Hey there, Sumo-ling!

We’re closing out the month of love with the heartbreaking split of legendary duo, Daft Punk. (They wear helmets, couldn't they have at least hired stand-ins to keep the dream alive?)

Nevertheless, we’re carrying on with some rockin’ wins from us and our partners, plus a giveaway that has us clicking our heels and saying, “there’s no place like a new home, there’s no place like a new home.

AppSumo news

We have a winner!

During our Black Friday 2020 giveaway, we gave one lucky Sumo-ling the chance to steal Noah’s fully-loaded 2018 Tesla and $10K. Well, we’re pleased to announce the vehicle has been officially swiped by Tony, owner of Monarch Butterfly Garden in Minnesota! Watch us hand over the keys and congratulate him on his new ride.

The good place

In our recent Meet the Makers post, we gathered TabsFolders, CLOSEM, LinkHelp, and more to get the lowdown on their Marketplace launches. Our case study sheds light on their challenges, growth, and tips for success. What about you? (Yes, you.) Got a SaaS, ebook, or digital good you want to cash in on? Submit your product!

Escape route

Ready to switch out your picturesque Zoom background for the real thing? You're in luck. Our Work Anywhere for a Year Giveaway is giving you the chance to create a new personal office in your dream locale. Two Sumo-lings will snag $24K of Airbnb credits, and 10 Sumo-lings will score our Office-to-Go Swag Bag, complete with a portable monitor, noise-canceling headphones, WiFi extender, and more. Enter the giveaway now!

Join the fam

Think you have what it takes to join our hard-working, taco-obsessed team? Great! (We know you nodded yes.) We’re looking for an engineering manager to guide, mentor, and shape our growing team; a product designer that can eloquently mash up UX thinking and design execution; and a software engineer that can swiftly implement cutting-edge, customer-facing product solutions.

Lauren, Support Team Lead

If you had a talk show, who would your first three guests be? Steve Carell, Amy Pohler, and Dan Levy. Who wouldn't want to see that?

You have to sing karaoke, what song do you pick? "Baby Got Back." I know every word. Shout-out to my mama for playing it in our CD player the whole summer of 2008.

Links we're lovin'

Across the tech industry, writing roles have evolved into well-designed content experiences that are essential for success. See how Microsoft and other UX writers are shaping design through language framework.

Clubhouse—no, not Mickey Mouse’s (parents, you know the theme song)—is a drop-in audio chat app that's taking social networking by storm. The emergence of Silicon Valley’s hottest consumer startup is the next step in our social sharing timeline. But what took audio so long to follow the same path as text, images, and video?

Traveling is limited right now, but virtual space travel isn’t. Get a front-row seat to NASA's Perseverance Rover’s descent and touchdown on Mars after a historic journey of 293 million miles. It’s out of this world.

You know the urge to do the opposite of what you were just told to do (or not do)? “You burned your hand, didn’t you?” Well, that negative knee-jerk reaction is actually psychological reactance, a rarely discussed reflex that’s holding you back. Learn how to lessen its power in "The Real Reason Why You Sabotage Your Own Goals."

Sing it with us, 🎶 Oh remote workers just wanna have fun 🎶. So grab your go-to beverage and recreate the atmosphere of your favorite bar, or give yourself facial hair or a fun new lip color with Zoom's Studio Effects beta.

And that's a wrap! See y'all next time.

❤️ and 🌮,
The AppSumo Team
