Mike Leonard

Vivek Sodera

“As a tech founder and investor, my superpower is my ability to build and deepen relationships with other founders, investors, and executives. It's essential for me to always be 'in the know', and Ren has been my secret weapon to stay on top of updates and other news within my network.”
Randall Winn
Managing Partner, 22C Capital • Founder, Capital IQ
“Ren finds current news related to my entire network across email, phone, calendar, CRM, and social and identifies opportunities for me to reach out and connect with individuals in my complete ecosystem of relationships.”
Eric Joseph
Partner, Heidrick & Struggles
“I am blown away by the accuracy of how relevant the Ren alerts are to me. Rather than me having to search for news on people in my network, Ren does the work for me and allows me to be proactive and strategic.”
Greg Culver
Senior Vice President, CBRE
“Starting the day with Ren is a helpful way to keep current with contacts and gives ample opportunities to reach out to clients and prospects. Simply put, I'm better at business development with Ren.”
Justin Smith
Senior VP, SIOR - Lee & Associates
“I look forward to reviewing Ren updates every morning. It provides me with real time information only in contacts that I’m tracking in my Salesforce CRM. As a result I’m more informed about my existing and prospective clients. Oftentimes a Ren update sparks action and makes it easy to reach out.”
Sean P. Ward
Executive Vice President at CBRE
“Phenomenal tool. I opened Ren this morning, sent two emails, got two meetings set. One previous client, one new client.Time spent = three minutes. Unreal.”
Jeff Eggers
Founder, Risk & Return • Special Asst. to the President, National Security
“Ren identifies those people within my network who are most relevant at any given time and curates updates that are timely and meaningful. Given the importance of relationships, the power of Ren as a time-saving tool to enhance the quality of relationships is incredibly valuable.”
Eric Turner
Managing Director and Principal Broker, JLL
“I start my morning reading updates from Ren. Ren allows me to reach out to clients and prospects in relevant ways that would not have happened otherwise, which results in deeper connections and new business opportunities.”
Hartley Schwartz
Head of Business Development, Kay Finance
“Genius! Just booked a call with a lead that I have been trying to get back on a call for over 10 months using Ren!”
Mike Metzger
EVP, Industrial Real Estate, JLL
“Ren has swiftly become my indispensable daily companion, seamlessly navigating the labyrinth of information overload for my business. Its ability to distill relevant news and enable meaningful connections with clients is truly transformative.”
Kevin Black
Partner, 22C Capital
“I now use Ren as a primary source of professional news. It’s all relevant to people and companies I know, and most news I care about professionally involves companies and people I have some connection with.”
Kelly Silverman
SVP, CBRE
“Ren has become as ritualistic as morning coffee; it's my first daily read. It makes it easy to stay connected to such a vast network of contacts and celebrate others successes and milestones.”
Drew Storr
Managing Director at Coda Search
“A response almost immediately! For context, this is a contact I have messaged many times with no response. Big win!”
Joe Prendergast
Account Manager, Bullpen
“Ren has been a game-changer when it comes to understanding relevant news events impacting my prospects. Without Ren, I risk missing context on how to best approach outreach. For example, Ren recently alerted me of negative news impacting a key prospect which significantly changed my outreach approach. This unintended benefit prevented me from coming across as insensitive.”
Peter Cecora
Senior Managing Director, JLL
“I use Ren each morning to stay up to date on my clients and prospects. It’s very valuable to be able to go to one source for important events rather than having to go to multiple news sources.”
Craig Cerretani
Co-Founder, Longfellow Benefits
“As a long time sales/marketing guy in financial services, I was a very early adopter of LinkedIn. LinkedIn has been most important to our growth at Longfellow Benefits and subsequent sale to Arthur J. Gallagher. As I’ve adopted Ren, I’ve come to realize it is an irreplaceable additive to LinkedIn. The data gleaned there is even more robust. Well done!”
David Murphy
Executive Vice President at CBRE
“Ren provides an efficient way to stay in front of prospects. A few clicks have generated several meetings and will lead to new business opportunities. Well worth it!”
