Hi! My name is Justin Mares. I formerly ran growth at developer tools company Exceptional (acquired by Rackspace in March of 2013).

While there, I taught myself how to become a technical marketer and use tools like SQL to run important analyses on our customer data. Along with learning the basics of HTML, CSS and Python, I've found learning to become a more technical marketer has been one of the most valuable investments in myself I've ever made.

In addition, I'm the co-author of Traction Book, a book about how startups can get traction. For the book, we interviewed Jimmy Wales (founder of Wikipedia), Paul English (founder of Kayak), Dharmesh Shah (HubSpot founder) and pulled together an actionable framework for how startups should think about getting traction and distribution.
I also founded an ecommerce company, Kettle & Fire, that's on a multi-million dollar run rate in just a few months. Hi, my name's Nathaniel. I'm the co-founder of Programming for Marketers, a web course teaching technical skills to marketers that provides free email lessons as well as larger paid material.

I also work on the marketing team at Zapier where I support their content marketing division, writing blog posts and ebooks related to startups, internet marketing, and productivity.

Prior, I was a lecturer on public speaking at Carnegie Mellon University, and one of the co-founders of Tailored Fit, a Pittsburgh startup that provided personalized clothes shop
