Paid members get extra support, a closer connection to the Taming the Trunk community and access to the growing practical guide library.
Youāll get a premium chat thread each month where you can ask questions, post screenshots, share frustrations or get help thinking through your Evernote setup.
Youāll also get exclusive Evernote-related interviews, bonus content and practical guide books on specific Evernote features. These guides are designed to be clear, screenshot-led and easy to come back to when you need a refresher.
Thereās one guide available at the moment, with more planned on useful Evernote features and workflows.
And yes, your support helps me keep building Taming the Trunk. Iād love to dedicate one or two days a week to this Substack, and paid members help make that possible.
Hey, Iām Jon, an Evernote Certified Expert whoās been hooked on the app since around 2008. We donāt mention the two-year dalliance with OneNote around 2017š¤.
Evernote is the first app I open in the morning and the last one I shut at night. Over the years, itās become the digital home for almost everything I do, from client work to personal life and big ideas. And I do it all without tagsš«Ø.
Before I got into digital content, training and consultancy, I spent 17 years in radio and TV, interviewing some famous and some not-so-famous people. Always curious, always learning.
These days, my day job is helping people make sense of email marketing, Mailchimp, podcasting and content marketing. Taming the Trunk is where I share what Iāve learned from years of using Evernote in the real world.
If you need a podcast guest to talk about Evernote then hit me up. Always happy to chat about the elephant.
I publish every Wednesday and Friday. If the newsletter helps you, makes Evernote easier, or gives you a few useful ideas, Iād love you to join the herd.
