The work, the gap but there's a lot happening around!
I have slacked a little and I do apologise for that!
It's been a while since I last wrote my last newsletter. And yeah, the inconsistency kicked it with this as well. I promised to hit you up every week with something valuable.do want to take a moment to apologise if you set a level of expectation from me here.
But in all honesty, with a ton of content being planned and rolled into Socials, working on Rivista and ensuring I am still delivering the optimum experience to all the clients with us at Team Codesign is a lot to keep up with.
In between all this, I don't miss out on experiencing Nature every weekend here in Pune.
Isse yaad aaya...
I won't be here for a month and will miss trekking on Sahyadri.
But I do have a trip planned for next month.
I will be entirely off the grid for a week.
A much-needed break which I haven't taken in a long-long time.
I am headed to Kedarnath, hoping this will go all well. This has been waiting on my travel checklist for ages. But I am glad that I am finally doing it.
Work Updates
I have been carrying the load of working with a couple of clients on the side, but I have shifted most of my focus towards Rivista as we're inching closer to the launch.
Rivista is coming as a mobile app which will soon be available for everyone to download.
The app's first version will allow Individuals and freelancers to get client reviews seamlessly.
So if you are a freelance designer or web developer, you can generate a form and pass on a URL to the client where they can quickly write a testimonial for you.
OR if you know someone working offline in sales, customer service, stylist, interior designer, teacher, or any solo artist who can't keep track of appreciation given to them by their customers. Rivista comes in right there.
So if this sounds interesting to you, sign up for our beta release. Share with your friends as well.
Learnings
I am learning a lot about Product Management these days. I have had the experience of managing teams while running my agency, but doing it specifically for a product is new for me. There are a few intersections of what you do as a UX designer and Product owner.
I have been on this journey for the last eight months, and I have practically had my lessons!
Wrap
Well, that's all for this time. I will try to come back with specific dedicated topics very soon but till then, wishing you well for the upcoming festive season.
Ending with tweet of the week!
