A room full of people doing the same difficult thing as you.

Verano

Somewhere between a group chat and a conference — without the noise of the first or the once-a-year problem of the second.

This month’s calls, and a change to the shelf

Open session is on the 14th, deep dive on the 28th — the topic is pricing, chosen by vote. Both are recorded and go up within a day. The shelf has been reorganised by what a thing is *for* rather than by who posted it. If you cannot find something you uploaded, it is still there; say so in Ask the room and it will be relinked.

Why people join Verano

Ask anything, without performing

The rooms are private and members-only. Nothing posted here is indexed, quoted or screenshotted, which is why people say what they actually think.

People one step ahead of you

Not experts on a stage. Members who solved last month what you are solving this month, and remember exactly what it cost them.

Two calls a month

One open session where anyone can bring a problem, and one deep dive on a single topic chosen by the members.

The shelf

Templates, teardowns, spreadsheets and recordings that members have built and shared. It grows every week and none of it is behind a form.

Introductions that go somewhere

A directory people actually keep up to date, and a norm of replying to a cold message from another member.

No algorithm

Chronological, unranked, and nobody is optimising for your attention. You read what is there and then you close the tab.
