Hey everyone, Alex here. Before we start today's episode, I have one ask of my listeners.

I've been studying the growth playbooks of the biggest podcasts in the world to better understand

how I can keep growing Founders Journal.

Beyond Showcross promotions, content marketing with micro content on social media

and recommendations by Apple Podcasts and Spotify in their actual apps.

The number one way to grow your show is through show reviews.

Reviews take less than 60 seconds and they make a huge difference

for podcasters like myself. With that being said it would mean the world to me

if you could head to the Apple Podcast app and leave a review on the show.

My goal is to go from a hundred and twenty three ratings, which is what I have right now,

to two hundred and fifty ratings in two months.

And with your help, I believe we can do it.

Now, time for the episode.

What is up everyone?

This is Alex Lieberman, co-founder and CEO of Morning Brew.

As always, thank you for joining Founders Journal,

my personal audio diary made public for the world.

My diary is meant to give you the business builder

a backstage pass into Building Morning Brew.

I want to help you think better in order to build better,

whether that's building a business,

building a team, or building a new product.
