Product #1 · week 5 / 7 · Monday

Hi everyone,

I'm building and launching a bunch of small products this year to practice shipping and to learn more about marketing. Planning to post regular updates about everything I figure out along the way.

My current schedule is Monday - Wednesday, dev work in the morning and marketing in the afternoons. I do client work on other days to pay the bills.

Today's update 👇

Product

Worked on Snailbox (my marketing product) today instead of my new product. Fixed a bug and updated an existing feature to work more smoothly with the Gmail snooze button.

Marketing

Worked on the design of the Snailbox landing page. Added a hero and a testimonial from my (one) customer! 😆 I'm no designer, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. If you want, check it out and let me know what you think. Would love to get some feedback. 🙏

    Hey,
    The website renders half of an empty column on my note 9!

      Hi Philip, this should be fixed now. Do you mind confirming that it no longer happens on your phone? https://snailbox.app

        Hey, looks so much better! I like your design :), now what I am seeing is that the first image gets cut off a little bit, the rest seems fine

          Sweet! Thanks for double-checking. Yeah, that's intentional. That hero image is partially cut off on the right-hand side on most screen sizes. The important parts are still visible.

      Okay, thanks! I'll try to figure out why that is.

    Great looking landing page! And congrats on such a "big named" customer!
