March 2021 Update

Hello! 

Holy moly were there a lot of recent signups; welcome to all our new subscribers! I personally send this newsletter once a month to share what's on my mind, Scroobious updates, where to catch me speaking, and a feature on one of our founders. Make sure to scroll down to catch it all!

March is women's history month, and on March 8th we celebrated International Women's Day. Our feeds are currently flooded with content and initiative launches promoting women. I'm glad there is a month dedicated to recognizing our equality and I'm glad so many are seeing images of women in leadership positions, but it's always bittersweet, because I know at the end of the month this will rapidly dissipate.

You don't need a specific month to support women, but if it helps spur you to action, then by all means, act now! In particular, support a female founder. An investment check is likely the most helpful thing you can do, but if that's not an option, there are many other things that will be meaningful and appreciated more than you know. Here are some ideas to get you started:

• Tell her you respect the work she's doing, you think it's important, and you think she's doing a great job. We don't hear this enough.
• Post the above on social media, tag her, and encourage your network to use her service/product.
• Ask her if there is something specific you can do to help her. Make an introduction, have a strategy call, review a document or marketing copy, etc.
• Read on for news about our Pitch it Plan™ (PiP) MVP release, our investor member access, where to catch me speaking, and our featured founder. There's a lot this month!

Thank you for reading this. Thank you for helping us. I appreciate you.
