Store Design preorders end Friday
As mentioned, we went dark for the past couple of weeks. Here is why: in March of 2020, I bought an infinitely rebookable flight to Japan, because the Bad Times™ were supposed to last six weeks and stuff. Three rebookings later, I teleported out of the hemisphere at maybe the worst time for my business in the history of the universe.
Somehow, nothing collapsed in my absence. (Good job, team, and thanks.) In the meantime, I had a magical experience, one I’ll not soon forget. And now it’s time to get back to work.
Most importantly, Store Design preorders end in 4 days. At that point, the price will go up, and you won’t be able to get our bundle discounts anymore. We’ll also be providing periodic updates exclusively for those who got in early. If you’ve been waffling on joining us, you may wish to do so.
Store Design arrives at a time when ecommerce desperately needs new ideas. We’re honored, now & always, to have the support to make awesome books like this happen. Thanks for reading, and help spread the word!
Links
Got a few weeks of links for y’all:
- People still don’t trust stores, just in different ways. You may want to provide a clear return policy & delivery date. It’s 2023.
- As usual, “product” is a thing. We just call it design around here, because design implies the sort of expansive take that is necessary to operate correctly within tech writ large. Call it whatever you want.
- A lovely little site on single-column design. Sounds familiar…
- This article says design is governance, but really design is a form of leveraged power. Nobody wants to admit this, I guess?
- Sabbath mode.
- A very brief guide to interviews. Go longer.
- Someone finally gets it.
- Measurement.
