🍹Poolsuite Drops the Mic with guerilla marketing, Positive Thinking Principle, Crypto Bezos, New Pod & More

👋 Hello my wonderful Whale Mailers! Today’s issue is stuffed full of awesomeness. First, we start with a new pod with Jason Wong.

He goes into a ton of tangible and actionable insights. Strong listen.

Next, we explore a masterclass in guerilla marketing by Poolsuite.

They leveraged their app release notes; a notoriously boring customer touchpoint aka bug fixes and stability updates, for positive publicity. Incredible! You da man Marty.

Moving on, we included one of our favorites essays from Packy McCormick called Crypto Bezos. Then we dive into the Metaverse.

Rounding out the reading section is a wonderful thread by James Clear on the Positive Thinking Principle. Super Legit.

As always, we close with our fact, tip, tool and question of the week.

Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for being a Whale Mailer!

Cheers,

R
