Context
PaperTube was mentioned briefly during the weekly leadership sync as one of several active pipeline opportunities. No proposal details, scope, or pricing were discussed — the note was that Mark believes he has the re-engagement moving in the right direction.
This opportunity is part of a broader pipeline of 6–8 deals Mark is working, 4 of which have active proposals out. Given November's projected revenue shortfall ($85k projected vs. costs), closing re-engagements like PaperTube carries added urgency.
Next Steps
- [ ] Mark to confirm re-engagement status and determine whether a proposal is needed
- [ ] If moving forward, create a scoping conversation and proposal
