@tonycarreon exactly!

Promote your own stuff. It’s not a sin.

@gabeshep hahahaha. http://uifaces.com strikes again.

@avclark you can be a good marketer and get people in the door.

But products with "holding power" are unique.

@avclark this keeps coming up in my consulting projects (and if I'm honest, in some of my own as well).

@jaybroni 👍

@ideasasylum @sugru haven’t!

So cool: yesterday hundreds of people helped me edit the Maker Manifesto. You can still contribute!

@carlhancock used dynamic population via URL today. Huge 👍. 🎉

@kylefox I think so much of my delight was in the fact that this was a huge overall upgrade for us.

I actually like the Siri remote too.

@kylefox kids and I love the games. Alto’s + Crossy Road + Sketch TV + Beat Sports + Cannabalt.

Good CBC, Netflix apps too. 👌

@kylefox interesting.

We just upgraded from a 39” Standard Def tube TV + 1st gen Apple TV.

LOVE the new Apple TV.

@chris_vasey thanks Chris!

@DesignSellout whoa. How does Cricut work?

@DesignSellout @ux_pert awwwww yeaaaaahhh

@SachaGreif @tkenny love it!👍

@liatmord @twitter +1

@leif 👌🏼

@Lajeunesse88 lol

So much of life is circumstance.

@Dleesta yes! That’s a good one too.

Getting someone to buy your thing is not “ultimate product validation.”

(That’s just good marketing)

Aim for usage + satisfaction.

@chase_reeves but seriously, Seth Godin might want to be your dad.

@pixelatedbow AWWW yeaaah! 👊 Let’s do this!

@delk 😆

@rachelandrew @grabaperch 👍

SaaS does not necessarily = Recurring revenue.

There are a lot of use cases where paying monthly isn't a good fit for the customer.

@bakkahfei awwww yeaaaah! 👍

@LeylandJacob http://placeit.net comes to mind.

When they first launched they only offered monthly plans. Now they have “single pay.”

.@Dleesta yes, exactly!

The question needs to be:

“Does the use case match the revenue model?”

Sometimes business owners force a subscription revenue model when the product is really "occasional" or "one time" use.

Just because recurring revenue is more attractive to you (the business owner) doesn't mean it will work for the customer.

@jaethan WAT

@hector5anchez 👍

@LawDonnie Minecraft has a very long shelf life. It’s incredible.
