Thanks for your interest. This form sends an email to a human (RBD, Craig).

Readers and YouTube viewers with feedback and general comments are welcome.

Submissions without a LinkedIn profile or other verifiable online human identity will be ignored.

New software tools: I receive multiple “offers” per week asking me to try new software for free. And if I like it, do a YouTube review or comparison.

My time is limited, and this is a business like yours. Trying your new software that does what existing software already does isn’t a good use of my time.

Services: I am working with fintech app developers on their marketing approach and new user discovery. I also provide testing and feedback.

This is an hourly consultation service, not a public endorsement or precursor to a YouTube video.

The number of retirement-planning, dividend-tracking, budgeting, and “everything apps” is growing exponentially, thanks to vibe-coding. I can help you gain traction with my services.

Guest posts and links: No. Please refrain from asking.
