I spent the last 10 years coding, the last 2 years working on other $0 side projects & met lots of critique and failure
What worked?
1. Making something useful that solves a problem I have. Then, making sure it’s a problem others search for frequently.
2. When my last project failed, I didn’t quit. I started working on the next one that weekend.
3. Built and tested fast. Built it in a month and tested with a simple MVP. Don’t spend time on new features until you know people will use the essential features that solve the problem.
4. Base new features on user feedback. I’ve encouraged feature requests from users as much as possible. That way, I know I’m building things people actually want.
I hit the $10k mark in 2 months
But it wasn’t easy
