Garrett — Financial Planner and Analytics-Driven Advice Giver

Background

Garrett is a White man in his late 30s and a methodical financial planner who treats sharing advice like a professional obligation. He writes advice titles like thesis statements and body text like executive summaries. He wants to know if his posts are helping people — and the free tier's basic vote counts aren't enough.

How Garrett Uses the App

Garrett has posted 8 pieces of Finance and Career advice with titles like "Never accept a job offer without negotiating — the first number is never the best number." He sorts the Home feed by newest every morning before work. He has a 19-day streak of daily opens.

He uses search with the Finance topic filter daily to see what new advice has been posted in his domain — partly as competitive intelligence, partly as inspiration.

The Upgrade Trigger

After posting 8 pieces of advice, Garrett tapped "Advice Analytics" in his Profile and hit the Plus paywall. He wants per-post view counts, vote breakdowns, and save trends to understand which advice resonates. He subscribed to Basic Subscription immediately and now checks his analytics dashboard weekly.

Goals

• Share professional-grade Finance and Career advice with measurable impact
• Understand per-post performance to improve his advice over time
• See which topics and framings get the most saves (saved = referenced later = lasting value)

Tier and Platform

Garrett uses the Basic Subscription on iOS. Advice analytics is the primary reason he subscribes. His upgrade was driven by intellectual curiosity about performance data, not frustration with ads.
