@guyeats Congrats Guy! Happy to offer specific advice, but as for general: make sure to listen to your audience and truly understand what they want/find most interesting. Do surveys, 1:1 calls with super-readers, etc. Will help you isolate / double down on what’s connecting. Good luck!

@rabois @zebulgar any interesting Miami companies you are seeing in the food, bev, cpg or digital media spaces?

[Josh Luger @joshluger]

@thenewb @willschoebs Yes, it’s become a truly indispensable read @thenewb - thank you! Share tidbits with my team regularly.

I’m old enough to remember when they asked “who would pay for BI content??” 100,000 paid subs later... this. Continually impressed with the continual growth led by @hblodget and the team @businessinsider. Excited to see what 2021 brings, especially on sub side.

[Alyson Shontell @ajs]

Yes, we did “nothing” at Business Insider last year — except grow revenue 30%, more than double subscriptions, and hire 130 journalists :) and that is just the appetizer to what we will do this year. https://t.co/SQix0kAHoJ

[Josh Luger @joshluger]

Rev up 20% YOY. 50%+ via @POLITICOPro subs. Record profit. Future-leaning acquisition. 14 years in. The biz success story that is @politico continues.

🚨*Very* excited to welcome E&E News to @politico.

I've admired its many great journalists from afar for years. Now, with both publications under one roof, we will be able to tell this critical story better, and for more people, than before. 1/4

@gangrey @axios Very excited for this to launch, congrats!

[Josh Luger @joshluger]

@jonathanmaze Weird indeed. Any indication on what the causal factors were/are?

[Josh Luger @joshluger]

A great listen from a @pkafka. @axios rapid success + scale as a few year old media co. is important and inspiring. It's also pretty unsurprising given the team that is there leading the charge. Very excited to see what @JimVandeHei is cooking up for Tampa.

[Peter Kafka @pkafka]

Axios, which launched less than four years ago, is on track to do $58 million this year. Talked to CEO @JimVandeHei about his very fast start. https://t.co/fBZJVobvxF

We've teamed up again with @TheRealCally24 & @RyanCallahanFdn on his namesake taco: Cally's Chicken BLT! The July Taco of the Month is here early on #tacotuesday! Portion of proceeds to be donated to provide meals to our frontline medical heroes. Great taco. For a greater cause.

[Josh Luger @joshluger]

@jonathanmaze Ah, great! Didn’t realize. Listened to the pod with Joe Weisenthal, didn’t realize you had your own.

[Capital Tacos @CapitalTacos]

Thanks to YOU (and our special May taco sales so far), we're serving up more catered meals to frontline heroes today! END OF MAYS and The Cluckin' Kahuna are truly great tacos for an ever greater cause. So listen to @BaronCorbinWWE. Come on by for #tacotuesday and #keepitcapital!
