A paid growth expert once told me that startups should have a strict success timetable, and if they didn’t hit their goals, they should call it quits. But I believe this advice couldn’t be more misguided. True success comes from pursuing your passion and dreams with relentless determination and never giving up. Dawn Myers’s journey is a testament to this belief. Two years ago, her business was on the brink of collapse, but today it’s scaling after her successful pitch on Shark Tank. Her story is an inspiration to all entrepreneurs. Congratulations, Dawn, on your remarkable achievement!

Congratulations to Cancer Council on their record-breaking results for March Charge 2024. It was great to see nearly 17,000 Australians charging 804,068 kms and raising an incredible $2.75m. Even more impressive when many P2P campaigns are experiencing year-on-year declines. It shows the importance of constantly trying new things. Here are some highlights: 1. A more diverse and comprehensive content-led acquisition strategy: More content and variations than ever, including a greater variety of channels. 2. Quality over quantity: The acquisition strategy went to great lengths to acquire participants who were genuinely committed to the cause, not just the incentives. 3. Dynamic scaling: When we can see it performing well, invest more. 4. Innovative engagement tactics: A raft of new initiatives were introduced on the website. Congratulations to Tiana Takchi, Lauren Clarke, Kelly Carr, Joshua McNeil, Michael Wilson, Emily Dougan, Danielle A. and Jennifer Wu for all of your hard work on this!
