@originaljadep Try asking for help in the Zapier Community: community.zapier.com

@zapier hey Zapier team, I messaged support 2-3 days ago and haven’t had a reply. Can someone help me out?

For this week's issue, we interviews @originaljadep about her newsletter, 240 Days to Raise. creatorspotlight.com/p/jade-buffong…

Had a great time speaking with @originaljadep for this week's @creator__spot Loved how she spoke about what writing a newsletter does for her: "What I didn't realize is how cathartic it would be. You get to the end of a long week, and it's like, oh god, what did I do?"

Has anyone noticed that @substack keeps crashing when you use the editor in Chrome?

Today, my little one-person business crossed $5M in revenue. That was my big goal when I started on August 1st, 2019. It took 1,548 days, I ran zero ads & operate at a 92% margin. Here are the 20 steps of my wild & strange journey: Hope they are helpful to someone ↓

It’s sad but a majority of people still feel like they need permission to take a break or get some rest. If you are a superior, a mentor, an investor — sometimes the most helpful thing you can do is say, “hey you’ve been working really hard lately, why don’t you take a break.”

I grew Just Go Grind to 23,000+ subscribers this year But I'm more excited about the long-term I know I can surpass that growth in the next year But even if I maintain the amount of growth, that's: Year 2 - 46k Year 3 - 69k Year 4 - 92k Year 5 - 115k Not bad at all.

"Not Matthew Perry"

How Matthew Perry wanted to be remembered. I think we can honour his wishes today.

NEW: we need to talk about UK graduate wages, and the idea that Britain sends too many people to university. American readers should stick around for the UK/US comparisons 👀 Let’s start with this: the UK graduate wage premium has fallen substantially over the last 25 years

Ending the week on a high 🥳🥳 Selected for a pitching competition next week with a chance to win 5k — I’ll share more afterwards!

@The_Real_Abdel It's not just me then! I've managed to get back in -- has the problem settled down for you?

@originaljadep Yes!

Is anyone else having weird issues with LinkedIn automatically logging them out? It’s causing me an absolute nightmare

Community 🙏🏾 if there were EVER a time when I needed your help, it would be TODAY right now. On this day 2 years I asked myself "what do I have to lose?" when I applied for Brex and I'm gonna do the same today. The role you see below is my DREAM ROLE 🥹 Like I would pack up everything I owned and move to SF TOMORROW for this role. If you have ever 1) liked or laughed at my content, 2) been driven to act (sign up for something) by my content, or simply 3) were inspired by *anything* I have written on this platform Please write one (1) sentence as to why I would be a great fit and tag @NotionHQ or @ivanhzhao (CMO Rachel Hepworth not active on twitter). I have always been about doing things unconventionally. And sometimes you gotta ask for help to get what you want in this life. To me, the ultimate app is dripping w/ recs from the people who see and engage with my content the most: you, my community. Thank you in advance to anyone who helps. I will not forget it 💛🌻
