Thanks a lot! I have read lots of great books about productivity but still feel that I haven't done enough. This will certainly solve the issue. 500 productivity strategies?

@kevinbowles Strategies, tactics, habits, principles - all what self-help books provide.

I used SkillMentor for a long time. Having a free app only about productivity is a great idea. I’m looking forward to seeing what’s next!

The biggest problem when it comes to all kinds of self-help books is that they are not designed to be practical. The book is just a book. I can see that this app may be on something - to provide what books are missing. Is the app paid or free?

@jjhinson It will be free for at least 3 months. Once we decide to convert to the paid version, we will give nice discount for the registered users.

woah looks super interesting so like tools of giants or tribe of mentors but digital?

@temirlan You can look at this app from this perspective, yes. Although, those books are to me very messy and random. What we try to do is to order this knowledge to have smooth paths of development.

Thanks @greg_swierad great idea. My only personal concern is signing up for too many and not doing any of them! Would be great to hear the time of day people are doing this to ensure it's done and not another notification on my phone. Keep up the great work! Also, the UX needs a bit of work, as I have to click in to each section before knowing what it is, perhaps rectangle buttons that fit the longer words might work? Same with when you select a skill, not sure if you want me to select the first option (which turns out to be the way to do it). I LOVE the app, just looking forward to seeing you guys improve and crush it! If you want to chat growth for the app give me a shout I'm on here and can see my work with other startups etc app.growthmentor.com/mark-cann/

@mark_cann Thanks Mark for the thought feedback. We decided for a few major changes, and pretty all you mentioned will be improved. I would love to talk to you, yes!

Hi Greg, nice product and really nice service. I run a mentoring platform, Ei: trying to help others grow and succeed in their professional lives. Wanted to know if you would be open to partner up with us on guest blogging or any other kind of cross marketing. As we are quite complementary, getapy.com (my service) helps your people practice what they learn from your tool and vice versa. DM if interested. Best,
First
