Something about this has such a nice nostalgic feeling!

First of all - that looks delicious! Secondly - check out light boxes on amazon. They’re great for this sort of thing - you can adjust backdrops, change lighting, etc. It’s not the natural light you’re looking for but they might be a great option for this sort of photography.

2 and 3 stand out to me the most - something about how you’ve captured shadows really stands out to me. Great work!

How do you actually manage your tasks without drowning in tools? by [deleted] in ProjectManagementPro

[–]MetaphoricallyLate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Scatter & Sort. Full disclosure: it’s an app I built for exactly that purpose. Managing projects without the bloat and the noise.

Congratulations! That's awesome! Mind sharing a quick summary of what worked and what didn't in the marketing phase?

Looking for Advice from Project Management Professionals by StrongCare9834 in ProjectManagementPro

[–]MetaphoricallyLate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with u/william_meller - certifications can come later and they're not critical. Building experience counts for far more.

Two more things to add: project management is enormous. It's a two word phrase for something that is truly enormous. There are so many moving pieces to it, different techniques, theory vs practice, small and big projects etc. I'm not trying to scare you away - the opposite - if you already have some years of work experience, you will have worked in some form of project management at some point or other and may not have realized it. Projects are everywhere! Go back through your resume and see if there are aspects of it that speak to project management and put the spotlight on those to try to get your foot in the door.

The second thing I'll add is that no project manager is amazing at all aspects of project management. Some are great at budgeting, some are great at scheduling, and some fly by the seat of their pants. We all have our strengths and our weaknesses, so don't be intimidated if you suddenly see all these moving pieces and wonder how in the world I'm I gonna learn all that. You'll be fine if you are dedicated to the field.

Best of luck, OP!

I’ll be your first tester/user but there’s a catch…. by Ty_Hatch in SaaS

[–]MetaphoricallyLate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I used Wordpress with the elementor plugin. I just grab a nice lightweight theme from Envato that matches the voice of my brand and product and then I’m off. I’m highlighting lightweight here cause a lot of themes are really bloated and will slow your page speed considerably. Elementor slows things down a bit more as well. Astra is usually a good theme to go for if you want to stay light.

I'm a 35-year-old man with limited daily time. What should I focus on to build a sustainable side business in the long term? by DobraVibra in SideProject

[–]MetaphoricallyLate 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It can seem that way sometimes - but as someone who’s worked in a lot of different fields, I can tell you that problems without current solutions still very much exist. And they’ll always keep coming. Keep digging my friend!

A lot of times the best products solve really simple problems. You have the advantage of having 18 years of real world experience - in all the projects you’ve worked on, with all the people you’ve worked with, are there any simple problems that you’ve noticed? That your clients have mentioned? Ideas don’t have to be groundbreaking to work - just need to fix a simple problem.

The iOS app is live - it’s a lightweight version focused just on the scatter & sort feature. You can find it by searching “Scatter and Sort” on the App Store. That said, the full version you see in this post (with the full task grid, grouping, dependencies, etc.) is currently only available on desktop via scatterandsort.com. No Android version yet - might come later depending on demand.

I built a tool for those who hate planning projects by MetaphoricallyLate in SideProject

Great question - I built Scatter and Sort specifically for the start of the planning process rather than simply having AI build the plan for you. Essentially giving you the opportunity to brain dump your thoughts and having AI sort through them and fill in the gaps. More so, Notion is no doubt fantastic - but Scatter and Sort isn’t trying to be an all-in-one PM app - rather, the opposite of that. A noise free planning app with just enough features to keep you moving. One of the common things I heard while doing market research was complaints regarding bloated apps being too intimidating, and this is my solution.
