Hi Reader, welcome to my newsletter!

​

I can't express how happy I am that you're here. This newsletter will improve your set of resources/tools and make the most of them to maximize your skills and knowledge.
​

Since May started, I subscribed to a newsletter contest organized by ConvertKit. I've been reading tons of articles on how to create your first newsletter and a landing page for it. To be honest, it's been demanding and challenging but I'm very excited to see how this newsletter goes.
​

Also, at the beginning of this month I was so curious to know if there was a Product Manager's Day but couldn't find it. When my hope was about to end, I found that Mind the Product has been celebrating a similar initiative since 2018.
​

So last week was World Product Day! The name feels broad because Product Managers are not the only ones involved in products. But it's good to have a celebration that remind us the value of this role in the industry.
​

Who knows maybe I should invent a real Product Manager's Day, right?

Pro TIP 💡

​

"Let me look into this", "Let me first discuss with the team and let you know", "I need some time to think about it", "I'll get back to you". Sounds familiar to you? Always ask for ETA. This will help you to convert uncertainity into something actionable and make it tangible.

Your dose of resources 👇

​

📊 Product Feature Presentation Template →

Last week I had to explain a new product feature at work and I didn't had much time to prepare for it. I knew that creating the presentation in PowerPoint will have consumed much of my time. Luckily, I found this template on Miro with simple instructions of how to build a great and powerful presentation. It took me less than 1 hour to build it. Try it yourself!
​

🔧 Krisp • Sound clear in every meeting →

Since the pandemic started, I needed a tool that helped me to cancel noise in meetings. Currently, I live above a restaurant, so sometimes it's common to hear Mariachi during my calls. Krisp came just in time to suppress all this. Now my colleagues can't hear anything but my voice, but they miss Mariachi sometimes.
​

🎙 The Rework Podcast →

A podcast about a better way to work and run your business, from Basecamp and HEY. I first read the Rework book then I found out about this podcast. The book is incredibly shocking and the podcast is not disappointing at all.

​

🎧 Brain Food Playlist →

I usually listen to songs and sing while I'm not in meetings, of course. But when I really need to concentrate and create a presentation my attention is not the same. This playlist helps me to stay focused and provokes an "urgency" to finish on me. I noticed I type even faster and consolidate ideas rapidly. Give it a try and let me know if it helped you to stay more concentrated.
