Do you think content creators and software/SAAS businesses are becoming too reliant on third party platforms to build/host their business? I love no-code but it does concern me how much we rely on these platforms to stick around. #buildinpublic
Thank you! I come from a QA / sprint background so want to bring some of that experience into building digital products. Retros are important to learn and grow. #buildinpublic twitter.com/alanmoreldev/s…
I'm not building in public on Twitter to attract an audience. I have already built my target audience elsewhere. I’m documenting my experiences to learn for the future. Using my tweets as retro notes for future launches. #buildinpublic
Lessons I am learning from creating my first digital product:

→ Hire someone to do the tasks that create perfectionism.

→ Focus on your strengths, which in my case is creating the content.

→ As my friend @leifjerami reminds me, ship and improve.

Only another 32 pages to create. 3 weeks to launch. Creating the design and interactive checklist in @canva then exporting to PDF and looking at other formats including an app. #buildinpublic
My biggest lesson so far is not to cram a content-based product with too much information. Focus on one issue (rather than 2) my audience needs help with. #buildinpublic
Started to get bored of exploring and relaxing on week 2 of my vacation. Working on my digital product this morning in a coffee shop. #buildinpublic
I learned a valuable lesson about building a coaching business this week. Do not say 'yes' to everyone. I love to help people, but there are only so many hours in a day to work. This has resulted in me not working any hours on my digital product this week. #buildinpublic
Emailed a segment of my email list (people in the US who have opened all my emails this year but didn’t click a link) Most of them responded they want more video and/or podcasts. I guess I’ve focused too much on written content. Always ask your audience. #buildinpublic
Emailed a segment of my email list today (people in the US who have opened all my emails this year but didn’t click a link) Most of them responded they want more video and/or podcasts. I guess I’ve focused too much on written content. Always ask your audience. #buildinpublic
If you don’t feel excited for the work week ahead then maybe you’re focusing on the wrong work. Just maybe because we all have bad weeks. Worth questioning if it happens every Monday. #buildinpublic
Goooooood morning! Let’s get this week started. So much to do this week before I take my two week break from ALL work. Coaching calls, move to a new apartment, contracting work deadlines, product to create. Let’s go! 💪🏻#buildinpublic
Feeling under the weather but I bought essentials to keep me going. Three cans of chicken soup and a loaf of nutty wholemeal bread. We shall continue until I fall asleep or the nose unclogs. #buildinpublic
This is a great article by @semrush about if you should use title or sentence case for your title tags. I was interested to know which case got more clicks in search results. #buildinpublic semrush.com/blog/seo-split…
Busy 7 days coming up before I go on a two week holiday to Langkawi and Penang. No work whatsoever. For the first time in 8 years, I’m hoping the WiFi is lousy while away. 😅 #buildinpublic
Finally feel I’m on going in the right direction with my first digital product. I want to get it out and improve over time. I feel it’s going to be invaluable for remote job seekers. I will make use of all the spare time this weekend. 💪🏻 #buildinpublic
Slow start today. Nearly midday and not achieved anything. Have on my focus time: write LinkedIn newsletter and work on product. All I’ve done is skim through Twitter. 😅 Have lunch then get into it. #buildinpublic
Taking the day off tomorrow. Heading out to explore and eat. Will do my contract work in the evening. Important to take time off and enjoy life. The good news is I got my table of contents completed today. Now I can start creating and move forward. #buildinpublic
Fun task: going through my orphaned content. Basically, posts with no internal links pointing to them. Only 10 more posts to go. Internal linking is important when optimizing your content for the search engines. #buildinpublic
Didn’t get all the tasks I wanted to complete yesterday but that’s fine. I’m going to continue blocking out time for tasks but do it in the morning rather than in advance. Will see if that works better. #buildinpublic
