We give you 3 great reasons to continue hanging out with us, your last chance to stay in the loop, plus a roundup of the best investing and startup news of 2021.

​

Hi there, 👋
​
This is epic: You opened our email!

If you haven't read one of our newsletters for a while, it's great to have you back - finally.

And if you're new here, you're probably wondering why we're so excited to see you?

When you signed up to the investing.io newsletter, we did a couple of backflips (Olympic style) and a Haka.

That's because we enjoy bringing you the best investing and startup news this side of Mars.

What's so important?​
​
This is what happens when you open our emails:

• You get valuable news, views and resources twice weekly
• We provide sneak peeks at what's happening inside our investing community
• You stay on our newsletter list

And when you don't open our emails?

We stop emailing you.

If you haven't seen us in your inbox for a while, will you please give us another chance?

If the answer is "yes" we might try a Nollie double flip - or maybe not.
But, we'll be ecstatic.

If not, that's okay too.
​Just head to the end of this letter and hit unsubscribe.

For all our new subscribers, we hope you stick around for a while.
To ensure you don't miss out on your newsletter, please hover over our address and click on "Add to contacts."

Thanks!

Today, we've put together something special for all our new subscribers - and the OGs who have stuck around.

Because 99% of our newsletters are 'for your eyes only', we don't offer a public newsletter archive.

That's why we're sharing the best of what you missed before you joined us.

You'll see:

• The most popular newsletters of 2021
• You clicked the 'ish' out of these 4 tools
• 6 of the best Free Rolls you didn't know existed

Let's get to it.

And thanks again for being here.

​​You will quickly find up-to-date logos, colors, fonts and images for just about any online brand.

All it takes is a click to download an image or logo for your needs.

​It's probably a good idea to head over there and claim your brand.​

​You can do this by entering a company email to get your brand verified. It's also possible to suggest numerous edits using their online form.

​You can use Brandfetch inside every major design tool, such as Adobe, Canva, Figma and Miro.

This saves you time, by automating the search for colors and logos etc., and getting a brand's assets sent straight to your tool of choice.

📗 Turn Docs Into a Knowledge Base

We're often frustrated by the limitations of Google Drive because it's not the most user-friendly way to create a knowledge base.

​It's almost impossible to move folders around, to track documents within separate folders or to see at a glance which docs belong to a particular project.

​Spaceli solved the problem.

​​It turns Google Drive into a hub for everything you're working on.​

​Use it to track your personal notes and ideas.

​Part of a team?

Spaceli lets you create a single source of project documentation for everything you're working on together.

​The nested tree menu makes it a breeze to organize files so people can find them.

​And it uses our favorite four-letter word - FREE.
