@jasonportnoy@beehiiv@kit I started using Kit many years ago for my newsletter, before joining the team. It's perfect for my simple needs, but I'm always amazed at how well it works for the complex needs of larger creators. The new features and apps being shipped are 🔥. We'd love to have you join us!
@jonahnewman I’ve been using @kit for 8+ years, and it’s perfect for my newsletter needs (mainly sending, automations, and selling digital products). Love the company so much I joined the team 2 years ago. My fave thing atm is the Kit App Store: https://t.co/VTTdiEf205. We’d love to have you!
