@sarahbuhr @conniechung we're working on that @getridwell in Seattle w/bubble mailers! Check out a partial solution: https://t.co/xwlMvqtbMQ Would love to instead reuse them - we have 1,000s ready to go!

The @getridwell team getting into the Halloween spirit! We have four of the categories we help people ♻️ and even brought in Owen as our 🔋 since he inspires us to keep going (and going and going...) #GeekWireHalloween

@sososazesh @m2jr Thanks for the mention @sososazesh! Lmk if you’d like to talk sometime @m2jr

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

Sad day for this former @Microsoft -ie and always @Seahawks fan. You’ve made such a big impact on my life, @PaulGAllen, and will be missed.

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

@nbt @DanielleMorrill @m2jr Thanks @nbt! Working on similar in Seattle. Lmk if anyone would like to share notes!

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

Sad day for this Ryan’s jersey collection as @JonRyan9 moves on. Will still be supporting #9 from CLink. And yes, that is an authentic (jersey and bratwurst)

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

@JackDeFuria Glad you found it! It was nice chatting today.

Wonder if those players know the Sonics (gone for 10 years now) have still made the playoffs more recently than they have...

[Chris Daniels @ChrisDaniels_TV]

Good stuff here from the Sonics, er, @Mariners.....

@lindsaycohen Nope. In Fairbanks. One day I will figure out threaded tweets. You should now plan a trip to Bend

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

@lindsaycohen Is that in Bend?! We’re headed there later this month. Now that it’s the only one left, this ex-video store employee is taking a similar shot!

New blog post aimed at answering the question 'how fast should I grow?' I gathered a data set of rev growth and capital and spoke about a few outliers. Thanks @thestartup_ for publishing! https://t.co/RJJTSIqa8G

Great thoughts on consumer acquisition in this podcast: https://t.co/GVsMWZ6ANp Diversity in channels is more important than ever, even in the early days

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

@lindsaycohen Good time to bring up a related biz idea that’s there for the taking: license the concept so you can play the game outside of broadcast. 1 in each big city for corp events, bday parties, etc. Big $ from those who grew up on DD and always wanted to play

[Ryan Metzger @ryanmetzger]

nice article on the economics of D2C brands - CAC vs. LTV, opening retails stores, venture-backing vs. not, and more! https://t.co/XlXYv6DAuM
