I like to keep debugging workflows as lightweight as possible — no heavy vendor contracts, no bloated dashboards I never open, and minimal noise in my inbox. Over the years I’ve found a sweet spot: a small session-replay layer that records the exact UI interactions needed to reproduce issues,...

I’ve watched too many promising B2B SaaS trials fizzle out because onboarding was treated like an afterthought. A great product is necessary but not sufficient — the way you introduce new users to value determines whether they stay. In this...
I used to dread onboarding new freelancers to projects because every time it started the same way: a big folder of assets, a 60-page brand PDF nobody read, and an endless thread of Slack messages clarifying tiny design choices. Over the years I...
Choosing a CMS for a creator site feels like deciding on a home: location, future-proofing, maintenance, and how much DIY you want to do matters more than the pretty façade. I’ve built portfolio sites, membership experiments, and small product...

I used to dread opening the app store inbox. Thousands of reviews, a handful of gold nuggets, and the rest—a fog of one-off complaints, praise, and emojis. Over the years I developed a practical system for extracting real product insight from that...
I use heatmaps almost every week when assessing product pages that underperform. They’re one of those deceptively simple tools: a visual layer over your interface that instantly tells you where people look, click, and scroll — and, more...
I run customer interviews all the time — for product decisions, landing pages, onboarding flows, and early pricing experiments. Over the years I learned the hard way that polite feedback is the enemy of useful insight: people will be kind, vague,...
I often face the same dilemma when reviewing product analytics: a feature isn’t performing as expected, but is it broken, or is it simply undiscovered? Over the years I’ve learned that a clear set of analytics thresholds — combined with...
