In this week's episode of the Creating Superfans podcast, I'm joined by David Wachs, the founder and CEO of Handwrytten.
Handwrytten is bringing back the lost art of letter-writing through scalable, robot-based solutions that write your notes in pen - directly from your CRM.
Used by major subscription-service brands, eCommerce giants, nonprofits and individual professionals, Handwrytten is changing the way brands and people connect.
Prior to Handwrytten, David founded Cellit, a mobile marketing platform and agency that pioneered the concept of mobile customer relationship management.
David and I chat about the creative ways your brand can stand out in today's AI-powered landscape, the do's and don'ts of sending personalized notes, and the power of automation and repetition in creating superfan customers.
