Kicking this off with the obvious first move: tell us who you are.

Create an intro and include:

  • Name and company
  • Where you’re traveling from
  • What you work on day to day
  • Is this your first K:BOS, or are you a repeat?
  • One thing you're hoping to get out of this year's event
  • Fun facts about you

I'll start: I'm Gabby, I run this community, and this'll be my second K:BOS. What I'm hoping for this year is meeting more of you in person than usual. I have a staffordshire terrior I rescued, named Clyde. I love Taylor Swift, TikTok, listening to audiobooks, and fashion.

    Hi all! I’m David. I’m traveling from South Florida and I’m the founder of EmailStrategist.ai & EvolveRelevance. I’ve spent the last 20 years in email marketing and currently focused on helping brands and agencies drive incremental revenue growth and operational efficiency.

    This will be my second time at K:BOS and I’m excited to see old friends and make lots of new ones. I’m looking forward to having great conversations about practical applications of leveraging AI and Email marketing to make things better on both sides of the inbox.  

    On a personal note, I’m a proud father of a 4-year old and we spend most of our free time going on “adventures” or just hanging at home and building with magnatiles.  

    See you all in Boston!

    There's revenue hiding in your Klaviyo. EmailStrategist.ai finds your top moves and what they’re worth.

    Hi everyone! Im Kaitlyn, DTC Marketing Coordinator at Appaman and Andy & Evan, traveling in from New York. Day to day, I work across email marketing, social media, and influencer marketing, so I get to touch a little bit of everything on the DTC side. 

    This is my first K:BOS and I'm really excited. I'm hoping to learn more about AI and the practical ways it can be used to improve the business, whether that's speeding up the day-to-day work, sharpening our email strategy, or helping us think differently about content. I'd also love to come away with new connections and hear how other people in similar roles are approaching all of this.

    A fun fact about me is that I love to ski! It's my favorite way to spend a winter weekend, and I'm always looking for new mountains to add to the list.

    Looking forward to meeting everyone and learning from you all!

    Hi! I’m Erin Weston, founder and creative director of Weston Farms, and I’m traveling to K:BOS from Raleigh, North Carolina.

    Weston Farms is a direct-to-consumer and wholesale luxury home and garden brand specializing in magnolia wreaths, garlands, bouquets, and natural accessories. Day to day, I’m involved in just about everything—from product design and marketing to customer experience, operations, and figuring out how to make all of those pieces work together as we grow.

    This will be my first K:BOS. Klaviyo has become an important part of our business, and I’m especially interested in learning how other brands are using it more strategically—particularly automation, customer segmentation, retention, and ways we can make better use of the customer data we already have.

    Fun facts: I started Weston Farms more than 20 years ago, we now grow more than 10,000 magnolia trees, and I still design many of our products myself. When I’m not working, I’m usually somewhere on the farm with my mini goldendoodle, Polly.

    @GabbyEsposito 

    Hi,

    I’m researching a common lifecycle challenge among Shopify brands.

    Many stores have email/SMS tools but still struggle to identify where repeat revenue is leaking.

    Curious from your experience — is this a problem you see often with clients?
