.@uberJJ helped me see with new eyes at Paystack, and remains my go-to person for growth marketing
So much of this work is invisible, and JJ has a gift for clear thinking / writing about it
This rare look at what a real product-led growth team looked like, is worth your time ❤️
2 months ago, we brought GoLemon’s operations to a close.
There’s a lot from those 30 months to write about, so I’m starting with an essay about org charts, the shape of our Growth team & how the work kept changing the team we thought we needed 👉🏾 uberjj.substack.com/p/the-or…

You can now pay for things in Africa directly from your AI agent.
Today we’re introducing Paystack Index, the easiest way to check out with Paystack merchants through Claude, ChatGPT, OpenClaw, and any AI agent.
At launch, you can:
→ Buy airtime: “Buy ₦500 MTN airtime for 080…”
→ Send money with @zapbypaystack: “Send ₦25k to…”
→ Buy food with @ChowdeckHQ: “Order jollof under ₦3k near me”
As more merchants join the Index, you’ll be able to do more, from booking rides and ordering groceries to paying utility bills, quickly and securely.
Paystack Index is now available in Nigeria, with more African markets coming soon.
An experimental product from Paystack and TSG Labs.

When my kids were little one or both of them did something unsafe that scared me. I told them that if anything ever happened to them, that I would be the saddest mommy in the world.
Today is 7 months since Eddie died and now I know that is not true.

An idea I've been finding very helpful: my draft essays are *places I go to think*. In particular, they create a context for me to think better thoughts. A coevolution goes on, between the quality of the ideas I can have, and the context provided by the essay
Something @wtgowers said once, in another context, comes to mind: the aspiration is to delay as long as possible the point at which the quality of the ideas saturates

I stopped bringing TikToks over here but I just love what this man is doing with these women’s makeovers. The look on their faces when he reveals them at the end. MY HEART EXPLODES EVERY TIME! The love he has for Black Women shows and I will watch/support every single video 🥹❤️
