Columbus Resume Revolution: Your Next Career Move

Join us for an in-person gathering where we'll dive into the practical side of resume building and career transitions. Whether you're actively job hunting, considering a career change, or just want to refresh your resume, this is a low-pressure space to get real feedback and learn from others in similar situations. We'll walk through what actually works in today's job market, talk through common resume mistakes, and give you a chance to get eyes on your own materials if you want to bring them along. You'll also meet other people in Columbus who are thinking seriously about their next move. This event is for anyone at any stage of their career—early career professionals, career changers, people returning to the workforce, or seasoned professionals looking for a new direction. You don't need to have a polished resume or know exactly what you're looking for. We're all here to figure it out together and help each other out along the way. We'll have time for group discussion, one-on-one feedback if you want it, and just connecting with people who get it. Grab a spot on the RSVP list so we know you're coming and can plan accordingly. We're looking forward to seeing you there.

Judgment in the Fog: Making Better Product Decisions in the Age of AI

**The Product Skills AI Can't Replace** AI can synthesize research, analyze data, and prioritize work. But when everything feels important and there’s no clear right answer, how do you decide what matters most? Join **ProductTank Columbus** and **Mike Belsito, Head of Product Evangelism at Pendo and Mind the Product**, to explore three practical habits for cutting through the noise, uncovering the real problem behind stakeholder requests, and prioritizing work that makes the greatest impact. **AI can help you process more information. Great product judgment helps you know what to do with it.** Doors open at **5:30 PM**, and the talk begins at **6:00 PM**, followed by Q&A and time to connect. Food and drinks will be provided by ZoCo, our generous host. Parking is available directly behind ZoCo and in the lot across the street. \*Towing will not be enforced in the paid lot on the day of the event.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Analytics in Publishing

**Seven Portals, No North Star: Running Analytics for a Newsroom That Has to Pay the Rent** Every morning I open seven affiliate portals, Google Analytics, our beehiiv dashboard, and whatever social media is saying about us today. Then I try to answer one question: what do we do now? In other words: how do I drive more revenue, while preserving the integrity of the brand? At [Daily Drop](https://www.dailydrop.com), a daily travel rewards newsletter, the content team runs on newsroom time while the business runs on revenue time. Those two clocks are often in conflict. There’s no single KPI to hide behind; we have to grow the list and turn readers into revenue without becoming the newsletter nobody opens anymore. Many days those goals fight each other. This session is an view into the analytic strategy behind a newsletter-first business. I’ll cover which numbers I check first, which ones lie to me, how to tell a good new subscriber from a hollow one, and why depending on other people’s affiliate programs feels a lot like sharecropping. I’ll also share how to turn findings into direction I can give a team of writers and content creators. You’ll leave with a practical way to decide what matters when everything does. **About Our Speakers** [April Wilson](https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprilwilson/) is Director of Content and Conversion at Daily Drop, where she leads the team behind a daily travel rewards newsletter and spends an unreasonable part of every morning inside affiliate portals. She has 24 years of executive leadership experience across analytics, content strategy, and healthcare revenue cycle software. She is the author of seven books on healthcare revenue cycle management and the consumer guide Your Hospital Bill Survival Guide, and she writes the only weekly RCM 2030 newsletter on LinkedIn. April holds a master’s in sociology and has taught at Otterbein University, Southern Methodist University, and Stanford. Long before any of that, she was the first official band photographer for the Dave Matthews Band, back when they were the crappy local act. She is also totally Tim’s cousin, no matter what he tells you. **Thanks to our 2026 sponsors:** [Clarivoy](https://www.clarivoy.com/), [What Box Consulting Group](https://www.whatboxconsultinggroup.com/), [Conductrics](https://www.conductrics.com/), and [Piwik PRO](https://piwik.pro/) More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com/)
