I’m Justin. I help creators do 10x things and turn their ideas into flagship digital products! AMA 👇

Hey Product Hunt! I’m a Senior Writer at Gumroad, host of the Gumroad Podcast, and Instructor of the 10x Creator Course. Today I’m a student of the creator economy, but it didn’t start that way. I was in the U.S. Navy for 11 years, and I served as a certified nuclear engineer aboard a fast-attack submarine. I later served as Director of Communication and speechwriter to senior U.S. officials, including SecDef Jim Mattis, SecDef Leon Panetta, and General (Ret.) David Petraeus. After that, I transitioned into the tech world and spent four years as an Evangelist at Palantir. In 2018, I co-founded a tech company focused on consumer content management (we didn’t make it, but I’m happy to talk about lessons learned!) Since then, I’ve gone full-time as an independent creator. I helped Jack Butcher structure “Build Once, Sell Twice” (a smashing success because of his ability to communicate and promote), and I helped Eric Jorgenson build and launch “Building a Mountain of Levers,” which is picking up steam and scaling! I’d love to answer questions on any of the experiences above and what I learned from teaching my first course. I'll be in and out answering questions all day, so fire away! 🚀 Lastly, my latest project is the “Creator Manifesto” poster collaborating with Ash Lamb and Janis Ozolins.
