First MRR: An Important Milestone ⛰ in the life of a solo bootstrapped founder
I am beyond thrilled to announce that Doks.ai has officially landed it's FIRST paying customer!🎉
It's hard to put into words just how ecstatic I am about this achievement.
What started as a 6-day build-in public challenge back in June 2023, inspired by other makers on Twitter,
From failing massively to build the product in 6 days to finally launch it after 21 days
Has grown into something...

🤯 Google has sold Google Domains to Squarespace?
If you're like me, you may wonder why Google would divest itself of such a valuable asset.
After all, Google Domains seemed like a natural fit for the Google ecosystem,
Providing a one-stop shop for website creation, domain registration, and other web-related services.
So why did Google sell Google Domains to Squarespace?
Was it a strategic move to focus on core products and services, or...

Do you think that your original ideas won't stand a chance against established players?
Are you hesitant to start a business in a highly competitive market?
Many people believe that starting a business in a competitive market is a bad idea. However, this is not necessarily true. In fact, being in a competitive market can actually provide pre-launch validation and allow you to learn from and improve upon what's already out there.
Point of difference can mean more than just...

Founders & makers, How did you find your first 100 early adopters?
As I'm building Grabee.com one thing I have learned is that I think the most important thing is to not just look for early adopters but to make them.
I'm reaching out to people who might be interested in it not just contacting random strangers and hoping they'll buy from you.
So I'm creating content that speaks directly to my target audience and then sharing that content with those people...

What advice would you give someone who is starting their own company?
I wish someone had told me how much time it would take. I was so naive when I started my company, thinking that it would be easy to get off the ground and make a name for myself.
What I didn't realize until later is that there's so much work involved in building a business and so many things that can go wrong.
I'm grateful for my experience now, but if I could go back and tell myself...

I think the idea for Grabee https://grabee.com/ came from a desire to make it easier for product teams to get feedback from their users and prioritize that feedback.
I'm a huge fan of feedback management. I've used several tools over the years, and I've never been completely satisfied with any of them. The problem is that they're either too simplistic, so they don't give me enough information...
How did you come up with the idea for your product or service?

Should you offer a free trial OR a free plan?
As I'm bootstrapping grabee.com I'm wondering if should I go with a free trial period or if should I include a free plan.
I think both scenarios allow you to cater to even more different types of customers and give them a better chance at finding what works best for them!
But what's the best in your opinion and what worked best for your product?

How do you keep yourself motivated as a solo indie founder?
I know it can get frustrating when things aren't going as well as you'd like them to.
I've been there, and it's easy to get discouraged when you feel like you're flying solo.
As a solo indie founder, it's important to find ways to stay motivated!
For me, it's important to remember why I started in the first place.
What's your way of staying motivated as a solo indie founder/maker?

This is such a great point, and I think it's so important to remember that success is not a destination, but rather an event.
I love how you used ping pong as an analogy for this, I agree that when you're playing ping pong, your goal isn't to win the game (which is why most people lose). It's just important to set a goal for yourself and then work toward it. That's what makes you successful!
How would you define success?

My advice would be to make sure that you're both on the same page regarding what you want to accomplish with your newsletter, who your target audience is, and how often you plan to send it.
If you don't have those things figured out before you start, it can be really easy for one person to end up feeling like they're doing all of the work while their partner isn't pulling their weight.
Good...
Give me some tips as I am starting a newsletter with a partner.😊
