I'm not flying solo anymore | STFO 🀘


Bonjour bonjour Reader,

OK, I can't hold it any longer... I don't have a solo business anymore!
​
​Diana De Jesus has joined the team as our General Manager!! She's in charge of running the day-to-day to make sure we get sh*t doneβ€”so I can spend most of my time doing what I do best (getting the business known, in short).

Her first big project is to make sure our motherf*cking book is getting the launch it deserves.
​
This is a massive move for me; I never really thought I'd hire a team after my disastrous experience of burning out while running my first marketing agency. I had built a team of three and felt so much pressure to make money.
​
A lot has changed since then. Mainly, I am not taking things that seriously anymore, and I've learned to channel demandβ€”instead of trying to create it.
​
But enough about me.
​
I met Diana when we both worked for Hothar from 2017 to 20. She was in Customer Success, and I was in Marketing. We never worked together directly, but I've always been very impressed by her drive, her no-bullsh*t attitude, and her smarts.
​
We kept in touch, of course, and she was at the very top of my list of people to contact about this General Manager role. I sent her a nonchalant WhatsApp to test the waters, and I wasn't expecting much at all. After all, she was doing her own thing, and I didn't think she'd be interested.
​
It turns out I was wrong. We had a call a couple of days later. Within the first couple of minutes, the "interview" turned into our first working session. And we both knew it was just meant to happen.
​
Diana joined only three weeks ago, but she's already made my life so much easier and my mental load much more bearable.
​
In short, she's f*cking brilliant, and I just can't wait for you to get to know her.
