as there's other outlets like discord/github/reddit for folks.
Would be a little wild to see a Bravado like site for only folks in C Suite

Dilute too much and you have an echo chamber instead of a valuable broad community.

There practically already is a Bravado for every industry. Sectors are rather siloed already and there are function based groups already.
