Here at theSkimm we talk a lot about the challenges we face as women. One big one: Child care – access to it, affording it, and everything in between. Because we’re all about transparency, we wanted to show you some of the child care benefits that we offer to our employees. 💪That’s not all. We’re also partnering with Moms First (formerly Marshall Plan for Moms) to encourage other companies – big and small – to #ShowUsYourChildCare on social media. ➡️ To learn more about the campaign, click here: https://skimmth.is/3CAynX8

We’re in the running for a panel at next year’s SXSW. Vote to help make it happen. Our topic is "Does Motherhood Need a Rebrand?" featuring Lizzy Mathis, founder and Editor-in-Chief of The Cool Mom Co., Jessica Grose from The New York Times, Neha Leela Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled, and theSkimm's Editor-in-Chief Niven McCall-Mazza. Together, we’ll examine the gap between the idealized image of motherhood and real-life challenges like career balance, maternal health, and child care and discuss practical strategies to help women navigate the world of motherhood beyond outdated gender roles. Vote here from 8/6 - 8/18 to help us bring this important conversation to SXSW. https://lnkd.in/eVnzv9JP

Time and time again, we see that the true differentiator at theSkimm is our close relationship with our audience. This year’s Prime Day was no exception. While industry forecasts predicted Prime Day sales falling flat, theSkimm saw a rise in total sales and conversion rates. Our VP of Commerce Samantha Baker spoke with Kayleigh Barber from Digiday about the strategy behind the success: “It’s not just about serving the best deals, but about really focusing on the individual audience and what they’re hoping for.” https://lnkd.in/eyuaTyKs

🗞 Thanks to Digiday for including us in a recent media briefing. This article highlights theSkimm's innovative new approach to personalizing newsletters, and how we're delivering tailored content that resonates with each of our readers. As Digiday notes, "AI and machine learning technology will be used to segment [theSkimm's] audience into specific cohorts based on its email subscribers’ first-party data (such as what readers clicked on in past newsletters). Those cohorts will then be served tailored editorial content as well as specific messaging from advertisers." To read more about our exciting new strategy, check out Digiday's coverage, or get in touch to hear more.
