It's that time again – add your recent wins to @usewinnny 🙌

How do you manage ads on small sites? I manage about 8 monthly subscriptions for ad panels, across 2 of my sites The monthly subs are via @Gumroad and @lemonsqueezy but I never know when a customer cancels a sub So I set up a small Zap automation to email me when they do

Even better → 1K page views/uses on @userrstory since launch a month ago 🔥 x.com/markbowley/...

Me reading through each omgstats.com stat, even though I've read them all already

This was just posting my blog back catalogue for Starrt.co, one a day, on my @Starrt_co acc I've been trying to set that up as a custom API workflow for ages, but it was taking too long - did it in 5 mins with Claude x.com/markbowley/...

I've now added gif option to the downloads on userrstory.com

This looks promising on userrstory.com

Have you noticed? AI didn’t really replace work. It replaced the waiting. Now drafts are instant, turnaround is assumed, and everyone expects more, faster.

My prototype userrstory.com has had a good number of uses in it's first month 🚀 — It's a free app to explain your product ideas through a visual story framework

Me researching and adding stats on omgstats.com over the weekend

I've now implemented a Weekly Nudge email on Winnny.com for users who've signed up Just a simple automation, done with a free plan on @emailoctopus

When you share your build progress The markup shows your reasoning "Moved this here because..." "Testing this variation..." "Still broken but shipping anyway" Annotations = narration Makes your build log actually readable hndmark.com

An OMG stat for sure

Feedback from a hndmark.com Pro user: "I'm using this daily. Simple, quick and looks great"

POV: You're a designer and someone just gave you feedback

Everyone tells you to “celebrate small wins” Productivity gurus on social, or the relentlessly positive friend who appears to have their sh*t together But let’s be honest, we don’t... Well, I do now, as I built winnny.com to help me medium.com/@markbowley...

I did a literal OMG while adding this one omgstats.com

Last year I wanted to start writing tiny, short stories in spare time Just for myself, not to share To practice more creativity So I made a small tool to help me do it medium.com/@markbowley...

I've added a bunch of new stats to omgstats.com

When the design feedback is too real... hndmark.com

When you have an emoji for a logo, why not make it an animated button? 😅 omgstats.com

Encouraging to see this app growth, from nothing but me posting about it and a watermark on the downloads hndmark.com

Quick addition to hndmark.com – a couple of new tools — Redact tool — opposite Curved Arrow

Absolute banger from @JamesClear's newsletter

Updated Bento Stats to allow mixed units – so you can effectively create a dashboard of stats for your product/startup/business bentostats.pages.dev

POV: Day 47 of explaining that bigger ≠ better hndmark.com

Still pleased with this app prototype — Visualise data hierarchy in a beautiful grid — Export or Embed bowley.link/bento

Real feedback we've all had... Visualised with hndmark.com

Had this cold email with the merge field left blank, which just screams 'spammy content'... 😂

You post a screenshot of your product... "Cool shot, but what am I looking at? Don't make me think" With hndmark.com you can – Draw an arrow to indicate a change – Circle something & label it – Highlight important text Now it's a STORY, not just a screenshot

Something is happening on hndmark.com

Woke up to a lovely review on my @Carrd Minimal Blog tool on Gumroad 🙏 markbowley.gumroad.com/l/minimal-c...

2 min job – made myself a stat code builder, which converts plain text to JSON, ready to paste into my code

Most of Hndmark.com's markup tools are free to use, but you get so much more in Pro

Thought from my next newsletter, going out later today Join here – markbowley.beehiiv.com

Feedback from a Hndmark.com Pro user www.linkedin.com/posts/markb...

This one is just plain crazy... From omgstats.com

Now I'm building omgstats.com, I get to post OMG gifs all the time now...

Well this is pretty cool – only launched end of Nov 🚀 hndmark.com

So this is something I launched yesterday – small fun project which I will expand 🚀 omgstats.com x.com/markbowley/...

Posted hndmark.com on Reddit, and got this feedback 🙌

Working on a small fun project in spare moments...

Many of my codefor.carrd.co snippets and tutorials would work on any site, not just @Carrrd Mostly add little extra stylings or functions

I can relate to this, by @maddiedreese x.com/maddiedrees...

What Hndmark.com is for → You post a screenshot of your product Cool shot, but what am I looking at? Don't make me think. – Draw an arrow with a note "We fixed the buttons" – Circle something and label it "We're shipping this tonight" Now it's a story, not just a screenshot

Sharing progress without commentary is just... data Hndmark.com lets you build narrative directly into a screenshot: → What changed → Why it matters → What's next The annotations ARE the story People don't need another clean WIP screenshot They need to know what they're looking at

New Pro features and tools on Hndmark.com

This is frequently my most read post on @medium lately There is clearly some need emerging, in this new world where barriers to creating a dropping fast – but the understanding of what's good vs bad is lagging behind...
