A few days ago, own.page reached #2 Product of the Day on Product Hunt.
As a solo founder competing against products backed by much larger teams, this wasn't something I expected - but it was something I was determined to achieve. There were moments during the launch when I thought it would be incredibly difficult.
I'm sure a lot of you have read this iconic article by Paul Graham (http://paulgraham.com/ds.html) so I was wondering... how much time do you founders/early-stage startup marketers/growth hackers really spend on things that don't scale (like writing content, building relationships, etc.)?
Have any startup founders here ever had a coach? If so, what's been the main value you have taken away from the experience? I ve been coaching founders for a few years now and am always curious/amazed at the takeaways that people leave a coaching relationship with. Often, it s not what they imagined!
