Yes Plz Keeps You Fueled Weekly With Great Coffee (Sponsor)

One of my goals for this year was to get a “lifestyle” sponsor for my podcast, and I’m happy to announce that Yes Plz coffee has signed on. Something super important to me when partnering with any company is I need to like them, and I need to like the product. Yes Plz passed both of these tests easily. I’m actually drinking some as I write this post!

Before we get started, if you want to try their coffee (which is fantastic) you can get $5 off your first order here. Use the code HIBI at checkout.

Great Coffee

Let me start off by saying I love coffee, and struggle with it a bit. I like to try different blends and mix it up. I was even in a coffee club for a while with a bunch of friends from the WordPress community. We’d do a round-robin of sorts where each month, we’d send a different person coffee from our area.

So when I spoke to Yes Plz, I was excited to hear that you get a different blend with every delivery. I get to try new coffee on a weekly basis! And let me tell you: it’s great coffee. My wife and I have been enjoying each new batch, and look forward to what’s coming next.

As an aside, my parents came to visit recently and since they use single serving coffee at home, I wanted to make sure they got to taste “real” coffee. They loved it.

Great Company Ethos

One thing that struck me about Yes Plz was the company’s ethos. We had a fantastic chat about their tech stack, their hopes for the company, and more.

I love how committed they are to their product. Everything is expertly sourced, roasted, and blended. Not to mention fresh!

How It Works

OK so hopefully I’ve convinced you at this point to try Yes Plz coffee. He’s how it works:

  • You go to their website
  • Pick your size (17 or 23 oz), how often you need beans (1-4 weeks)
  • Yes Plz will ship you a new and unique blend every time. They even include a nifty bookmark with info about the blend and a curated playlist!
  • You can skip a shipment or cancel any time.

Thanks so much to Yes Plz for sponsoring How I Built It. When you get your first batch, let me know what you think in the comments!

    One of my favorite things to do at the end of each year is plan my Yearly Theme. It’s becoming a bit of a tradition and I’ve even got my wife in on the action this year. I find it’s better to have a guiding set of principles than a number of promises I may or may not1 complete. 2020 caused many people to change how they do things, and I was no different. that’s why for 2021, my yearly theme is going to be The Year of Opportunity.

    Ever since I heard about it on Scrubs back in 2006, I’ve been obsessed with the idea of Occam’s Razor.
