Dear Marker Reader,

Somehow, we made it to Friday. Whatever we thought our problems were a week ago, have been supplanted with a barrage of unpredictability — markets, a pandemic, whiplash economic projections, all while homeschooling on the fly.

READ: Amazon’s Pandemic Savior Complex

At Marker, we can promise you one thing during this turbulence — we’ll be here to help you find clarity amid the chaos. Whether it’s an exhaustive coronavirus checklist for CEOs, how to raise money during a financial crisis, or lean startup pioneer Steve Blank on “How Your Startup Can Survive a Worldwide Pandemic,” our team will be working harder than ever to be your real-time guide.

READ: How Cameo Turned D-List Celebs Into a Monetization Machine

And for those moments that you just need to exhale — and you will — we’ll provide our version of infotainment: fascinating narratives filled with incisive business lessons. This week’s is a rollicking examination of D-List celebrity startup, Cameo, the most improbable two-sided marketplace to succeed since AirBnB. (Come for Gilbert Gottfried, stay for the actress who played Major Margaret “Hot Lips” Houlihan on M*A*S*H.)

So reboot, relax, refocus, and catch up on that reading this weekend — and we’ll see you next week.
