Newsletter: 043 | On The Go

On The Go

We're reminded of the power of mobile technology this week, as this issue of the newsletter was completed on a mobile phone (including the original content linked below) while traveling over the weekend.  Amazing how productive we all can be on the go simply by using a smart phone and mobile apps (in this case, iPhone, MailChimp, Canva, and Squarespace).

About our Newsletter

We decided to launch a weekly newsletter with the simple goal of cultivating community.  Our newsletter covers (1) content relating to the startup industry that we liked from the previous week, giving you something to read, listen to, and watch; (2) content we created during the previous week, keeping you up to date on news and insight from our team; and (3) events and activities we plan to host or attend in the upcoming week, providing our community of clients, partners, and friends an opportunity to share, support, and connect with each other.

Cheers,
Scannavino Law
