It’s a wrap! January 2015
At the end of last month I got a request from the guys at SCHED to work with them on an Eventbrite plug-in and help them revamp their email marketing strategy.
When I saw how well This Year Will Be Different was coming together (in particular the beautiful illustrations) I decided to run a Kickstarter campaign to fund a print edition of the book.
The campaign rolled out on the 4th of January and was successfully funded on the 27th of January, 10AM CET.
Initially I tried to get to 5K but thanks to several features (here, here) and also the great support of the community team at Kickstarter, 376 people pledged $8,873. I cannot even express in words how touched I am by the interest in the project.
Then, another cool thing happened. I had the chance to speak at a Marketing Natives event and share a little more about how to get (better) jobs.
As it was my first month back in Vienna, it was a month filled with great reunions. Some of the lovely people I met with to discuss freelance work were Anna Heuberger, Nina Mohimi, Sarah Halbeisen and Julia Basagic.
At the end of the month I flew back to New York, where I’ll be spending all of February. Very excited to see what the next month will bring. Maybe a collaboration with you? Get in touch if you need help with your great project or if you want to grab a coffee.
