Weekly Inspo Vids - Week One
Hi there,
Can you believe it?! The day has finally arrived for Weekly Inspo Vids to kickoff the ‘22-23 school year. We’ve added over two thousand administrators to our list since May. I’ve been looking forward to this kickoff email all summer.
As our returning subscribers know, I’ll send you a short email each Saturday morning that you can include in your weekly newsletter to your teaching staff.
A few nuts and bolts for this year:
Emails are now delivered on Saturday mornings. I heard from quite a few folks that Saturdays would be ideal. You weekend work warriors get a lot done over your two days of bliss, so I want to accommodate you as best I can.
Including videos in your newsletter. To include videos in your newsletter, simply click on the video, copy and paste the URL into whatever template you use, and fire away. Don’t forget to check out the optional caption beneath each video.
We’re going the extra mile. Starting the first week of September, I’ll start sending you a few extra goodies on a weekly and monthly basis. My goal is always to save you time and stress. I hope to deliver. [Update: See more details on these extra benefits here]

Question: In what year was the first handheld mobile phone released?
Answer: The Motorola DynaTAC 8000X was released in 1983 and was the first cellular device that allowed phone calls without any attached cords. It looks pretty awesome. Have a look.
