I'm no prude, and this probably won't bother many people, but "shit just got real" as a pricing level... not sure how that's gonna fly, when you're trying to get $2400/year from someone. I'm all for cheeky sales text, but this comes across as a step beyond professional. But, perhaps it'll attract more of the sort of paying customer you're looking to serve?


I was wondering more about the use case: are there really so many agencies that manage Trello content for other companies?

For Facebook-Pages, Twitter, google, Instagram,... i know it, but Trello?


It's not really aimed at people managing other peoples Trello boards. It's for anyone managing multiple boards, that could be an agency with boards for each of their clients. But those aren't their clients boards, they are part of the agencies workflow and may be private from their clients.


There are other needs for things like this - I'd tried to build a system to get a dashboard view of multiple issue trackers, because as a consultant, I'm often having to deal with multiple client environments, and switching between multiple issue trackers is a pain. It was harder than I expected, and focusing just on value in Trello is a neat idea.


I'm also a consultant, and brought all my clients into Trello, at least for user acquisition projects (what I consult on). Having everything in one system makes life significantly easier. However, I still have to dig into each board to see what's happening, and even then there's no status dashboard; just an activity feed.

I can see the problem this is trying to solve.


Thanks, ok this usecase i can comprehend.


You're right I think. I should think a little harder to find something which conveys the same feeling without the need for the language.


"It just got real" would have almost the same impact without the drawbacks.


Thanks good suggestion. It's currently a toss up between

1. It just got real

2. Too serious for a tag line

3. All grown up

I'm leaning towards number 2 at the moment. I'll deploy a new version tomorrow so will make the final decision then
