Hey Marvin,
I am going to give free access to leads for about 100 different companies that received the PPP loan recently. I am hoping that companies looking for B2B sales leads would find this useful and test interest in my product https://lionleads.app
Happy hacking!
This is a very good idea and helpful towards economic recovery, too!
Ahoy š
I'm doing research into the managed GraphQL service space. I'm not going to bother trying to have customer conversations this week, so I'm just getting my ducks in a row - understanding the existing services (Hasura, Apollo, AppSync) and looking for an opportunity to make a specific experience easier. I'm wondering if there's room for something like a GraphQL frontend with managed PostgreSQL on the backend.
Count me in for the landing page redesign. reabra.com.br
It was the first thing a built 3 years ago and it needs a new coat of paint. Acceptance criteria:
A potential client can:

So, I spent a whole lot more time than I envisioned - I got really caught up fiddling with the look of it. Not yet finished, but I'll continue pursuing this.
Here's a quick before and after: https://www.loom.com/share/88a8ea864a9b4446b7fefd98ca148854
Working on Pondum.io
I will spend some time working on the new product landing page. Fixing the mobile version and some minor things.
Other than that, I will set final goals for 2021 year.
If I will have some free time I will do some minor improvements in my other product
Will spend most of the time review my performance in 2020 so far.
Other than that, some small fixes for my projects VenturesList and Virtual Mojito.
I might allocate some time to set some goals for my 4th project.
I'm working on the onboarding process for my note taking app. There's definitely some friction new users are encountering with how the app works so I want to work on showing value much quicker.
I don't plan on finishing it this week. It's more about doing the research of what other apps do and trying to see what works or doesn't. I'm uncertain if I need to build any features to smooth out the onboarding or if some small UX tweaks are sufficient.
Great, all the best!
I found this article quite thorough and condensed for quick execution of user onboarding. You might have already read this one before but I love these particular lines a lot:
"Designing for activation is tricky. The last thing you want is to implement a long and extensive onboarding flow when it isnāt necessary. The best apps are usually the most intuitive anyway. The key is to talk to those users, & ask what made them come back, what got them hooked."

I definitely agree with that statement. I've been reading a lot of UserOnboard and while I don't think he says that explicitly, it is definitely implied in all the teardowns he does.
Thanks for sending the article! It looks like it'll be a great read.
What are you building this week?
Iāll be working intermittently on a new css framework. Itās been on my mind for quite sometime. š
