    Hey there!

    My name is Connor. 

    I’m not really sure what I am most passionate about. I enjoy learning about myself and how I tick, whether through journaling, meditation, or exercise. I feel strongly about climate change and global wealth inequality. And I love storytelling - both books and movies. 

    I’ve been in the eCom space for about two and a half years and have been a freelance email marketer since COVID hit. I work almost exclusively on Klaviyo and I really appreciate and enjoy the platform. Klaviyo and Shopify are the most user-friendly and capable platforms I’ve come across in my short time in the eCom space. 

    What I very much enjoy about my job is helping small businesses grow. I get to be a crucial part of people’s dreams, which I think is pretty cool. 

    Side note: I made a post today and commented on it, and then received an email saying someone commented on my post. I don’t think this is the ideal customer experience. Thanks.

    Hi @ConnorBohannan! Welcome to the Klaviyo Community, and thanks so much for sharing a little more about you. We have a few folks that have also commented on this thread about their interest in climate change - any interesting movies or books you’d recommend on the topic for others? Additionally, thanks for sharing your experience working with small businesses and using both Klaviyo and Shopify to help in that journey. If you’re interested in sharing, we have a post supporting small businesses where people have been posting either their or their clients top holiday gift ideas.

    Lastly, I appreciate you mentioning the email experience you had. I’ll look into getting that updated so that it excludes the original poster from the notifications. 

    Kind Regards, 
    -Cass.

    Hey @cassy.lee!

    Thank you for the warm welcome :)

    Yes, I would love to recommend David Attenborough: A Life on Our Planet, which is on Netflix. It weaves together data, science, and the beauty of our planet with a sense of urgency that I found very informative and moving. 

    I would also recommend My Octopus Teacher, which isn’t about climate change, but an octopus. Haha. It is a movie that will make you fall in love with nature again, and make you realize just what climate change threatens.  

    Also, people should look into the work of Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat. Those two plant-based meat companies are probably doing more to fight climate change than almost any other organization on earth. 

    Happy to be here!

    Hi Everyone!

    I feel so late to the party! Hah! It was so much fun reading everyone’s bios!

    My name is Sabrina! I am the owner and Operations Director of Saberlin LLC. We make Handcrafted Sterling Silver Jewelry. This is a family business that I was passed the torch over two years ago I was tired of always sitting in the shadows crafting items under a private label for major accounts so I created an online presence and brand named Saberlin Collections.  While we still have our B2B business and it is a big part of our bread and butter, I wanted to created something more unique and something that we could share and connect directly with those who want quality designer silver jewelry that’s affordable. 

     

    I am most passionate about my family, food (all kinds, from everywhere), my business (I mean… it is bling!!!!!) and most of all helping people. I plan on creating a free program for information to help others build their own businesses!

     

    I love that even though through all the years no matter how big or how many dollars in sales we hit, my parents always wanted to continue to work with other family run businesses from all over the world. This is what creates the best quality, the best pricing, and most of all the happiest customers!!! Come check us out :)

     

    All of these pieces can be found on our website! :)

    Hi Everyone!

    My name is Dan and I am very passionate about design, photography and cars!

    I am a Director of a family-run Home Textile business which has been trading since 1846. 

    I love developing new products for the home, we are innovative in the search for the latest trend, or finding new fibres that help benefit the world by being environmentally friendly or well being for us such as at the moment we are into Silver technology into yarns to help antibacterial qualities in products.

    Very excited about Klaviyo, such a genius program and community, we have been using since late November and that instant feel of doing something right came straight away and was such an awesome feel good factor.

    Many thanks

    Dan

    Hi everyone! My name is Amber and I am the Digital Marketing Manager at Zootility in Portland, Maine. 

    I am most passionate about going to the beach in the summer, skiing in the winter and spending time with my family. I live just two miles from the beach in Scarborough.

    The thing I love most about working at Zootility is having the ability to be creative and share my thoughts and ideas and not feel judged at all. It really is a great company and I happen to LOVE the products we sell.
