Productlab

Some milestones require you to pause building, look at the screen, and smile. When I first started building the digital map for ProductMeetups, the goal was straightforward: to make it easier for product professionals to find local events and connect. I never expected that major European communities would start reaching out so quickly. Today, I get to proudly point at the screen. We are officially partnering with Productlab! A massive thank you to Daniele Ronca for seeing the vision and bringing his incredible three-day Berlin conference onto our radar. Having top-tier organizers validate what we are building is the ultimate motivation to keep pushing updates and shipping new feature. To celebrate, Daniele gave us something huge for the community: ⭐ FREE online tickets ⭐ A 50 Euro discount for the in-person event in Berlin Want to grab one of the free spots or the discount code? Head over to the newest post on the ProductMeetups.com company page, follow the quick instructions, and I will personally send you the access code! Thank you to everyone testing the platform, sharing events, and supporting the journey. We are just getting started. #ProductManagement #ProductLab #TechEvents #BuilderJourney #ProductMeetups #Berlin #Networking

Let's take a break from talking about AI Product Managers and talk about product f*ck-ups instead. 😄 I'm excited that our podcast crew Dodane do backlogu is teaming up with the Productlab community for this one! We'll be joined by: - Ravi Mehta – former CPO at Tinder, previously at Facebook and Tripadvisor, and now leading on Reforge - Michelle Parsons – former CPO at Hinge, previously at Spotify and Netflix No polished success stories - just honest conversations about what went wrong, what we learned, and why those failures often teach us the most.

By treating tone, structure, and human-handoff logic as core product features, he shows how a simple change in humanized phrasing can immediately spike CSAT. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ewBFPHB2
