It's hard keeping all artwork and graphics in one place when you're creating special edition books and products that require high quality (and extremely large) files. We tried several cloud-based services, but when our company expanded, we had to expand our storage and get more organized. We now manage all our creative assets and processes in one place using Air (air.inc). Our team members upload assets into folders, add labels, and Air does the rest to make imagery and files easy to find for anyone in the company. Using this platform has made content management easy.

Such a great day for LitJoy! Thank you Utah Business!
July Founder Friday 📚 What a pleasure it was to hear from Alixandra Lewis Burrows and Kelly Dearth of LitJoy Crate this morning! We loved learning more about the beginnings of their direct-to-consumer e-commerce company and how they thrive as co-founders and co-CEOs. Couldn’t make it? Stay tuned for a recap in August.

We have been working on so many licensing deals the past several years, it made sense that we send two of our directors to Licensing Expo in Vegas. Debra Hawkins and Kara Hobson learned some valuable information, met great people (Paris Hilton!), discovered new brands, and planned some amazing things for the future of LitJoy.

We are so proud of our fearless leaders Kelly Dearth and Alixandra Lewis Burrows who shared how LitJoy began at Founder Friday with Utah Business. Thank you to Melanie Paris Jones and Mekenna Malan for making this happen!
If I didn’t have a massive girl crush on all of these women before…wow…I sure do now. Kelly Dearth and Alixandra Lewis Burrows turned an elevated book club and $1000 startup capital into a nearly-eight-figure book subscription box business — LitJoy Crate. We learned about how they prioritized the use of the funds in their early days (everything went to customer experience and branding). We learned what it means to be “deep bookish” where physical books become trophy collections after reading on a Kindle or Audible. We learned a LOT about humility, hustle and audacity. I’m in awe. Wish you were here. Shout out to Mekenna Malan who moderated a beautiful conversation. Look for a written summary of this discussion by Beth Taylor in the August issue of Utah Business.

We love it when a book comes together and we have to give it up this time to our awesome artists in this special edition of Marissa Meyer's Heartless. This tragic love story of Catherine and Jest explores the origins of Wonderland's iconic villain, the Queen of Hearts. The cover and slipcase art is by @BethGilbert_Art. The tip-in art pages are by @Gabriella.Bujdoso and @DianaDworak, and the endpaper art is by @Nicole.Deal.Art! We are so grateful to work with amazing artists.

How did we survive before Slack!?! We've used a few different platforms for company communication over the years, but when we started using Slack a few years back, how we worked together changed dramatically. One of our favorite things about Slack is creating channels not just for day-to-day work tasks to increase productivity, but also for company community. We have a channel on Slack that we call "Share the Joy." This channel is for employees to share and celebrate with one another things going on outside of work. We love how this has made LitJoy feel more like a family.
