@alphacolin What made you switch?

This is how @MikeMcDerment started @freshbooks:

"I hated making invoices in Word and wanted it to be easier."

"Everyone hates X and wants it to be easier."

☝️ look here for new product ideas.

(From my chat with @adamwathan)

@dmathisen36 Lol. Omg.

Another clip from http://devmarketing.xyz:

"A product person is a servant. Instead of thinking about themselves, they think about users." 🙏

Successful thinkers don't just contemplate ideas inside their heads; they flesh them out in the public sphere.

☝️ hat tip to @patio11 for pointing me to this gem: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1024825

"Product definition" as a marketing activity is 💯

"Too many folks have a narrow definition of what 'marketing' is. Marketing is product definition, awareness, lead gen, conversion." – @tqbf

@LukasThoms I was basing this on my experience as a snowboard retailer.

Margins on sporting goods are generally around 30%.

I don't like to bash creative work.

But GAWD, Apple.

First "Planet of the Apps," now this?

Margins matter!

tl;dr – a digital product could do 3x less in sales $ and still make more than a physical product.

People seem to be digging this interview I did with @LouisSlices:

@iamashley YES!!

@ajlkn How do you handle the delivery of the digital file? (After payment?)

@can How can we fight this sort of faux-rationalism?

How did you work through it yourself?

@jasonfried Loved the Distance, but this teaser sounds good too!

I'll be listening. 🙌

Crap.

@jasonfried Interesting!

I'm curious: why start another podcast?

RT @EHM_Podcast: Tired of making software no one wants? Time to change your approach before your start coding. Listen to @mijustin:

@justinbrooke I was involved with the project, but I'm not anymore.

Dear @telus:

I've been trying to get Pure Fibre hooked up since October. Multiple phone calls + online bookings.

Still no install date. 😫

@jlinowski @SamuelHulick True.

However: I ❤️ being a "set it and forget it" customer.

@SachaGreif @VulcanJS ☝️ btw – @SachaGreif is one of my favorite writers on the web.

I refer to this piece often:

Also: will there ever be a product for folks who don't use Stripe's Subscription API?

@agungsetiawanmu Yup, sending out an update today!

@wkinne0425 Yup! I still publish occasional interviews to @productpeopletv. Planning another season of @megamaker as soon as I re-launch @marketingdevs

<Behind the scenes>

Making new videos for @tiny_wins 💁😂

Lazy Sunday?

I just published a bunch of new videos on marketing for SaaS and software products:

https://www.youtube.com/justinjackson?sub_confirmation=1

@joshmanders That would be awesome!

RT @joshmanders: Hey @mijustin I saw your transcription video, I simplified some steps for ya. https://anifty.co/srt-convert.html

@cvrnt It will transcribe it fine - it will just be tricky remembering who is speaking.

@rezzz Usually 1 day.

RT @warkior: @mijustin I was inspired by your talk. Great stuff! It actually gave me an idea for a new app. :)

@warkior I dig it!

@halarewich Love that spot!

@chris_hawk There's a lot of good advice; it just takes a *long* time to implement + practice.

@jamesclear talks about it here:

@clayhebert Thanks Clay!

(If you can, give it a 👍 so other people find it)

I've been looking for an automatic way to transcribe podcasts / videos forever. Just figured it out!

"How do you build an app that people actually want?"

RT @ianlandsman: This is the universe just trolling us at this point https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/156829591267328000

Just posted the slides from my #laracon talk:

https://megamaker.co/laravel-2017-talk/

@franciscof_1990 @marckohlbrugge I can see how that might work with Android apps.

For SaaS, and bigger web apps, building anticipation (and tracking demand) is important.

I just backed @sensibleworld's new @kickstarter project because he's awesome: http://kck.st/2tJBkUh

@elliottdavidson Thanks! Just fixed it. 👍

@dmfj Lol. I heard you from stage! You're definitely unique amongst your peers!
