I hate Slack

Hi Reader,

I hate Slack

That’s what I told my boss one day.

I was working as a copywriter for a global content marketing team.

We created ebooks, PDFs, guides, and all that sort of thing.

With one mission.

Sell accounting software.

Hardly sexy stuff.

But creating content was fun.

Copywriting pays well, too.

Most of our team lived in different countries: America, Ireland, the UK, France, South Africa…

My boss told us to use Slack to keep in touch with each other.

The problem?

Slack is painful to use…

Instead of writing a blog post or ebook…

I’d frantically checked my Slack feed every few minutes like a junkie in need of a fix.

I couldn’t see who was working on what… or when.

Dozens of DMS a day.

Confusing channels.

Terrible search.

The whole thing was like Facebook, but for work.

But hey…

At least we could send each other instant emojis, cat videos, and GIFs, right?!

Around the same time, Chinese coder Ivan Zhao shipped a new weird tool.

Notion started as a webpage builder.

Then, they turned it into “the missing half of Slack.”

That was back in 2016.

Since then?

I quit my job.

I deleted my Slack account.

Permanently.

These days, Notion is a powerhouse.

It does everything Slack does… without the headaches.

I use Notion to run my six-figure content business.

So do 30 million other hardcore fans.

I’ve built a personal content management tool inside of Notion.

It helps me manage all my writing projects and anything I publish online.

(And no, I don’t have to check it every five minutes like Slack.)

It’s called the Writer’s Command Center, and it’s good for anybody writing online.

Write on,

Bryan

PS Notion is easy for any writer to use, I recorded a few videos that show you exactly what to do. That's inside the course.
