    Yeah - looking forward to reading your execution thread. Haha...yah...one of those "Do as I say, don't do as I do."-spots we psychologists encounter from time to time :D. I feel pretty guilty whenever I skip a habit repetition :D Did not know six sigma, but it looks pretty appealing. Data...

    Ah, get it. Hey there, colleague :). What is your app about then? And what do you work as now? I feel organizational psychologists have such a broad field of possible work places.

    Hvala! Yeah. I outsourced the logo on fiverr and noticed right away that it was not 100% round :D. But that was one of those things that I had to ignore to finally get launched.

    I have a small user base that uses the app very diligently and have a few downloads every day. The first yearly subscriptions were sold and now I'm playing with different marketing tactics (mostly outsourcing via fiverr). No big bucks made, yet. But I have solid prove of concept. 20% of the...

    Thank you :). There is definitely still a long way to go marketing wise - the app biz got pretty crowded over the last few years. But the market is still growing 20-30% per year and I will just focus on my niche and try to own my tiny little realm :)

    Thanks :). I'm already monetizing with a freemium model: You can built 2 habits for free. If you want more, you can get a subscription at 5$ monthly or 25$ yearly.

    Hello from Germany

    INTRO 
    Oh cool. Yeah. Thats a nice little coincidence :). Don't get fooled. It was 15 months of pure desert with a lot of doubt, panic, anxiety, coffee and code. Condensed in a post, it appears like it happened in a weekend or so...definitely not :D. Looking forward to our call.
