Written for Founders & Product Leaders
As a founder and product leader, I've been obsessively studying the worldās best companies and taking notes on the various product frameworks, strategies and ideas that Iāve come across.
I decided to turn my notes into articles and publish them for other product-focused founders like me who are curious about that product āx factor.ā But itās not just head knowledge - there are tons of real-world examples from successful products to help illustrate the frameworks IRL.
The hope is to provide product leaders like you the practical frameworks to think about product in creative, impactful, and strategic ways.
āFun, insightful deep-dives into the best products. Great lessons for product builders of all stripes!ā
What to Expect
Every Tuesday we explore a new product framework or strategy from one of the best products on the planet, putting language around the gut feelings that so often drive the most innovative product decisions.
Every Friday I do a roundup of my top 5 product-related Tweets from the week. Itās a crowd favorite to send everyone into the weekend with a smile on their face :)
āIt isn't superficial product advice such as āfail fastā. The content is clearly being written by someone who is passionate and knowledgeable.ā
