Hot Notion Summer
The internet has been EXPLODING with BNE (Big Notion Energy) - here are some of the best bits.
Hey, 2,546 Notion Rebels- ✨40% of you opened last issue✨
If you’re new here - I’m Frances, a Certified Notion Consultant + Founder of The Notion Bar (150+ clients).
It’s a slow-ish summer for me (woo, burnout), but in this slowness I am forming a clear vision of where I want this whole thing to go. *It’s time to work smarter, not harder*. We’ve streamlined… again, but that’s because I genuinely love you all and you deserve for me to be consistent!
Do you know who it hasn’t been a slow summer for? Notion. Who seem to be releasing basically every feature under the sun, including charts (coming soon)!
