A working product and paying customers in just 11 days!
In This Episode...
- An interview between Dan and Ben Mann showcasing some of the great results Ben has been achieving lately with his products Playgroup and Tinylog.
Key Take-Aways
Ben shares a number of excellent ideas and tips about:
- The benefit of launching your product to a single first customer and focusing on them to ensure the product is working well and they are getting value.
- Getting up early in the day to get a good block of uninterrupted time to make progress.
- Tackling more difficult things first and leaving smaller/easier jobs for moments when you're just not feeling it.
- Enjoying yourself and finding fun by doing things you've never done before.
