Q1 was our biggest quarter ever, and our hardest

In Q1 we announced our $135M run rate and Series A.

Featured in Forbes 30 Under 30 thanks to the incredible achievements of the Fanvue team.

Launched Cardi B, Alabama Barker, and many more incredible creators.

By March we’d doubled run rate within 4 months.

Many things are broken, sub optimal, outdated. But that’s the nature of a scale up, you have to get comfortable with the fact that there will be plenty of things on fire, always. Focusing on what matters, and accepting everything else can wait is key.

Q1 was our biggest quarter ever. It was also our hardest.
