July 2021 Highlights
Growing awareness! Landing page rehauled, ambassadorship program launched, partnerships with other projects!
July was a month focused on growing awareness. Our ambassadorship program pays you to help us spread the word about Handshake, our landing page is being used to test what messaging sticks best for new visitors, and we've been partnering with other dWeb projects to increase usage. Reply to this email if you have more suggestions for how we can supercharge our growth!
