Good morning, Scoopers!
Missed connection? A local woman went to Reddit to try and find the cute guy she saw at Hot Topic at the Kenwood Mall during the power outage the other day. Can anyone help these lovebirds connect!?

Sponsored by Notion: AI for Cincinnati Business Owners

We never use AI to write this newsletter. Every word comes from us and we view that as a sacred relationship between us and you.
But behind the scenes, we use AI very intentionally to help our small business run with the non-creative work.
From project management to helping us navigate complex contracts and financial modeling, we use Notion and its AI features to help us streamline the “running the business” part so we can focus on the things only we can do - creativity, content, and community.
That’s why we’re excited about this event hosted by Notion and Tenex during StartupCincy Week.
If you’re not familiar with Notion - ya should be. We have both used it personally and professionally for years. It’s a workspace app where you can build and manage everything from grocery lists and content calendars to running a fully AI-native business out of the box.
If you’re a business owner in the area, Notion is hosting a free workshop Wednesday morning focused on helping business owners build AI-native businesses with Notion as your operating system.
You’ll learn Notion basics and AI essentials. No technical background or experience with Notion or AI tools is required!
The event is free, but by approval only, so apply to join here.
