HERstory by marketHER.org — Career growth stories from tech marketing leaders

HERstory by marketHER.org is a weekly newsletter for women in tech. Each week, we chat with a different marketing leader and get to know HERstory. Then, we send you the takeaways, so you can apply them to your career.

@nikkielizdemere Thanks for hunting HERstory by marketHER.org, Nichole! We really appreciate your support and are so excited to share this project with the community. 😊

Subscribed! Thanks for sharing @nikkielizdemere and building @jeskirkwood! Can't wait for the first story. Will you be turning all the stories into a larger book down the line?
Jes Kirkwood
@nikkielizdemere @ems_hodge Hi Emily, The first stories are already live. You can view them here: https://markether.org/blog That's a great question! We hadn't considered aggregating these stories into a book down the road, but I've noted it as an idea to consider! 😉 That said, we do plan to publish thematic content on specific topics, such as breaking into leadership and negotiating a higher salary.

I've been a subscriber to MarketHER since its launch, and have especially enjoyed seeing the patterns in how these women advanced in their careers. Great resource for anyone wanting to see how *others* did it.

HERstory is a game-changer for women in tech. Hearing what other women have fought through, strive for, and how the magic happens from leaders at companies we all admire: now that's something we can all use more of these days.
