Hi, I'm an author and C-level in a top e-com growth company AMA

@gabriele_mazzola That would be awesome! Reach out to me on LinkedIn and let's set it up: https://www.linkedin.com/in/casp...

@anastasiia_stepko Hi Anastasiia, perhaps you can elaborate a bit?

@casper_brix Sorry for the confusion! I meant that with such a busy schedule you might have some specific daily routine. So I wonder what part of it you enjoy the most and what might really be more on the annoying side.

@anastasiia_stepko No, all good! Just wanted to make sure I could answer in the best way :) I like deep work in the morning hours so that is still something I do. However, I try to leave work in the evenings at the office - as I find it difficult to "shut off" when working till late at home. What works for you?

@elaineluyi Thank you! Well, I think there's a big difference between top and bottom growth. Meaning, that it is "easy" to scale revenue but you quickly realize that data is king and you need to ensure all steps lead towards profitability - without it, you have no capital for growth. And, thus, it becomes a downward negative spiral. Hope it is useful :)

@b2bsulaiman Thank you! It required strict time management. So, I think my everyday went something like - 05-09am writing on my book - 09-17 normal work - 17-19pm reading what I wrote and prepare for next day's writing session (in my normal work didn't go too late) I'm not going to lie. It required a lot of effort. That's also why I've created First Book ai to take all my learnings and help first-time authors finish and publish their book. ... Without having to sacrifice their social life! You can check it out here: https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

@casper_brix I can imagine it wasn't easy to balance a high-pressure position with writing a book. I'm sure many will benefit from your experience and expertise. I just clicked on the Notify me Button! Best of luck with your future endeavors!

@my3_murthy Yes, feel free to reach out! I would love to share my advice :) After spending +2 years on my first book, I think that the future of AI brings some great tools. Not to write your book 100% without you doing any of the work. But it can definitely help you save 99% of the time spent by guiding you step-by-step like we do with First Book ai. You can catch me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/casp...

@claudia_dennis Hi Claudia! In terms of how to use a book in their marketing or just general e-commerce? Feel free to reach out if you have any questions outside this thread: https://www.linkedin.com/in/casp...

@trumpeter And let's connect. Seems like you're doing some great work: https://www.linkedin.com/in/casp...

@ieraj Hi, thank you for your question! We work with publishers and I know that they are concerned and/or excited about the future. In my opinion, there will still be proofreaders and editors - since great books require a personal human touch (at least for now). That's also why we recommend getting one from our team to review and help publish if the book is to hit the #1 rank in stores. Read more of our coming launch here: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... However, I think that AI can provide a lot of helpful tools for the publishing industry - as it is still very manual. I hope this answers your question. If not, please let me know and I can elaborate :)

@kshitij11 Thank you for your question. Exciting about your launch, I've set up a notification now. Well, there are a lot of different ways to address the questions. Here are some. 1) Paid acq. channels like Google are getting more expensive. So, it's about owning the channels like with e-mail but it is a long transition. 2) Can you elaborate in regards to tools? Is it for paid? Organic? If you want to support our coming launch of First Book ai - and our goal to help make people authors - you can support us here: https://www.producthunt.com/prod...

@casper_brix Thank you for subscribing. I'm confident you'll find a lot of value from our tool when we're live :) For the tools, I'm interested in both paid and organic, but maybe I'd be more focused on Instagram. We're building in the same field, so it would help us understand user pains & likings better. Also, First Book ai looks really interesting, would follow your launch and try out on launch day!

@sidraref Definitely, let's connect! My LinkedIn is swamped before our launch next week so I can't connect with anymore people. Feel free to send me a connection: https://www.linkedin.com/in/casp... 🙏 Also, I would love your support for our launch if possible: https://www.producthunt.com/prod... Looking forward to talking further

@olinda_grayy Thank you! I guess my interests got the better of me. It wasn't the plan to write a book but I had a meeting with the Danish Mental Health Fund (Psykiatrifonden) and found some statistics showing a correlation between choice overload and mental health decline. So, I decided to use my experience within decision-making processes and consumer behavior to explore the topic. And, then, one thing led to another, and +2 years down the road my book was released 😂 Now, luckily it's possible to decrease that time to launch significantly. E.g. with the tools we've built in First Book ai and will launch next week: https://www.producthunt.com/prod...
