Bootstrapped Web8 Huhti 2022

Everything Must Go

We have some big news to share before we go on a (much needed) two-week hiatus.

Brian talks about his sale of Productize, in addition to nearly every other business he has owned. Jordan talks about his latest tweet thread, responding to Moiz Ali’s criticisms of Shopify. We also talk about the power of audio, networking through podcasting, and marketing.

“The relationship built through audio is so much more powerful. It’s really hard to do that with copywriting, with a website, with ads. It’s just much harder to do.” – Jordan Powered By the Tweet This PluginTweet This

Here are today’s conversation points:

Taking a break and staying away from the computer while on vacation
Moiz Ali’s tweet about Shopify’s problems
- The problems that they need to solve
Marketing and speaking your mind
The sale of the Productize brand (and everything else)
Networking through podcasting
- Connecting with people through audio
Competitors and marketing

“I would focus on one thing at a time, but (in my experience) it’s not the end of the world to have a few different things going and learn and hone different types of chops and skillsets and meet different people.” – Brian Powered By the Tweet This PluginTweet This
