What Hacker News says?
I'm sure there are specifics for Gumroad, but there are lots of insights available via other remote companies: https://blog.doist.com/asynchronous-communication/ https://zapier.com/blog/how-to-work-asynchronously/ Basically instead of waiting for a meeting to communicate, just write it down and send it out, via Slack or whatever. People can consume it on their own time.

HN discussionYou should try Twist ( https://twistapp.com/ ). I switched to Twist with my team and haven't looked back at Slack. Twist organizes discussions around tasks.
