Build In Public: Here's the Nov 2020 Community Edition ⚡️
Hey everyone 👋
It is Thanksgiving here in the U.S. today. Apart from the festivities, it is a great time to reflect and refocus on all the things we can be grateful for. In my case, I’m grateful for a big basket of blessings this year including getting the chance to build this terrific community of makers/founders who believe in the “build in public” movement. Many of you are my friends or follow me on Twitter and share your updates/milestones (both wins and lessons) and continue to inspire me by your vulnerability and courage. So, thank you! This has been a wild year for me with so many life upgrades, the new job at On Deck, a new baby on the way, so many friendships and supportive founders and builders who have consistently gone above and beyond to help, the list is endless. Hope you’ll get a chance to replay your year back and find things to be grateful for this holiday season.
BACKGROUND
To compliment the interviews featured on this site, we’ve always wanted to do a community round-up. One edition every few weeks dedicated entirely to the #buildinpublic community updates.
The intention is to post exciting content from the community to celebrate the makers/builders building in public.
So without further ado, let’s get rolling.
