- My husband taking calls Yeah, I don't think neither of us will ever go back to working in an office
- 🚀A startup needs 3 things to be successful: 1. Solve a problem or fulfill a need or want 2. Develop a viable business model 3. Tell a great story Without all 3 you’ll never scale. - Andrew Gazdecki, in “Getting Acquired”
- 😬This may sound lame, but… I need a female founder friend. Anybody out there?
- Twitter right now: Everybody (and their dog) building a personal brand All the “Twitter influencers” commenting and liking each other’s tweets thinking “I’m building a business here” Are you really? 😬
- 🚀I’m preparing to launch on Product Hunt soon. What is important for me to keep in mind? Any tips?
- When I hear: 9/10 startups fail. Well, very likely all these 10 startups were created by the same founder and the 10th was the one that finally succeeded 🚀
- Every cold email: “can you hop on a call?” My answer if I’m slightly interested: “I can't join a call. Please send me more details about your service and pricing, and I'll take a look at it.” Most don't even get back to me. And there you have it 😒
- The company I have together with my husband officially makes enough money to cover all our expenses and bubble tea I consume monthly. Living the dream! 🤩
- How do I avoid being a clueless non-technical founder? I talk to my cofounder about technical issues and frameworks all the time so I better understand this side of the business. Just trying not to be the person that says: “can you please just add this feature/button here?” 😅
- My goal right now is to become a customer acquisition geek 🤓 I want to be able to look at a business or idea and say: "Here’s how you can get your first 10, 100 and 1000 customers" 😎
- It’s official: my husband and I are going on a nomad year! 🤩 We are 2 months away from the first leg of the journey. Time to do some planning and sell our stuff.
- I ran Google ads in May. Results: 14,500 paid impressions 1,920 paid clicks Ad spend: €230.00 Cost per click: €0.12 Customer acquisition cost: €4.33 📈 Revenue growth of 40% compared to April Now I’ll start testing YouTube ads.
- Funny thing about having your own business/being your own boss: Public holidays don’t feel the same anymore. I’ve been consistently forgetting there’s a holiday coming up. 😅
