Hey, {{first_name | product-preneur}}!

You're finally doing it: building a business for yourself. The creative fire is burning in your belly, ideas are flowing, and you're ready to pioneer your entrepreneurial journey like the damn Oregon Trail.

Then it happens: you start writing down every brilliant idea, and suddenly you're drowning in possibilities. The excitement spirals into paralysis. Full dad crash out. Sound familiar, or just a flashback?

I've been there more times than I can count. That “fun” moment when you're juggling so many things at once that you can't tell what's actually working. Your brain fog rolls in, your body shuts down, and boom: burnout knocks at your door.

Don’t get SaaD. Get Rippling.

Our State of Software Sprawl report reveals the true cost of “Software as a Disservice” (SaaD)—and how much time, money, and sanity it’s draining from your teams.

The future of work is unified. Don’t get SaaD. Get Rippling.

🧠 UX Psychology: This isn't just strategy, it's science. Barry Schwartz’s research on the Paradox of Choice found that too many options (like 24 jam flavors) cause decision paralysis, leading to fewer purchases than when only six were presented. Focus on solving one thing and make purchasing easy.
