What are ‘Hot Tips’ about?

Hot Tips categories

• Product management From deciding what to build to building a killer roadmap, how do you make sure your team is focusing on the right thing?
• People & Teams How do you work well with others? How do you keep cool when things heat up? And what makes a great product team?
• Tools of the trade What are your best tools for roadmapping, user feedback or collaboration? Show us how you use them to make things flow.

How do I craft a great tip?

📖 Be as open as you can. Share your insider knowledge. Something people won’t have come across before. A Hot Tip reveals how you do things.

🎨 Show, don’t (just) tell! Talking about your roadmapping process? How about including a screenshot of the tool you use? There’s nothing like seeing your ‘behind-the-scenes’.

💌 Keep it short and personal. Aim for 200 words max, and word it like you’re helping a friend out.

Where do I share my tips?

Every week, we’ll curate the best Hot Tips and share them with the community.
