As a new manager, it's been incredibly overwhelming trying to figure out the ins and outs of management. There's a silly amount of advice out there but a lot of it falls flat when it comes to how actionable it is.

So, we rounded up 30 lessons from leaders in the trenches on advice they would give to a first-time manager. The bonus is that their advice also serves as great refreshes for more tenured leaders.

No I think it's super valid what you shared. After all, we really approach things with the mindset that if something is ever unclear be it within the product or marketing, it's always on us and not the customer. I.e. if a flow (or copy) that seems super obvious to us and power users doesn't make sense to new faces, that's an us problem, not them.

But yeah we've certainly had a slider in the past with a calculator so could certainly build that back into the page! I'm 100% with you on not making people do the math, especially with the pricing plan/tiered approach we've taken.

Pre-business plan it was super neat to test out what user number was most effective to show on the initial calculator view. Plus it was a great edition for the CS team when sending potential customers ball parks of plan costs.

But this was incredibly helpful feedback so thank you so much. :) If we get the calculator up and running soon I'll be sure to send it your way!

Appreciate that feedback! The existing designs are about 2 years old and we've just spent some time redesigning certain parts of the marketing website (rolling out the new homepage first). Did lots of customer calls and are pretty excited about it!

I'll be sure to ping you once it's live. Alternatively... would love your feedback before it's live if you're up for it :)

hiba at hypercontext.com. We can even loop in our UX designer who is also the marketing designer. :)

Lmk!! Would really love to connect

Aah thanks for that feedback - Out of curiosity, and if you don't have an answer all good it's not your job at all haha, but:

How would you go about explaining our pricing to a peer/what would you change about the page to make it more clear?

Thanks in advance :)

Ahh thanks! To build the initial library, which sat at ~180 goals, it took us about 2 months. A lot of the goals were crowd-sourced/submitted by experts and high performers within specific roles!

Since then, we've been slowly adding to the library, from new roles to new goals for existing roles and it's currently sitting at about 230 goals. If there are any roles that you think we're missing, we're all ears!
