In today’s episode, we’re talking to Chase Dimond, Head of Growth at The Discoverer, a community of more than 1.8 Million travelers across their social media accounts and newsletter. I actually met Chase originally back during college, when he was working on one of his first projects. Chase is an entrepreneur at heart, and in one of his first jobs out of college was with StudentBrands—formerly known as StudyBlue before it was purchased by Barnes a Noble). At that job, Chase was essentially tasked with figuring out how to grow the business. In his early twenties, he was building and running the company’s marketing team, brokering major partnerships, and testing out new growth tactics that netted the company major returns. After that, Chase went on to start and grow a couple of his own projects—one of which was in the social media space and got acquired by their largest competitor. All of this led Chase to meet his business partner at The Discoverer, where he’s led the charge on growing the company’s email list now to more than 450,000 subscribers in just 7 months. 7 months!
