This one is all about you.

A few days ago, I sent out a request on X (Twitter) and LinkedIn.

The criteria?

• Not 9-figures
• Not usual suspects
• Not behemoths

Your response was incredible.

In fact, a bit overwhelming. You lovely people forced me to do the unthinkable …

 The Surprise 🎁 

If you write back to this email showing proof-of-purchase from any one of the unsung hero brands …

This is not a contest. There are no “winners.” This is just a cool way to help support David + the rest of the brands.

Reply with a screenshot. I’ll put everyone who does into a Google Sheet. Run a randomizer through ChatGPT.

And announce who gets it on Monday.

With thanks and anticipation,
