RT @cartab: @mijustin hey man! Check out my latest post where I cover your interview with @rrhoover - titled Launching is a Myth http://t.c…

I should'a known you were only in it for yourself... http://buff.ly/1x3xHOL

@kaufman_jack yeah man, @natekontny has a ton of wisdom. It’s a great episode.

RT @productpeopletv: New episode tomorrow morning with one of my favorite people on the internet: @natekontny!

@earthlingworks also odd when you contrast it with Campaign Monitor's announcement (they raised $350M).

@CorbettBarr @brennandunn HELL YES.

I fly into SFO around noon on July 30th. Should we go for dinner + drinks that night?

@MathasaurusRex dammit, you’re right!

@NakedPigVernon stopped into for your soft opening - the place looks incredible!

#vernonbc

@_architexture_ this is good thinking.

@deeabson ooh, I've been craving those.

@NightShade003 this sounds good. Do they deliver? ;)

@allygreer I like your thinking.

Coffee or candy?

@letsworkshop I like blossom ;)

@citadelgrad nice @getdrip integration BTW. ;)

@misterparker I recommended you on @producthunt. You can now join the discussion. :) http://www.producthunt.com

@CalebWojcik just “waking up” is my favourite productivity tip.

@FreelanceNathan @tnorthcutt yes - raw report data generally. Biz customers like to bring that stuff into Excel and create their own reports

@thomasfuchs what about all the folks running 1200-14.4k bps?

@rjs how do you figure that out? Especially if your product does multiple "jobs"?

RT @roguepolymath: Can't win? Change the game. by @mijustin http://bit.ly/1nuFvJB

@roguepolymath ooh. I like that tittle way better. ;)

Thanks for sharing!

@tnorthcutt 6 years of serving enterprise customers (and talking to dozens of founders).

Offering a CSV download also high on the list.

Pssst. Designers here’s a secret:

For many business users, print.css will be the most important thing you'll build.

You've heard of dogfooding - what about "catfooding"? http://buff.ly/1r0wjuw Neat idea by @beryllium9

@corey_gwin awwww yeaaah.

Hey, is that @Jason in the background? Are you sharing the apple sauce with him?

@sgeve haha. Sweet!

… except now I’m going to try to go to bed.

Wowser. Talk about summer reading: you can get all of my friend @pjrvs' books for $24 right now - http://buff.ly/1o3A57o

@Beryllium9 eating and scheming. Hell yeah.

@mike_hasarms lol

Who else is up late eating greek yogurt, bananas, and honey out of a tin cup?

@joestump seriously! He’s already talking like a 30-something.

@okcolab love @danshipper’s story.

RT @stuffmartysaid: "When I'm older I'm just going to grab an axe, go into the woods, and live there for awhile."

@BizRepublic yup! Here: http://soundcloud.com/businessrepublic/e37-leaving-corporate-with-greg-hickman

Loved that line.

(@raspberrysarah liked it, so it must be good)

@markosavic ooh. I like that question too.

@bealers Yes!

What was the last landing page that sold you something?

@avclark lol

@raganwald @lo_fye so true!

Marketing:

Your landing page should feature the customer's biggest problem. You have 5 seconds to show that you understand their #1 issue.

@cezarfloroiu I think it actually applies to most cases. ;)

Most buyers don't want specs.

@lifeonautosite thanks for sharing it! Go create!

@nickcdavis thanks! Which post did you just read?

Marketing:

1. Define the real problem
2. Make your message heard
3. Deliver on your promise

Technically more efficient doesn't mean the user will benefit:

Seller: "This is a faster car"

Buyer: "But my commute is just 2 minutes."

After I took this picture, this band set the roof on fire.

Literally.

RT @StuartMoncrieff: Why you're not making sales (by @mijustin). Hint: you're chasing your own needs, rather than your customer's needs. ht…

@michaelbridge you're in Salmon Arm?!?

@jason whoa - no wonder you're so happy with that investment.

@justinabrahms nice! I definitely need to go for Podnah's next time I'm in #PDX.

@avclark awww yeah.

Name 3 of the songs you would have put on that tape.

@seanwes how long will you be there?

@robwalling sweet!

RT @marcelosomers: @mijustin Don’t forget training budgets. My company gives me $2k to spend as I wish.

Product people take note: many, many products are purchased this way.

@kai3x5 yes!

Hot damn! My buddy @studiofellow just updated Bootstrapping Design (one of my favorite books). New videos look great! http://buff.ly/1qM0Lsj

Oh man, I wish I'd written this.

@sachagreif's brilliant piece on the pricing potential for different product types http://buff.ly/1qj0kKi

.@ttimsmith's new podcast, For the Record, is exceptional.

@robwalling I think you'd dig my latest @productpeopletv with @rrhoover too:

http://productpeople.tv/2014/07/17/ep60-ryan-hoover/

@amyhoy @Shpigford @robwalling I'll ditto that.

I have a small private office as well. $200/month = best investment.

@iChris ummm... Farmers who blog.

Duh.

@avclark

(I haven't send duh in years. That was fun.)

@pjrvs just listening to the episode on money right now!

@pjrvs yeeeaaaah! Is the first episode out yet?

.@iwearyourshirt's book is one of my favorite reads of the year. Finished it in 2 nights!

RT @SachaGreif: New post on @medium: The Product Spectrum https://medium.com/my-thoughts-7/the-product-spectrum-bb2084b6f5b3

@SachaGreif LOVE the storytelling with the graph paper - especially starting with the blank sheet.

@SachaGreif you are freakin’ brilliant. What a great piece. DAMN!

@rrhoover Nope! I’ve been going back and releasing those video interviews one by one in the past 5 weeks. Yours was next!

Just released: a new podcast with @rrhoover - I spoke to him 5 months ago *before* @producthunt went crazy ;)

http://productpeople.tv/2014/07/17/ep60-ryan-hoover/

@spencerfry thinking about how my desire to "always appear right" or "appear like I know best" clouds my vision of what users actually need.

Are you listening to my podcast?

@productpeopletv: http://buff.ly/1oL1hUI

New episode coming today!

Ego gets in the way of making good product decisions.

Best way to avoid it: think about who you’re serving. Find out what they really need.

@marcoarment how do those recommendations work? Does it look for known podcast URLs?

@kyleclynch lol. Awesome.

@chrisbowler is solid. He comes and hangs out with me in #vernonbc everyone once in awhile!

@kyleclynch hey Kyle, thanks for following. ;)

How’d you find me?

@chrisbowler thanks Chris!

@adii have you listened to @danmartell’s story here?

http://productpeople.tv/2013/06/12/ep30-dan-martells-story-from-rehab-to-san-francisco/

Really inspiring.

@chase_reeves thank goodness you didn’t add @productpeopletv to that list, or I might have stayed retired. ;)

@polimorfico thanks! What did you like about it?

@MSchechter lol. Thanks man. Are we seriously going to miss each other in SF?

When's your next trip to Canada man?
