Because they haven’t discovered Basecamp yet

I just recently switched my newsletter from Mailchimp to ConvertKit. I really like CK so far and highly recommend it. A couple of positives:

• The automation rules and ability to set email flows is a…

I agree. I'll test it out, but not sure if I'll 100% move. Using Apple mail with a Google mail custom domain is working fine at the moment.

We shall see...

I had two critiques on the HEY app but one was recently fixed. First, I'm glad they just added the "quick action menu" on all pages of the app. That makes things way more smooth to navigate.

The one…

I did use Rebrandly for an SMS marketing campaign for a client earlier last year and thought they were great for what they offered. The only downside for me was that they are based in Ireland (if I…

I think it really depends on what your use case is. For me, link shortening is great for social, but it automatically comes with my Buffer account, so I don't pay for yet another monthly subscription…

I use Campfire more as a quick chat/casual updates back and forth per-project, then use the "Message Board" with custom message types as ways to make threads about particular topics regarding that…

I've toyed around with this with not perfect solution. Not to be a massive Basecamp advocate, but for work, organization, and thread finding, this is perfect for what I do.

I only use Slack now for…

*Not that you all aren't busy enough 😂

Thanks! I had a feeling this was going to be the answer. I was also looking at Revue and Podia, but Substack definitely seems like the easiest choice. I appreciate your help!

I'm definitely going to do more digging into this. Currently, when I build sites with dynamic content, it's a combo of elementor and advanced custom fields.

I was talking on Twitter with Alfred Lua of Buffer about software companies that have great referral programs to drive growth.

What are some of your favorite software referral program examples…

How to take a full-site page screenshot if you're a Safari user.

File -> Export as PDF. Then, upload that PDF to photoshop and do whatever it is you're trying to accomplish.

Forget all of those…

This has been my nightmare lately. I'm currently working with an old-school management team company adopt to modern-day technology. When I first started with them and did my audit, I asked for a…

It really depends on the software I'm using. I prefer dark mode 90% of the time, but yesterday I opened up Apple Numbers with their new "black theme" and just couldn't handle it.

I’m always blown away with the “script + procedures” efforts in digital marketing and sales these days. Just because there is a script, doesn't mean you can't customize to your current efforts…

Early last year, I was looking at a CRM and Sales tool for a consulting client of mine. I've always been a Hubspot advocate, but I wanted to see what the competition offered, so I gave Salesforce a…

I find myself using Loom a lot to make client training videos for how to use new software / give presentations.

Yeah, so far when I've used it with team members, it was a simple, "Can you talk real quick? Here's my link."

It definitely doesn't have all of the features that Zoom does, so I might use it more…

So, as the privacy-focused individual that I am, I was a little bummed to read the Vice article yesterday that said Zoom on iOS shares your data with Facebook. I get it why, but it has caused me to…

I have been making an effort to become more of a digital marketing minimalist - and by that, I mean becoming more privacy focused and only using tools I have to use, but nothing more. User privacy has…

I live off of this shortcut. I hate having to remember where all of the emojis are, so I just type in the short cut, type in the search field and BAM! Ready to rock 🤙

I'll definitely give Substack a look for my next project. Thanks for adding it to the list.
