Replying to @FelixThea
@FelixThea @brennandunn I've slllllowly been getting better at:
- automating some of my marketing
- hiring other folks to help me (@Tim_Aton, @pixelbud)

I struggled a lot with mental health in 2017 which has forced me to slow down and work less.

@I_am_yunik I agree! Building an email list, improving SEO, answering questions on forums, etc... are all a part of this. 👍

RT @mijustin: Your 30,000 word book should be 10,000.

Your 60 minute speech should be 30.

Your 166 lines of code could be reduced to 25.

@kevindfontenot @ScottMagdalein This makes sense, because marketing strategy generally follows the product.

When the product changes/improves the marketing shifts too. 👍

@JohnRMeese It's been interesting to see the reactions on different platforms.

I have ~14K Twitter followers, so occasionally I'll get tons of views on Periscope (really depends on time of day)

I have ~2k YouTube subscribers, so they get notified when I stream live (I think)

@rskopecek Yeah! I'm aware of that.

When you say "affiliate" does that mean folks can pay and subscribe to my feeds?

@PaulLomax It's cliché but true!

A good reminder that any industry / incumbent can be dethroned if they don't keep up with what people want and desire.

@troypavlek Crazy! Why is this the case? Do folks have it on in the background while they're doing something else?

Is part of the job to be done "hang out with me while I do something else?"

Replying to @ideasasylum
@ideasasylum An affiliate is essentially a partner that you split revenue with; but there's way less ceremony needed to form that partnership.

Likewise, selling on a marketplace (and splitting revenue) doesn't seem to need much paperwork.

Why can't a project partnership be the same?
