transform your passion into a profitable business
in the past i felt like i need to have a full time job to make money and support my family. but now i feel like i can make money by doing what i love. i'm not saying that you need to quit your job to become a indie maker. but you need to find a way to make money while doing what you love. so how to do that? first, you need to find a problem that you want to solve. second, you need to find a solution to that problem. third, you need to build a product that solves that problem. fourth, you need to market your product. fifth, you need to sell your product. sixth, you need to repeat the process.
i did not liked to code in the past
now when i code meaningful applications that help people to make their life easier, i feel like i'm doing what i love. also my inner voice is quiet now and i'm more focused on my goals. it's like a magic, you will feel like you're on the right path. i'm not saying that it's easy, but it's worth it. i also feel like i'm more productive now, i have more energy and i'm more motivated. also the entrepreneur mindset is absolutely something that i'm interested in. so indie maker is a perfect fit for me.
the power of building in public
building in public allows you to get feedback from your audience. you can get feedback on your product, your website, your business model, etc. you meet new people and you can learn from them. you can build a community around your brand.
when you share your process openly, you:
• create authentic connections with your audience
• receive real-time feedback on your product
• build a community around your brand
• hold yourself accountable to your goals
• learn from other makers in the space
if you're considering becoming an indie maker, remember that the journey is just as important as the destination. embrace the challenges, learn from your experiences, and don't hesitate to share your story with the world.
what's next?
right now working on my first product and i'm excited to share it with you. the product is a tool that helps you to get focus and stay focused. FocusFast is the name of the product. right now creating features and working on the website. i will keep you updated on my progress.
best regards,
