Thank you so much for sharing great insights every week, Olivia!

As I'm an international founder who failed once before, I really resonated with this article!

Here's a list of my highlights that I really resonated with from this article and my notes:

>> Canva generated buzz within the design community and adjacent groups needing design help.

✍️ Note: Great. They mainly focused on right groups. Focus and prioritization matter the most.

>> To boost confidence, new users went through a β€œhow-to” guide before entering the product.

✍️ Note: Think about the current onboarding flow. There must be a huge opportunity to improve the user activation.

>> The Facebook templates spurred referrals, as users invited their colleagues to collaborate on designs. And when they posted a slick Canva graphic on Facebook, others would ask how they made it.

✍️ Note: Use case => viral / word of mouth

Thank you again for sharing this!
