great question. the only place where we actively shared it was my brother’s [youtube channel](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnePINazJJpbn9FWaq_skQA/) (which I mentioned above).

he didn’t have that many subscribers and we didn’t think many folks would march on over… but, we’ve been pleasantly surprised by how many people were interested.

now, we’re gaining some nice traction through organic search (seo ftw!) but we haven’t built any solid metrics around it quite yet (we need to do that…).

if you have any suggestions, i’m all ears!
