About MKT1 & EMily Kramer

Emily Kramer is the creator of MKT1 Newsletter & Dear Marketers Podcast.

Hi, I'm Kramer. I am an advisor, newsletter writer, podcast host and investor—but mostly a marketer.

Previously, I built and led marketing teams from the ground up at Asana, Carta, Astro (acq. by Slack), and Ticketfly (acq. by Eventbrite).

Since starting MKT1, I've combined my in-house experience with learnings from working with thousands of marketers, founders, and investors at B2B startups across stages, audiences, and GTM motions. This fuels my newsletter, podcast, frameworks, and approach to advising.

I believe marketing is often misunderstood and underutilized, yet critical to a startup's success. I'm here to help startup leaders figure out how to make marketing their superpower.

MKT1 & MKT1 Capital were co-founded in 2020 & 2022 by Emily Kramer & Kathleen Estreich.
