🤝 Can a small business get better talent than a big corporation? Hell yes! What if location limits your opportunities, but NOT your ambition?

💼 🗯 Every single positive comment counts!

😍 Every. Positive. Comment. Counts! When you’re a business owner, even with thousands of customers, every time I get a positive comment from a client, IT MAKES MY DAY.

✈️ 💼 How I met Nathan Barry and recorded a podcast with him…

Thursday, January 29, 2026 /boise/

Why not travel half way across the globe to meet your business idol? This is what I did and back in December of last year I had a privilege to be mentored live on a podcast by one of my favorite entrepreneurs - Nathan Barry - founder and CEO of Kit at their recording studio in Boise, Idaho.

💌 💼 ✅ How I calculated new prices for Nozbe that will be introduced in February

Wednesday, January 28, 2026 /prices/

In a few days we are going to celebrate 19 years of Nozbe and with this we’re going to be also adjusting our prices (last time was 2,5 years ago). It’s basically an inflation adjustment but as I was preparing the new price list I also took an opportunity to see how we can make the pricing even simpler. Plus, I also hired AI to help me out… which was… interesting. Here’s how I went about it all if you’re curious:

💼 ✔️ 🗯 Podcasts I listen to and recommend

Monday, January 26, 2026 /podcasts/

Did you know I spent 228 hours listening to podcasts in 2025? At 1.5x speed? A podcast creator (I co-host NoOffice.FM and Nadgryzieni.pl) is also a podcast consumer. Here are the podcasts I listened to the most and I recommend:

💼 🗯 Switching to monthly cadence for No Office podcasts

Wednesday, January 21, 2026 /monthly-podcast/

I love podcasting 🎧 and I’m an avid podcast listener and producer. Even though I’m busy developing my app Nozbe, I love sharing tips and tricks for our clients on the “No Office” podcast. This year, based on the amount of work we have on the app, I’ve decided to lower the frequency of the podcast to just once a month, but I want to make it count!

✅ 💼 ⭐️ How my immature decisions led me to celebrating 18 years of my productivity business?

Monday, February 3, 2025 /immature/

Nozbe - the productivity app that I founded back in February of 2007 is celebrating 18 years in business. To commemorate the occasion, we bid and won the cover of iMagazine (see below) as all the proceeds from this auction went to charity. So… my Nozbe app is now mature. However, as I’ve been preparing today for this Wednesday’s celebratory recording of the NoOffice FM Podcast, I’ve realized that I’ve been making some very immature decisions on my way to getting here:

💼 🤩 ✅ ⭐️ Mighty Fridays in Nozbe - for 8 years (2016) we’ve been working only 4 days a week!

Wednesday, January 15, 2025 /workshow/

Let me tell you how my small but global company Nozbe became a pioneer of the 4-day work week, thanks to Mighty Fridays! We introduced this concept in 2016 and it was so successful that two years later I was invited to talk about it on national Breakfast Television. Which followed many articles in local and national press about our company. What follows below is more-less my speech at a conference WORKsHOW 2025. Here goes:

🙁 💼 ⭐️ I’ve stopped posting on Twitter/X indefinitely

Thursday, November 14, 2024 /twitter/

After many months of thinking, deliberating and soul-searching, I’ve decided to finally stop posting on my @MSliwinski account on X (formerly Twitter). If you want to follow me, feel free to do so on Mastodon or LinkedIn. Alternatively sign up for my Newsletter, which I’m sending every 2 weeks. If you’re curious how and why it came to this decision, here goes:

✅ 💼 🎬 Set up Nozbe in 5 minutes or less! You can change your company’s habits so quickly!

Wednesday, August 7, 2024 /nozbe-5min/

My app Nozbe is kind-of in productivity space, but now as we serve SMART business owners we are more in habit-changing space. Especially as entrepreneurs realize their companies are becoming successful and need to get organized, they need Nozbe but they tell me they have no time to set it up. That’s why I recorded this short video explaining that you CAN set up yourself and 2 of your closest co-workers in 5 minutes or less, from start to finish:
