Our First Weekly Update/Recap

This week has been absolutely insane. From the content we shared with you, to the pieces we have yet to release, things have been pretty busy around our offices. We mentioned yesterday that we wanted to begin letting you in a bit more to what we’ve been up to, so consider this your first weekly update.

We spoke with a lot of brilliant people this week for our industry spotlight series, including the three whose features ran on this very blog:

Jesse Richman of PropertyOfZack told us about his love of interviews on Monday

Jen Appel of The Catalyst Publicity Group shared her journey as a young entrepreneur on Tuesday.

Ashley Osborn of Highlight Magazine told us about the ups and downs of creating a monthly digital publications on Wednesday

It was an honor to share each of these stories, and we look forward to bringing you updates on their journeys in the future. We have plenty more interviews to come in the weeks ahead, but for the sake of keeping some surprises under wraps we’re not sharing that list just yet. That said, if you follow us on Twitter and Facebook I can promise you will never miss a single column.

Outside of the blog we are continuing to work on refining our products to offer increasingly better service and performance in the months ahead. Our current focus is improving our email system, but you’ll have to wait a bit longer for details on that.

My personal goal in the weeks to come is to expand our blog coverage to five original pieces of content each week, in addition to updates like the one you are currently reading. This means a continuation of our various spotlight series and advice column, as well as the introduction of new columns in the near future. We may even have some guest bloggers! If you have any suggestions of people/sites to cover, or if there is an area of the industry you would like us to discuss, please comment below and let us know!

Okay, this post is getting long. Thank you for joining us on this journey over the past few months and we certainly hope you’ll stick around for all that is to come. We have learned a lot together, and we are very excited for everything the future holds, both known and unknown. Have a great weekend.
