    SaaS Startup Thread, 2nd Time Entrepeneur

    EXECUTION SAAS / APPS 
    I don't know how to explain to people who can't hear what I'm saying. 10 pages is nothing. 2 months is nothing. How big is your business? How much did you make today? I'm already in the top 5% of global income. It's more than enough for me to be happy where I'm at. (Edit, make that top .5%...

    Morning Thoughts on Huge and Ambitious Projects I recognize that I have hit the "Intermediate" part of this project. The easy excitement of the beginning has worn off. I know that between "Beginner" and "Advanced" there is a long 'desert of the soul.' I anticipated it. I will pass through it...

    Hey readers, I missed a day of posting. Just passed out at the end of the day. Sorry - I've been working myself to the bone. Probably too hard. If it makes it any better, my last thought before passing out was "shit, I forgot to post on the Fastlane Forum." I've been getting up early for...

    Monday night update: Another great day. I was SO sleepy in the afternoon from excitement + lack of sleep recently. So I took a nap, lol. It was kind of an accident, I just passed out. Anyway, still got a LOT done today after the Interview this morning, and got even more Interviews scheduled...

    Early morning SaaS update for Monday: It's a day off from going to Tutoring Office. I could have slept in till Noon. But I was up with the sun and a big pot of coffee (and my cat to keep me company on my desk). Why? Because I had another Customer Development Interview just a few moments ago...

    I thought about saying something snappy, but I changed my mind, because the question is interesting to me. First, here's my (blunt) advice for you: - When you jump into a conversation, wait till you know what people are talking about. Doing otherwise SUBTRACTS value, instead of adding. - Reread...

    Friday Night Update: Had the day off today, slept in, got a decent tutoring sale. The Tutoring Leads are actually pouring in right now. I've been tweaking my Local Adwords account on the side. And, my results have measurably improved. The way I see it, all that Tutoring Income is fuel for the...

    Actually I lied. Didn't feel like sleeping. Too excited by the feeling of progress. Feels like my dreams are getting closer. For the first time in several months, I hear myself chanting "Closer... closer..." in my head. Went back to the internet and added more Prospects to QuickMail... For a...

    Hey man. Sounds like Entrepreneurship may be for you. For reference (everybody is Winston Churchill on the internet...) I'm 30, been self-employed / business owner for nearly 7 years.

    Great advice, thanks. Working on my SaaS, and at some point (once I have paying customers), I plan to hire a front-end designer to make the web app look pretty. At that point, I may very well be following your exact advice, since I'd prefer not to have the overhead of a full-time designer...
