Sorry for slow reply, but BVA knows that I'm just finishing week 2 with a newborn, so it's a little cuckoo for cocoa puffs over here.
Your system sounds so well thought-out, <@U09G5HH6L2F> - thank you for sharing.
I think BVA thought to tag me since I'm focused on helping people do knowledge work (writing, coding, designing) faster and more effectively. We have an app that helps people get into flow states for 1-3 hours at a time, etc.

Was quite happy to read this about our esteemed leader...and soon to be father of two!

oh, that rabble-rouser @Brian Von Ancken is at it again! ❤️
<@U090MDXE7R9> - I've had some luck with podcasts - they seem to have a more authentic connection with their audiences than, say, most IG or TT influencers.

Schedule it through Nick's Lunacal.

❤️u, BVA.

Bri -
My refund department here at Norton accidentally sent you a $4,000 refund instead of a $400 refund so if you could just run down to Target and wire me $3,600 of gift cards, we'll be all square. Thanks.

I fell for it in May, too.
Maybe we need a secret handshake or a codeword.
I nominate "air jerky."

My teachers always suspected that I had a manifesto in me...they just didn't know who would tease it out of me.
You're the one, B! Thank you.

@Brian Von Ancken that would be an EXCELLENT and HIGH-PRIORITY sesh. Thank you. See you tonight, birthday boy.

Oh, hey - thanks for tagging me, BVA!
Yes, <@U08PVRSN88G> - I am around. - lemme know your schedule.

"I'm jus' sayin," said the kid in the corner with crumbs on his chin, "don't judge."

Does anyone have a recommendation for how to stop eating this damn beef jerky snack thing that @Sonja Manning makes? It's freaking addictive and delicious like a good potato chip. Been coding and went through 2 bags without batting an eye. Y'all were warned.
#events-and-visibility-opps - April 30, 2025 at 02:03 AM
Congrats! I'll be on our Babymoon in Greece so I'm sorry I'll miss it. Have fun!
#events-and-visibility-opps - April 24, 2025 at 02:18 PM
What a generous thought, @Yuli Ziv - I'll DM you.
Thanks for the tag, @Brian Von Ancken.

Hey - Just wanted to recognize @Nao Yukawa who just very generously walked me through some great growth hacks in Reddit post-our group Zoooom. Thank you, Nao, and thank you @Brian Von Ancken for creating this space; it has been immeasurably helpful for me & Sukha.
#asks-offers-advice - April 22, 2025 at 05:53 PM
I'm down to learn, help, whatever is necessary. Just LMK.
#asks-offers-advice - April 22, 2025 at 05:46 PM
@Nao Yukawa - I'd love to hear your thoughts if you're open to sharing! BVA is right that I was listening to someone last year but I think his strategies were more effective in "old Reddit" before the Huffman IPO re-working.
#announcements - April 02, 2025 at 08:08 PM
I will reply to it to help with deliverability.
#announcements - April 02, 2025 at 08:07 PM
Same here.
#events-and-visibility-opps - March 06, 2025 at 02:00 AM
Hey, @Ben Ende - I'll be at Seth's premiere on Friday night at the Paramount, so DM me if you'll be there! Afterparty at the Proper.
#asks-offers-advice - March 05, 2025 at 02:49 PM
Nice work. Hope it's a great launch for you. I upvoted.
#events-and-visibility-opps - March 03, 2025 at 09:54 PM
@Lara Hemeryck - I'm in Austin - happy to meet and/or help you out.
#linkedin-boosts - March 01, 2025 at 09:40 PM
Beautifully produced and informative (if a little long). Had to watch on 2x speed.
#asks-offers-advice - March 01, 2025 at 09:28 PM
@Tom Barten This is an incredibly thoughtful AND HELPFUL way to think through this. I'm really grateful for you and to @Brian Von Ancken for this group. Have a great weekend, y'all. I'm going to go rethink my drink.
#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 08:37 PM
Fantastic help. Thank you @Meg Donovan and @Nao Yukawa 🙂
#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 08:18 PM
Thanks, @Nao Yukawa. Have you primarily been paying the influencers by content or by traffic or via affiliate revenue? Or a combo?
#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 05:11 PM
Question for anyone who has a POV on the relative traction they have gotten with these 3 channels. All I need is a quick 1, 2 or 3 in the thread, if you can graciously spare the time.
If you were to select which of these three paid channels gave you the highest-quality of new customer traffic (i.e. high-intent, low-churn) for a wellness product (CPG or SaaS), which one would you pick:
- social media ads (LI, IG, TT, FB, et al.)
- influencer posts in social
- newsletters and/or podcast ads
#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 05:01 PM
@Albe Tremblay - Dr. Von Trapp is right - I'm in ATX those dates and happy to connect and/or answer any questions about Austin. DM me if you want to chat.
#asks-offers-advice - February 27, 2025 at 04:50 PM
I have not, but I know a founder who specializes in algorithmically sourcing TT creators, if that's of interest.
