Prive

Season 11 of The Room Podcast is a wrap! And we did so with a zap! Was an honor for Madison and me to sit down with Zapier CEO and Founder Wade Foster to hear his founding journey and get his insight into the future of automations and where Zapier is going next. As a Zapier user, this episode was a particularly fun one for me. For over a decade, Zapier has quietly revolutionized the way businesses operate, empowering teams (like ones at Prive) to automate workflows without writing a single line of code. For all the fellow founders trying to navigate current funding environments, this is a great episode on Wade's approach to fueling growth with revenue and some of his hot takes around scaling. A huge thank you to Perkins Coie and Mercury for making this episode (and season) happen. Watch the conversation on Youtube: https://lnkd.in/gKF-ZHPw

Last few weeks have been some of the busiest for both The Room Podcast and Prive so excited to share a September highlight reel for what the teams have been up to… On The Room Podcast side of house, Madison and I were in Cincinnati earlier this week for the Forbes 30u30 summit. Being on the Media list for our work on The Room was such a twist for both of us, and it was incredible to meet some other listers IRL. Just a couple months after Inside Summit, we are already starting to think about our next big summit, and we were taking inspiration from our 2 days in Ohio. Was incredible to catch up with Alexandra York, Judith Thelen, and Chris Hedley who we last saw at Inside Summit. Right after Ohio, I was so excited to do a site visit for our TECH WEEK by a16z event which we are hosting on October 7th. We will be doing a live podcast recording with Mercury CEO Immad Akhund alongside our partners Perkins Coie and CBRE and this might be one of our biggest events yet. We have an incredible space and some surprises on deck.?Don't forget to RSVP here: https://lu.ma/u2dhcdnx Yesterday we had our first season 12 recording (yes season 12 is coming right after season 11 which premieres next week). The upcoming lineup is looking stronger than ever (spoiler get excited for our convo with Perplexity). Now onto some Prive updates… We just migrated one of my favorite DTC brands, GEM and I am personally humbled that Prive is now powering their subscription experience. Go subscribe (link here: https://lnkd.in/g8ac_xTG), they are the best way to get your vitamins in. Ragnar and Aimée are a rockstar team. We also launched David’s subscription program. One of the best looking sites on the internet, and an even tastier product. Honored we were able to be a part of the journey. The David and Sharma Brands teams are the best. More announcements to come soon, but we also onboarded another HUGE celebrity brand and one of our largest customers over the last few weeks. Watch this space! It's been a packed few weeks (I know I am super behind on my texts) but I can’t wait for what October has in store. Let's get to it.?

Earlier this week Madison told me that we had officially hit 100 episodes of The Room Podcast. I had to do a double-take. The last few years have flown by and when we set out to start The Room, there wasn't a milestone or metric in mind. We wanted to learn from people who have built incredible businesses and share their stories. I am so proud that through a pandemic, starting a startup, moves across the country, life milestones, and more, Madison and I have stuck it through with what we set out to do with the pod. But we couldn't have done it without the incredible The Room Podcast community. Thank you to our audience, our guests, our event attendees, our sponsors, who have been with us throughout this journey. Getting to build a true community has been the biggest highlight of the past four years. Can't wait to announce that season 11 is coming October 1. https://lnkd.in/g3Cgc6bX Let's get recording on the next 100. Drop a comment on who you want to see on the pod next ;)

Probably the most anticipated launch in DTC this year, David is now live. Congratulations to the David team for creating a brand that is already iconic. I just subscribed and cannot wait to try the product. Honored that Prive is able to play a small part in launch by powering subscriptions.
