Short

This is my first magazine cover.

Nobody prints Pipeline, so @Alex Muresan made it anyway. Issue 03 puts 12 marketers building pipeline before the Series C on its covers. I'm on cover 08A for Aikido, and my co-founder @Felix Garriau has cover 08B.

Thanks @Reach AI for sponsoring the issue.

With the stat

I made the cover of Pipeline.

Issue 03 is the Series B issue, with 12 marketing and growth leaders whose companies raised $1.38B between them. I'm on cover 08A for Aikido, and my co-founder @Felix Garriau has cover 08B. It's about Aikido becoming a unicorn 3 years in, after growing revenue 5x in a year.

Thanks to @Alex Muresan for making it and to @Reach AI for sponsoring it.

Change anything you like. It's your post. After you paste it, retype @Alex Muresan, @Reach AI and @Felix Garriau and pick each one from the list LinkedIn shows, because pasted names don't turn into tags (annoying, I know).
