Hey Alex! 😏 )

Was this here in the community or someone at Digital Oyster? It’s definitely worth an upvote in the Feature Request category ➕

As for that .gif… I was definitely caught off guard 😂 but then it occurred to me, is that from Game of Thrones? That’s got to be one of the worst (or best) villains ever created.

Thanks for taking the time to introduce yourself! See you around in the forums! 👋

Hiii Nicholas! 👋
(AKA landing page feedback extraordinaire)

This begs the question, should we just create a category for Unbounce users looking for freelance work, or collaboration opportunities? I’d be curious to see what other members would think about that 🤔

Fun fact about Forrest Gump… I won a contest at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co. in Maui for knowing the most Forrest Gump trivia. My winning answer was the name of the bus driver who picks up Forrest on his way to school 🏆 I should put that on my LinkedIn.

Thanks again for all your commitment, it’s invaluable!! 🙌 :spinbounce:

Hey Zoe!

First offf…

I definitely didn’t know that Australia was known for that! I would’ve figured it would be something about dingos or shrimp on the barbie.

I’m hearing about this more and more often. I know @Alex_Scovell is in the process of this to mitigate any Wordpress stress. I’ve heard arguments going both ways about making landing pages feel like a website, but I’m thinking if it’s easier to operate, the better!

I’ve looked at this through an Instagram lens and good lord, I don’t think I’ve ever seen such beautiful looking meals in my life.

Nice call on Tom Hanks movies, those both pull on the ol’ heart strings ❤️😭

Keep kicking ass in the community (and everywhere else!)

👋

Where are you from? Brighton, England - born in Papua New Guinea

What kind of business are you in? And how long have you been doing it? I started Digital Oyster a few (3-4) years back, which is going from strength to strength. We specialise in Native Marketing and run volume lead gen campaigns.

Right now we’re up to around 12 people and approaching 10m annual turnover.

I have been in marketing for around 17 years - first as a trainee list broker when i was 18.

What are you working on in Unbounce right now? Do you need any help? - Like Nicolas’s answer - everything!

Unbounce underpins all of our campaigns - that’s allot of pages were continuously working on and optimising.

Do we need any help? - almost certainly, but i’m not sure with exactly what right now… I was told the other day it would be extremely helpful to be able to apply pops / sticky bars across multiple domains.

What’s your favourite Tom Hanks film? hmm just googled Tom Hanks films to refresh my memory - theres allot of good ones!

I’m struggling to pick one from:

Catch Me if You Can
Saving Private Ryan
The Green Mile - this one - it’s had to say any are better than this!

The Terminal looks interesting - I’ll have to watch that…

Hey @Jess and all!

I’m in the land of meat pies, the best waves and sunshine (Australia). I’m from Melbourne but have been moving my way up the east coast and settled in my dream beach life location, Coolangatta (on the Superbank for any surfers in here).

I have two businesses (both that I use Unbounce for a lot!) –

  • I run a boutique creative agency – https://ww.sevahcreative.com
    Mostly for SMBs, startups and entrepreneurs. I started this in August '17 after I moved on from my last full-time job (byeeeee #joblife) and it’s grown from there.

Right now, I’m working through our many Unbounce pages to get them compliant with the GDPR changes coming soon. Not the most fun task! Otherwise, I have a few client projects with Unbounce pages that are launching soon.

Favourite Tom Hanks film has got to be The Green Mile … or Turner and Hooch. 🐕

Favourite GIF – gosh so many! Let’s go with my spirit animal.

I suppose I can start!

I’m Jess! I’m the Online Community Strategist here at Unbounce, and I love all things community! I’ve been part of the Unbounce fam for almost two years and loving every minute of it. Mostly because I get the best of both worlds (the team and the customers) 💙

I like to think of myself as being like Morgan Freeman in The Shawshank Redemption… I’m the guy who can get you things (except, y’know, I’m a woman… And we’re not in prison). What I mean is, if you’re looking for some help in your campaigns, if I’m not the person who can help you directly, I know someone who can.

I grew up here in rainy Vancouver, and when I’m not at the office I’m either…

  • Tending to my many houseplants
  • Playing softball / soccer / volleyball / golf
  • Cheering on the Vancouver Canucks (despite where they are in the standings…)

My favourite Tom Hanks film is a tie between A League of Their Own, Toy Story (all of them), and Catch Me If You Can. (Fun fact, here at the Unbounce office, one of our technical support team members has earrings with Tom Hanks’ face on them.)

I lurk here in the community all day, every day, so let’s get to know each other!

Seeya around!
