Above The Fold

Episode 63 | The Keyboard Cover That Went Viral And The Founders Behind Tippy Type


Listen Later

This week, I sat down with two of my favorite entrepreneurial baddies, Sara and Chloe of Tippy Type—a product built for nail girlies and typers everywhere.

We talked about how they turned a scrappy prototype into a viral business, why they skipped paid ads entirely, and how listening to their community (and yes, even the trolls) shaped every product decision they’ve made. We also get into the unglamorous side of brand building: burnout, spreadsheet marathons, and what it really takes to run a company with your bestie and not lose your mind.

If you’re building a product, dreaming up your own brand, or just love hearing how chaos can turn into a cult hit, this episode’s for you.

🎧 Listen now to learn how Tippy Type became the keyboard cover for long nails—and why slow growth might actually be your secret weapon.
