Hey y’all. It’s late afternoon but I thought I’d say hello. We are doing big things in the group this month and year. I kicked off a call with my go-to-network groups in a new program I’m running, sponsored by Pilot.com. More to come on that one.
The startup scene in Nashville continues to grow. I love what I do and I love introducing folks to new startups. Making this group doesn’t look like much, but it’s a lot of very fun work.
I have my own startup. It’s called Britepeer. Britepeer is a tool for community managers like me to help onboard members, introduce them, and scale community operations. This tool gives CMs information about community engagement so they can sell sponsorships, scale admin work, and ultimately monetize their community.
🌞 See you on the brite side :)
