Software & Product Obsessed 🔥🔥
This is what happens when you don't hire a product designer.

This icon was selected for "Performance" pertaining to the fabric of an outdoor chair on West Elm.

Can someone please tell me what the thought process was here…? 😅

It's funny how companies building out an affiliate program don't take the time to talk to their potential affiliate partners about what would make a good program 🤔

Questions to ask your partners:
- What affiliate platforms have you seen the most success with?

New favorite comment from our Notion Failed You video 🙈

First time someone has ever done a reaction video for one of our videos. I must say, this was such a weird feeling 😅

@AndraVomir and I just watched it all holding our breath, it was SO entertaining.

We've been getting a lot of compliments on our latest YouTube video with folks asking us for the secret to the great production quality. Here is my response:

Thumbnails we tested for our last YouTube video that got 10K views 2 days (first for our channel).

Realistic Notion cracked logo by @antxoch and 'conspiracy' themes by @ike_design

Concepts/ideation by the one and only @GeorgeBlackman_

We are incredibly stoked with how these turned out 🔥🔥🔥🔥

10K in 2 days!!!

HUGE milestone, especially considering the video is in the B2B software niche 🥁

Huge shoutout to our core team of talented folks who helped made this happen:
- @GeorgeBlackman_ for concept, ideation, packaging
- Amy (our editor—former editor of LegalEagle)

Notion Failed You 👀

Believe it or not, 13 people worked on this video to bring it to life. Biggest video we've ever made, and by-far the one that @AndraVomir and I are most proud of.

It takes a village.

Now Notion lovers, go tell me how much you hate it in the comments 😄

Just replaced Lemon Squeezy with @polar_sh and I must say, this is a SLICK experience, no coding required. PLUS we're saving money on fees (1% + $.10 cheaper) w/ MOR (taxes) handled by them.

Super happy with the decision to switch!
Thanks @steventey for tipping me off to them!

There's a new kid on the block in the scheduling space and it is putting all the others tools to shame, especially Calendly... 😳💨

It's modern.
It's super fast.
It handles complex scheduling incredibly well.
AND it has a free tier for individuals.
