What started as a fun side project turned into much more than that, including a small but successful exit.
We did a lot of things right, like patiently listening to customers, and there were a few missteps along the way, usually when trying to do too much on a shoestring budget.
But overall, it taught me about what’s important when trying to grow a new product/business, which I’ll take into future endeavors.
