I reached 1,000 Twitter followers today, which I know is nothing crazy, but it means a lot that people (mostly ones I don't know and a few that I do) tune in to hear my ramblings about email, marketing, ecommerce, etc etc Next on the list is that blue check mark 😏

As far as brands that are nailing lifecycle marketing go, The Sill is usually at the top of the list, but imagine how much more effective this would be as an ACTUAL quiz that allowed them to collect customer data and use it to personalize future emails

When you do podcast out reach to a *female founder* podcast and they turn you down because you don't have any public milestones like, "has raised X in funding." Success is NOT defined based on how much you've raised. Hey media - COVER BOOTSTRAPPED BRANDS!

Warby Parker, Dollar Shave Club, Casper—these DTC darlings established a playbook that anyone who wanted to start their own business could get on board with. For $100, you could buy a web domain & an ecomm platform subscription, and be well on your way to building your own brand

Just thinking about how so many events happening in ecomm lately—the potential TikTok ban, the unexpected surge in Meta CPMs—all reinforce the importance of investing in owned channels (website, email list, SMS list) you can fall back on when third-party platforms are unreliable
