I like the product and I know they're a YC company, but that was as close to a flat-out sales pitch as I've seen posted here in a awhile. Not the end of the world, but what was that REALLY saying other than RescueTime has a good ROI if you pay for it? And "recession-proof"? Come on now...
- bfioca 18y agoYeah I'll cop to that - it is a bit sales-pitchy. We were just really surprised by those figures, though, and I wanted to share them in a useful way. Can you blame me? :)
- rewind 18y agoI have no problem with the post itself; it's in your blog and it's totally relevant to your company. I just don't think it added much value in this forum without giving it context. If the subject was "How to use real-world data to sell your startup's products", the context would be totally appropriate because readers would have a differnet mindset going in. Spin, baby, spin ;-)
