Mike's coming in hot with a new take on how to use the term "session" in our product. What does this mean for our existing users, product, and documentation?

Answer: There is always a new draft!Ben and Sarah are again joined by Mike to discuss content creation and all the different audiences you have when you are a very early-stage start-up.

This week Ben and Mike thought that getting up super early to discuss the current investor/venture landscape was a good idea. They go deep on what has changed for us over the last year of talking to various folks, what we would do differently looking back, and what makes today different than previous moments. Also massive misophonia trigger warning in the intro and outro.Trelliswork is creating a space for hybrid managers to run high-trust teams.Sign up for early access on our website today. www.trelliswork.comCome find us on Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/upcoming/trellisworkOur music is "Crossing Over" by Zephyrs (Debacle Records)

Design is messy and confusing, and vulnerable. Because we have a high-trust team we are able to push back on each other, ask hard questions and be open with each other. Because we have a podcast, we get to do all of that in front of all of you! Come along as we have our first in-depth conversation about a big important future feature, live on the pod. It's messy but we get into some really important ideas.

This week we experienced an uncomfortable moment of vertigo when we couldn't match a simple use case that our generic product seemed capable of attacking, but was maybe not a great match for our story of "who is this product for?" What tools do startups have to attack this problem? Is building a generic first feature a bad approach? How do you guard against "Target User Creep"?

So we have been discussing how we have really focused in on what we are doing and who we are creating Trelliswork for, and it occurs to us that it has been a while since we updated what it is that the product actually does.

This week we talk about how top-level messaging and mission can directly help you find clarity in product decisions when in doubt. Also, we are pretty over the idea that People Managers only employ so-called "soft skills".

Some things have Ben and Sam thinking about pricing and packaging. How do PLG and pricing work? What activities do different pricing models encourage or discourage?

Now that we shipped our alpha our focus has shifted to "How do we get folks into the app and seeing value ASAP?" At the moment you can sign up at our website to be onboarded by the ever reliable Ben Parkison, We think that will probably not scale well... So how do we do it, where do we focus?

The gang starts out focused on the challenges of coming to an agreement about messaging inside a passionate start-up but, in a twist, we actually end up reflecting on how our bond as a team gets us through charged situations in ways other teams might not.
