Finally! The world is getting intro'd to Carry 🙌 I've know about these folks for a while and been wildly impressed by what they're building...for one good/big reason: business+personal finance and wealth building for the self-employed with big aspirations and exit events is a massive area of fog for so many. Education is one thing; enablement is another. I love how Carry is attacking both...

Congrats, @bendell and team! This idea is very novel for this part of the industry. Speaker bureaus and whatnot exist, but that's usually not a great solution for founders and creators moving fast to organize a great event. Keep quality in mind as the network grows. Really excited to see what this turns into as I sense it has a lot of promise!

Oh wow, Butter is better than ever?! Yes please! ☺️ My team and I at SPI have been using (and loving!) Butter to enhance our community programming. Our members love it and, increasingly, want us to run events via Butter instead of Zoom. For community-first companies like ours, I'm so grateful to @mrchrisholm and team for all the care they're putting into this product. Keep up the buttery goodness 😛

Congrats @ankurnagpal, Jess, and team! Can't wait to dig into this new resource. My gosh, why didn't this exist when I first got into startups 😛 Understanding, even mastering, business finance is not only a strength to develop for entrepreneurs, it's also a competitive advantage because—let's be real—many (most?) entrepreneurs don't develop this powerful skill set. Thrilled that Ocho Money is...

It’s remarkable to see how far this product has come since that very first instructor cohort two years ago. Couldn’t be prouder of the team…and not just for the tech but also (and arguably more so) for *actually* caring about helping, supporting, and preparing their instructors to succeed with cohort-based live learning! Beyond the five makers listed here, a special shout-out to Jonah, whose a...

Finally, it's here! Been waiting for this day for a while. Maybe is exactly what wealth-minded folks, especially founders/entrepreneurs (IMHO), need/deserve to have in their arsenal. Big props to @shpigford, @travis_woods, and team. Really proud of what they've created...and it's only just the beginning (duh) ☺️

Bravo @drewdil and team! You all are solving real problems in the community space, which clearly isn't slowing down anytime soon. Proud to be using it at SPI and excited for where this is going. The ceiling is high!

@derrickreimer Excited to see this big update! The SPI team and I continue to love the product. Can't wait to see what you have in store next 🙂

My partner, @patflynn, and I spent oodles of time evaluating membership and community platform options for our new community for growth-minded entrepreneurs (SPI Pro). Most options presented one-size-fits-all models on how to build a community. Such "community in a box" approaches may be great for some creators, but not us. Circle was the only option that empowered us to structure and configure...

Hey PH friends! It's a thrill and honor to launch today to you all 😊 As @patflynn mentioned above, Fusebox is a BIG upgrade to a product (and company) we've been working on for a while. "Yesterday", we were a niche WordPress-based podcast player, and that was it. The product solved problems and added value to podcasters like us. We amassed a small and loyal following. It was fun. But last...

The Kickstarter campaign became fully funded in a day, wow! Looks like the community has a lot of hope for this product. Pros: Very utilitarian design that appears to have a lot of good practical use cases. Excited to receive mine! Cons: Nothing at this time. Excited to see how this performs in the wild and how the creators receive and implement feedback.

I'm so excited for this book to reach the world because I know the author has put an enormous amount of care and value into it. In full disclosure, I know Mike and spoke with him several times about this book during its development. It was self-evident to me then that this book would be a great asset and advantage to startup folks. There's no reason not to get this book, especially today since...

My friend and creative partner Dustin Tevis just shared this find with me, and it rather blows my mind. In my humble opinion, most standup tables/desks are horrifically ugly and less-than-ideal for creative pros with multitudinous devices. While by no means cheap (€ 1,899), this table/desk appears to finally get it right—and by "it" I mean (a) form-factor, (b) integrations, (c)...

The more that the publishing industry is being disrupted by self-publishing alternatives, micro-publishers, direct-to-reader business models and the like, the more these types of web tools add value and empowerment to authors. I'm proud to say (by means of a disclosure) that I work with the Booklaunch team. They really care about the business/platform needs of authors. Launching books...

If you're anything like me, you can always benefit from improving the efficiency of your sales workflow. It remains one of my largest business challenges. So I'm pretty pumped to put Proposable through its paces. I just signed up for the free 14-day trial in the hopes that this product can bring much needed relief to the time-consuming drudgery of writing, sending, tracking, and closing...
