One Collaboration at a Time with Enon Avital of Dapper Notes

Brickey welcomes back Enon Avital to talk about the evolution of Dapper Notes—from handmade side project to a creative brand sustained through collaboration, consistency, and care. Enon opens up about managing artists, keeping production personal, and how structure and systems allowed him to balance family life, a full-time job, and a growing notebook subscription that still feels human .

The conversation expands into creative problem-solving and process: how both Mark and Enon use templates, automation, and AI tools to work smarter, and why discipline is the true foundation of creativity. They also share stories about community—finding trusted collaborators like Dylan, turning chaos into cadence, and discovering how creative friendships can evolve into lifelong support systems .

It’s an episode about building things that last, staying grounded while scaling up, and remembering that great design always starts with great relationships.
