I just finished Zero to Sold by @arvidkahl - here's what I got out of it for me personally, to apply on my efforts to build https://t.co/wRlOaEKfD2 π
π Product to Business
I'm somewhere between Survival and Stability stage. I should (and do) focus on building a business around the product. Pumping out features alone will not make T1 sustainable. There is much more around it and I feel the pain of not focusing on it earlier.
π 2020 went well
I think I did an OK job last year to build, validate and grow the project. It was validated when the first customer entered their credit card details, and it continued from there.
From 42β¬ payout, to >8000β¬ in 9 months.
π Process Docs
Documenting Standard Operating Procedures so my current and future team and helpers can onboard quickly and support me. It uncovers automation possibilities and it clears up my head by not having all of this manual stuff in there.
Getting on this soon πͺ
π Value Proposition
I have to do a better job of defining and communicating it. It's hard though. >10k users are on T1 and I'm still struggling with clearly defining why... which makes me feel really stupid.
