Hey, everyone, and welcome to the very first episode of Type A Unhinged.

That's right, Di. We're so excited to finally get this off the ground and be connecting with all of you out there who, like us, might find themselves a tad bit driven.

0:23

A tad? That's putting it mildly, Nate. I guess we should probably intro ourselves.

0:27

I'm Di, a co-founder here at Type A Unhinged. I dabble in things like photo and video, website UX, CRM, and branding.

0:36

And I'm Nate, the other co-founder. My world revolves around things like paid social, link building, PR, PPC, marketplaces, and maybe even a bit of direct mail.

0:47

Basically, all the stuff that helps your brand get seen and heard.

0:51

Now, you might be wondering, Type A Unhinged, what's that all about?

0:55

Well, as you might guess, we're both pretty cool.
