I want in.

Been reading some of your other threads, and they are gold, so I’m sure this will be excellent.

Do you think the following failure story would make a compelling intro?

Am I better off leaving stories out, and making the book purely informational?

Please let me know what you think.

Hi @BrooklynHustle ,

In my opinion, it will be a good idea to put failure story of yours in your book since it will kind of reassure your readers who are seeking for information about app business.

Your failure story will tell them that, even if you have failed in your past, you are successful today. It will tell your readers that is not an easy path, that there are obstacles in the process from idea to conceive an app. It will tell your readers what not to do which is as good as (better than?) what to do.

That fact that you failed before, and you are successful today will tell the readers that this path is difficult but not impossible. It will tell the readers that failing is not incorrect and in fact it can be part of the process.

As a futur reader myself, if I will fail while trying to develop my app business, I will think about you as a successful entrepreneur and your past failures stories, and it will give me courage to move forward.

Maybe more details about the failures might be good, what was the mistake, how did you deal with is, how much it cost you in time/money/energy, what did you learn, how is your adaptation afterward.

(sorry for my broken english I am french)

Been thinking about different ways to offer some value to the forum...

Wish your app ideas were instead real live apps with 12 million downloads?


Planning to write a short book about how I did exactly that.

I will take you step by step through the entire process of how I design, build, and market my apps

Without ever personally writing a line of code

And without getting ripped off.

Here's how to get the book for free:

Comment "I want in" below



Once it's ready, I'll post it here and tag anyone who expressed interest so you don't miss it

(no optin, no bs... just the file... pure value)


Let me know!




EDIT: BTW, guys.....

If there are specific issues that challenge or interest you when it comes to this topic, drop them in the other thread here:

Ask Me Anything About the App Business (100+ Apps, 10M+ Downloads, 1 Liquidity Event)


In addition to my notes & outline, I will be frequently referring back to the AMA thread to ensure that nothing essential is missed.
I want in, thanks for taking the time.

I've been thinking for a while of becoming an app developer, but the whole ASO (Android Search Optimization) thing is still fairly new to me, as SEO in fact.

Getting some insight from someone who has already successfully promoted their apps to such a huge number of users would definitely help out.

Thank you for doing this.

The mobile app industry moves fast. What worked last year or even last month won’t necessarily work this year. With that said, evergreen marketing strategies are more important than ever.
Curious to learn more

I want in please! :)
