week 28: good times

Dear board, first of all - thanks for making the time 👋

A lot of things are happening behind the scenes these days.

First of all, we have pushed our own articles, Jared Briefs, to the newsletter. If you haven’t noticed, the three articles can be read on Jared.news.

And the best thing;

1) DAU on the website has doubled since then, and

2) Clicks and churn have stayed the same.

This means that our own articles have met the standard of the articles that we featured previously from some of the biggest news outlets in the world.

And ours are free, which means no more articles behind a paywall.

We are currently working on Jared v.3.

Version one was the articles recommender.

Version two introduced the Jared Briefs and our web platform

Version three is a total rethink of Jared, making it the go-to information hub for business professionals.

I’m looking forward to sharing some more.

(The reason that I don’t include any numbers in this edition is that we’re currently settling on some new KPI’s to determine our success - more on that later).

I’ll share the ups and downs, our numbers, and our plans with you every week this year.

As mentioned, I’m always open to feedback, suggestions or just connecting.

Thanks for being part of this journey.

Co-Founder & CEO, Jared
