SOCIAL PROOF

Results that speak for themselves

Returning sponsor: Vanta

Vanta has maintained a continuous sponsorship across 9+ posts throughout 2024-2025. A returning partner is the strongest proof that the partnership delivers real results.

8.3x reach multiplier

The original '1:1s done better' post reached 5,000 views from just 604 subscribers - content consistently punches above its weight through dual-channel distribution.

78 published long-form pieces

5+ years of consistent, high-quality content. Interview series featuring CEOs of Culture Amp, Slack, Brighte, Mr Yum, Forage, and Glow Capital Partners.

Trust-first approach

Sponsors aren't banner ads - they're woven into content in my authentic voice. I'm selective about who I partner with, and the audience knows it.
