    🔥 One Product that I'm absolutely blown away by and loving in 2026 (used it since last year) is Descript. It has completely changed the game of video editing. By giving you access to edit the video by editing the script, it reduces video editing time by more than half, and also allows you to easily create manual shorts. True innovation is not making a better horse-cart, it's making something that is not a horse-cart and yet helps you travel - faster and better ! As a product leader, I am picky about the products I use for my business, and yes I respect UX & product designers so I'm picky about the UX too 😅 But Descript is one that really blows my mind. Cheers to the founders! 👉 What is one tool or product that you're loving in 2026? #productcoach #coachpri #productwithpri #productleadership

  • We're going live with Zapier today to show the workflows we actually use. The ones that multiply content without multiplying headaches.

    I’m excited to share that the workflows we’ve built for our Marketing and Go-To-Market team are being featured in a webinar with Zapier. What started as a practical “solve this problem” project turned into a real growth moment for me in how I think about content engineering and automation. Working on the content for this pushed me to level up in a couple of areas. I learned a lot more about how our own product at Descript performs, and I dove deep into Zapier’s automation and AI workflows as I built the systems we’ll be walking through. I hope you will join us on Thursday, January 15 around 1 PM ET for... The Content Multiplier: Building Smart Repurposing Workflows It isn’t just about showing examples, it’s about how you can take a single source of content and systematically turn it into multiple useful assets with less manual work. We’ll cover how automated post-event engines take recordings and transform them into blog posts, social clips, follow-ups, and other materials without painful transcription or editing. 👉 https://lnkd.in/gCQTNx5N If you’re curious about automation, AI, and practical ways to rethink your content process, I hope to see you there!
