    Rewiring Your Record Collection: Apps That Help Us Rediscover Our Stuff | Ash Ryan Arnwine (Collxn)

    Maybe you own hundreds of vinyl records but keep playing the same five. Streaming algorithms push new music. E-commerce nudges the next purchase. Everything is optimized for acquisition these days but what about the stuff we already have? Ash Ryan Arnwine thinks there's a shift happening: away from accumulation, toward appreciation. Tech that doesn't compete for your attention, but helps you go deeper with what you already own. Is this a tech-enabled walk down memory lane we actually need? Ash Ryan Arnwine built Collxn to explore that question. The app syncs with your Music catalog and sends you one daily email: a random record from your own shelves, plus vibe-matched recommendations and recent artist news. The goal isn't to keep you in the app. It's to get you back to your turntable. After years leading DevRel at Adobe Creative Cloud and Nylas, Ash went solo. Now he's building from Kyoto, Japan, using AI coding agents to ship a product for vinyl collectors who want to rediscover what they already own. 🔑 WHAT WE COVER: - The Collxn concept: Daily "drops" that help vinyl collectors fall in love with their collection again - Building products that value your time, not pull you in for more - The shift from accumulation to appreciation: Creating value from what people already own - Why people collect things: Audiophiles, diggers, traders, nostalgia seekers—it's not one thing - AI coding agents: The double-edged sword of speed vs. depth when building a company as a solo fouder 🎯 FOR: Solo founders, DevRel professionals, collectors of anything, and builders interested in the shift from "get more" to "go deeper." 🔗 CONNECT: Collxn: https://www.collxn.com Subscribe to Megashift for more cool looks on on technology and business transformation #VinylCollecting #Collxn #SoloFounder #DevRel #AIcodingAgents #Rediscovery #Megashift Hosted on Acast.

    Inside Squarespace's Circle Program: Crafting Partner Ecosystems That Deliver (Sarah Greisdorf)

    In this episode of Megashift, Rob Kleiman sits down with Sarah Greisdorf, who leads the community team at Squarespace representing its Circle program: a community of over 100,000 web designers, freelancers, and developers building Squarespace websites for clients. Sarah shares the origin story of the Circle program, which launched nearly 10 years ago around a shared passion for the Squarespace platform. From those humble beginnings, the community has evolved into a strategic growth engine for Squarespace, complete with a monthly talk show, an annual conference (Circle Day), educational courses, and a vibrant online gathering space where members teach and support each other. We dive into how Sarah's team measures impact of this community program through website subscriptions and revenue, the power of network effects (one designer can mean 100+ websites), and how they're leveraging AI tools to synthesize insights from hundreds of partners across their ecosystem. The conversation wraps with Sarah's and Rob chat about resurgence of in-person community experiences and why lightweight, creative gatherings may be the key to driving lasting loyalty in an age of content commoditization.
