So I promised I would launch this thing by the end of Feb.

There were only 1/4 of the amount of data I was aiming for but I decided, F it and launched anyways (for 1/4 price)

#buildinpublic #startups #startup
I am working on a new data sales project: a database of structured annoying-to-obtain data in a niche.

Aiming to ship by the end of February.

If it works, it will be an easy to maintain side project, that will also work as an MVP for a similar larger project

#buildinginpublic
Main tasks for this week:

- Format and publish the article I started last week
- Write and publish at least one more article
- Fix blog font issues
- Connect Google Analytics with the blog
- Remove any images from CSS
- Fix img resizing for mobile

12.45am: Post breakdown of my day on twitter, because the world needs to know how wild my Friday nights are 🪩

12.50am: I am off to eat chocolate and read a book. Ciao

Startup gods have blessed me:

Found a site in my niche offering VERY underpriced ads.

I am talking about $2 a day for thousands of impressions to potential niche customers.

Am I the only one that constantly overestimates how much I can do in a day?

If my daily to-do list is 50% done, that’s a good day

The more I learn about business growth, the more I understand marketing doesn’t ‘just work’.

It’s crickets every time you start building a new traffic channel and you have to put in soooo much consistent grind for it to take off and 'work'

Perks of my industry:

I am having my morning coffee in a cafe, but people are staring and smirking at me.

10 min later I realise: a huge YT thumbnail of a woman in bondage has been displayed all over my Canva screen all this time.

The struggle is real! As an SEO newbie, I found out that my website speed was holding me back from optimal Google SEO.

Tackling the Wild West of front-end optimization and switching from slow-loading embedded twitter testimonials to screenshots

The 10 worst pick up lines, according to ChatGPT
(fruits of me procrastinating):

1. "Do you believe in love at first sight, or should I walk by again?"

2. "If you were a vegetable you’d be a cutecumber."

#buildinginpublic #buildinpublic #startup #startups #ChatGPT
OK, this is a BRILLIANT use of ChatGPT:

I asked "What are the logical steps of this function: <insert some function (see mine below)>"

This is what I got. Amazing!

In January the main focus is to set up decent SEO for the website (blog + good articles)

Today:

- Added a WordPress blog to my existing HTML website

8 months after I first decided to go full time on my business, I am finally free of employment.

Reflections on this so far⬇️

A/B testing ChatGPT copy vs my own this week.

I asked to provide alternative descriptions of my audio product.

First impression: it's promising.

But I'll let the data talk.
