The rapid success of beehiiv as a newsletter platform is largely due to the tenacity of its founding team. Tyler Denk, co-founder and CEO, joins The Demo Day Podcast to share how his lifelong passion for startups has evolved into the fulfillment of his childhood dream—becoming a successful founder. Before beehiiv, Tyler was the second employee at Morning Brew in a role that spanned engineering, product, and growth—responsible for building the renowned referral program and bespoke tech ecosystem that facilitated the company to scale to a successful $75m exit in 2020. After a stint at Google as a product lead at YouTube Music, he left to cofound beehiiv—a newsletter platform to fuel creators' ability to create, monetize, and grow their audience. Over 1 billion emails per month are sent on the platform from over 20,000 active newsletters. On the side, Tyler enjoys building cool projects, most recently Big Desk Energy.
