[Samuel C Dike 🇺🇲 @samuelcdike]

As a lectiophile, re-reading these classics ahead of the launch of our flagship product at @usegroom this month. Which have you had, and how did it help position you for growth on your startup, projects or as an individual?

This is a powerhouse collection for anyone looking to master both their mindset, and their market. I wrote a summary of each book and why you should consider a read as a startupper:

Adoption friction is real and kills. This is why we are building @usegroom. Groom tells you everything it thinks about your product and how users are interacting. It don’t just stop at metrics. We are building intelligence that betters UX on any software.

2026 Q2: Building and shipping new updates of our flagship software, Groom, at @usegroom HQ in Lagos. It has been days locked in, and off social media. Building quietly what should be the best AI SaaS in Africa.

Big news: we will be moving our headquarters to USA, H2 2026. 🎉
