When not writing code or working on growing my business I very much like to chill out and go for a nice "organised bicycle ride" with my friends. This evening was enjoyed doing exactly that #buildinpublic #entrepreneurlife

Saw this and could not agree more. Even if sometimes it is just an up hill battle! (bitfitter.app for instance!) #softwaredevelopment #buildinpublic

Submitted v1.1.0 of Run Calc for app review. Loving this rapid dev cycle; build small features and ship frequently! Seems to be working as users are updating both apps soon as I release updates. And making money 👍#iOS #buildinpublic #SoftwareDeveloper

Not posted an update on the iOS app lately, but they are going from strength to strength. New version of #running Pace Calc about to release. And a new #cycling app in dev! Best of all, have coloured in more of my little map 🥰 edstivala.co.uk/customers #buildinpublic

First customer in Isreal for Gross Margin Calc! Getting back into #iOS apps was a smart move… continuing to waste time on fitness platform is now detracting from the pace that I can ship new features for the mobile apps. Need to wake up! #buildinpublic

I think I have figured out where my marketing for bitfitter.app has gone wrong... I don't say 'paradigm shift' enough, describe the 'gorgeous buttons and colours' or tell you its 'transformational use of AI'. What a dunce! #buildinpublic

I am proud, delighted and EXCITED to be launching my newest product. Right here. For YOU.
YOU NEED THIS to be a success. More than an AI wrapper or internal search engine!
I'm selling YOU a course on how to sell courses that teach how to sell courses. See? Winner👍#buildinpublic

We all start somewhere! My thought today; why does anyone else need to know? Such a fragile generation starting out in business that they need constant external validation? If true then God help them - they have some proper lessons to learn!! #buildinpublic

Does anyone else ever feel like the only reason they don't pivot is pride and ego?

Been thinking of what to do with BitFitter.app - no material traction BUT bloody good app if you are into fitness improvement. I will ‘build-for-me’ 👌as it’s the better than anything else and I have some big races coming up #buildinpublic

Sometimes you pull every marketing leaver and nada! You know adding new features won’t help… because nobody is looking. So you revert to plan B 👇🏼 #buildinpublic #indiedeveloper #startuplife

‘When being chased by a Lion, remember you only have to out run the person behind you.’ Business tip for free, so now do I launch a ‘make a fortune in business’ course? #buildinpublic #SME #businesstips #indiedeveloper

I’m wondering if my Unicorn is actually a donkey with a nasty tumour on its head…🤔 BitFitter takes lots of time and has FA traction. Gross Margin, low maintenance and easy distribution, sales everyday. Time to pivot…🤔🙄 #buildinpublic

So day 1 of "marketing over building" has led to two insights. 1st shortened my free trial & put price up. 2nd stop trying to emulate my competitors. I don't like or believe in what they offer, so why the hell emulate it 🤦‍♀️#buildinpublic #indiedeveloper

No more "building" bitfitter! Just pushed v2 (BIG update). Decided that easy / fun is v2.1 Hard thing is ramp up the paying customers! No more easy stuff till progress on hard stuff. Tonight is about rebuilding the marketing site ☹️#buildinpublic #indedeveloper

🥳 for those that are following my random journey... Gross Margin Calc went live on the App Store 6 days ago. This morning I see I have my first two paying customer... I know it's hardly a Unicorn... but have to start somewhere 😂  #buildinpublic

So that’s v1.1.0 of Pricing Calc sent to the App Store 👍 I’m going to have to stop messing about with #ios soon and get back to BitFitter #buildinpublic

I am actually working on BitFitter.app today… but attention of a gnat and got distracted 😉 made me smile! Hope everyone is having a fab weekend #indiedeveloper #buildinpublic

Being relatively new to Twitter and old - it has taken me quite a while to figure out why so many people ask damn stupid questions like “how long to make an MVP?” 🙄 But I got there in the end! And now I just block people asking stupid questions 😆 #buildinpublic

🥳To my amazement my MINIMAL #iOS app has been approved and now in the App Store. Super happy and excited to recreate the success I had last time I was in the #app #business No expectation of sales till v1.1 is done. But you never know #buildinpublic #indiedeveloper
