I wish I'd had this before I started my last two projects.

Does this story sound familiar?
It's 1am, and you can't sleep. You've been struck with a brilliant idea and you can't get it out of your head. After fidgeting in bed for an hour, you go down to the basement and start coding.
By 7am you have a working prototype. You keep working on it evenings and weekends; creating new features, refining the design, and building out the billing system. Soon, the whole thing is ready for launch. You deploy it to production, and wait for your first customers to sign up.
But the customers don't come. What happened?
"Programming is black and white. Marketing is a world of gray."
Quit looking for that magical growth unicorn. You don't need to win the startup lottery. You can earn a good income from building and launching your own products.
The videos and book below will teach you everything you need to get started:
- How to build something people want
- The Lean Marketing Stack
- How to build momentum before you launch
- A launch plan and checklist
- How to get more leads after you launch
