A friend from work who gives private swimming lessons at her house was asking my advice for a site/service just like this one. I've forwarded the link to her and I'll post any feedback she gives. I don't have a need for it but it looks nice and professional. Way too nice for an MVP. :-)

Thanks for the compliment on the website. I'm just a bit worried she might get lost inside the product - could you pass my email to her eddy [at] zenbookings.com in case she needs help/explaining.

I've worked very closely with our beta customers so far because my goal is to make sure they have a good experience so they're able to give us suggestions on how to make things easier rather than giving up.

Screen size must be 1920 wide? It's a known issue, we've had a hell of a time trying to get our CSS to be responsive to all the different screen sizes out there.

In any case, thanks for taking the time to check it out. Much appreciated

Hey HN - we just launched our rough MVP yesterday. Looking for some honest feedback on our website, our product and the overall vibe/pitch.

My motivation for building a relatively lowtech CRM/CMS'y startup was that I couldn't risk it all cos I have a young family. It's my first startup so I had to build a bootstrapped B2B product in the style of 37signals that is a better solution for a well known problem in a crowded market.

Congrats on launching Eddy, been watching you develop this great platform over the past few months and have to say it looks fantastic. Perfect for teachers, instructors etc.

Go team!

That looks very nice Eddy! You guys have come a long way. I can see anyone who runs classes using it and loving it.
