TouchNote is the most thoughtful way to make friends and family smile with your pictures!
Trent Payne is a London-born award-winning creative who is currently the creative lead at TouchNote. During his varied career, he has run a thriving creative studio, and worked in-house and at leading agencies, working on campaigns for the likes of MTV, Nike and Warner Brothers. Here, we talk about what it was like back in the early '90s as a black student hoping to make it into that creative world – and we look at how things may or might not have changed in nearly three decades. We also talk about the differences between freelancing, working in-house and agency side. This is a frank and open discussion about the changing creative industries, unconventional paths, diversity, and the power of speaking up.
Today’s guest and your mentor for the next 40 minutes is Dan Ziv, CEO at TouchNote, the world’s most popular postcard sending app. Since joining the company in 2016 as Chief Product Officer, they’ve gone from strength to strength and Dan quickly climbed the ladder to CEO. But Dan’s career hasn’t always been plain sailing. A previous tech start up he founded with a friend failed to take off, but with his infectious optimism, he saw the shortcomings as a good way to learn and move forward with his next venture, the last minute table booking app Uncover, which was a huge success. In just over two years Dan and his cofounders proved there was a market for the app, attracted £1m in seed funding and sold it to a competitor. Together, we discuss the ups and downs throughout his career and how they’ve shaped him as an entrepreneur and business leader, including: - How taking command of 132 soldiers as a 21-year-old in the Israeli army gave him a crash course in leadership and built his resilience - The importance of choosing who you work with carefully and how the complementary skills of his cofounders at Uncover contributed to its success - And why he has pivoted TouchNote from eCommerce to communications by focusing on a subscriptions business model. Dan is such an upbeat person with some brilliant insights into how to create a positive culture within an organisation. It was a pleasure talking to him and discovering more about the values that drive him and the wider team at TouchNote. If you’re considering starting your own business or are about to step into your first leadership role, this episode is an absolute must-listen. We’d love to hear your thoughts on this episode, so please do get in touch at james@jbmc.co.uk If you want to find out more about Dan, check out his LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/danziv/ If you want to find out more about TouchNote, have a look at their website – https://touchnote.com/
With a background as an M&A lawyer in Israel, and several successful start ups to his name, Dan Ziv is now CEO of TouchNote. Dan describes TouchNote as a creative platform for personal communication, where people upload their own images and send them as postcards, greetings cards etc. TouchNote's primary differentiator is that they are a “Mobile first” platform, optimised for ease of use, with a particular focus on personalisation.Amongst a range of topics, Dan explains how they have pivoted to rapidly scale the business by offering memberships.Links:@Danzivdan@touchnote.com
We’re getting saucy—even more so than usual?—and dipping into the spreads, schmears, and drizzles we’re treating as essential supplements to our souls as well as our fridge-clearing batches of fried rice. Also! We’re coming at you with a bunch o’ thoughts on how to practice ~friendship~ right now, whether you prefer a postcard or a week-long game.

Episode 7: We’ve Never Not Known Each Other Because Tricia is older, she admitted there was indeed an 18 month time span in her first, well, 18 months, when her brother wasn’t born yet. So theoretically, she hasn’t known Rob all of her life. He was quick to point out that actually, she can’t remember anything about those first 18 months, which is proof that, when he showed up, well…that’s when she started making memories. Rob and Tricia were excited to announce that the Let’s Talk podcast has been rated in the Top 100 list of their category! Thanks to all who’ve been listening who put the podcast there! Tricia has received a deluge of messages from people who want to know what happened with the professor story from the previous podcast! In this episode, she finished the story (and if you missed the first half of the experience, be sure to listen to Episode __ to catch up!) about the email debacle with her professor in college, whom she accidentally sent an email complaining about him—to him! She did go back to him to apologize, and he very kindly not only forgave her, but she got a B in his class. All’s well that ended…pretty well. Did you ever have someone just “pop into your head” for no apparent reason? Rob talked about the occasions when that happens, and his habit of calling or texting that individual just to say, “hey, thinking about you today—how’s everything going?” Sometimes nothing comes of it, but other times, that person may reply with “Really? I was just thinking about you!” or, “Actually, I’m struggling today…” or any of a number of answers. Rob suggested that if someone just “pops into your head” for no apparent reason, why not reach out to them? Just check in on them—and especially during this quarantine, when people are feeling pretty isolated. In response, Tricia recommended the use of an app called TouchNote, that helps you get in touch by sending your message to the person as a “real” postcard along with a photo from your phone! Tricia’s fun question for today: What is surprising you? Her answer: How big my hair is today!! “It’s like a mane…really, surprisingly big.” Rob’s answer: the sight of fireflies (or, ‘lightning bugs’ where he’s from) for the first time in years. Could it be that nature is taking back some of its space during this quiet season? Tricia also filled us in on the Denver owl that happens nightly at 8pm during this quarantine, when people step outside their doors and literally howl to each other! What is happening in your town to let people know they’re not alone? Let us know—and you get extra points if you can send us a video! Tricia’s request for today: “Rob, please talk about Simon Sinek.” Rob has been reading Sinek’s book, The Infinite Game, in which Sinek discusses the difference between finite game theory—those games that have a beginning and ending with clear rules and players, like soccer, baseball, etc.—and infinite game theory, in which there are no rules, no start or finish, no fixed players. The only object of the infinite game is to stay in the game for as long as possible. That might mean taking care of your employees well in order to stay in the game, but sometimes—like this quarantine, it’s not possible to keep your company open past a certain point. For as long as you could, your role was to keep your people in the game. Tricia pointed out that infinite game theory can even apply to family: you can win the argument but in the process, lose the son or daughter whom you love. Some days, staying in the game can mean just watching funny home videos with your teenagers because they want you to laugh with them. “In this season of quarantine, we may need to press Pause on this particular game and clear everybody out, and when we come back, we might be able to pick up where we stopped—but at the same time, we might just have to start a whole new game.” – Rob Memorable quotes from The Infinite Game,by Simon Sinek “You are not responsible for results, as a leader. You are responsible for the people who are responsible for the results.” “Leadership is not about being in charge of people; it’s about taking care of the people who are in your charge.” What is happening in your area to support essential workers, those who keep us safe and healthy? Send us your stories and examples this week! Recommended App: TouchNote, designed to send a picture and message via US Mil postcard to someone directly from your phone. You pay a fee for postage, and the addressee gets a picture-postcard in the mail from you!

Hola,Soy Azucena Caballero, co-directora junto a Mireia Long de mamamarketing.net, la web en la que si eres una mamá emprendedora o tu cliente final es una mamá, encontrarás recursos, ideas, servicios, cursos y programas que te ayudarán a sacar adelante tu proyecto sin renunciar a tu vida familiar. Hoy es viernes 22 de noviembre. Sigo con la temática navideña, y hoy quiero recomendarte un par de aplicaciones para poder personalizar y mandar postales a todo el mundo desde tu teléfono móvil o desde la web, sin moverte de casa. Pero antes déjame recordarte que este mes de noviembre en el Club de las mamás Emprendedoras estamos trabajando en crear nuestros bloques de tiempo y en realizar ejercicios de enfoque y productividad que nos aporten claridad, foco y mayor eficacia y eficiencia en nuestro día a día. Si aún no formas parte de nuestro club privado te invito a que te unas desde nuestra web mamamarketing.net. Has de saber que ahora mismo está a precio de oferta, y que subirá en sólo 3 días. El último día de nuestra oferta será el lunes 25 de noviembre, cuando empiece la semana del Black Friday. En Black Friday ofreceremos otras cosas, pero el Club habrá subido de precio. Y con esto dicho, deseo hablarte de lo cómodo y útil que es, no sólo en Navidad, si no en cualquier momento del año, usar una aplicación como MyPostcard para enviar tus mensajes personales y personalizados a tus amigos, familiares, etc.Lo que me gusta de esta app es que la puedes usar tanto desde la web como directamente con tu móvil y convertir cualquiera de las fotos que has tomado en una postal chulísima en un momento. Tiene un montón de opciones para personalizar tu postal como quieras. Y encima, escribes ahí mismo el mensaje que quieras, y desde la propia app la mandas directamente a la dirección que quieras, de todo el mundo. Pagas por servicio, y chimpún. Y si quieres encargar varias iguales, sin texto, para escribirlas tú a mano, el coste es menor por postal, ya que pides un pack y te lo mandas a tu dirección. Está fenomenal.Por supuesto no sólo sirve para la Navidad, si no para cualquier momento del año, cumpleaños, aniversarios, notas de agradecimiento, etc. Similar es la app TouchNote, que te permite mandar tus primeras dos postales gratis, pero a partir de ahí además del envío de las postales te cobra una tarifa plana mensual o anual. Esto para los británicos tiene sentido, mandan postales para todo y seguro que lo aprovechan, en nuestra cultura lo veo menos útil y me gusta más una app como MyPostcard que me permite un uso más esporádico.Fijaros que esto es más para uso personal, o profesional si queréis mandar algo muy personalizado y a pocas personas. Para usos más masivos creo que hay servicios más adecuados, tipo Vistaprint, etc. Y por supuesto, si quieres imprimirte todo tú, te aconsejo que utilices Canva que es muy fácil de usar y tiene plantillas y un banco de imágenes enorme.Espero que estos recursos te sean de utilidad.Gracias por escucharme, te espero también en nuestra web mamamarketing.net, en nuestro instagram @mama.marketing y por supuesto dentro del Club de las Mamás Emprendedoras, dónde todos los meses trabajamos en temas fundamentales para sacar nuestros proyectos adelante y que además quedan siempre todos grabados y organizados para que no te pierdas nunca nada.Un beso, y gracias.MyPostcard: https://www.mypostcard.com/es/TouchNote: https://touchnote.com/Canva: https://www.canva.com/Vistaprint: https://www.vistaprint.es/Nuestra Web: https://mamamarketing.net/Nuestro instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mama.marketing/ Nuestro club de las mama emprendedoras: https://mamamarketing.net/club-mamas-emprendedoras/
