Last Day of May: Daily Stand Up

Last day to complete your May epics! Get your ass in here!

Why?

That extra nudge of accountability to achieve even a small step on your IH journey each day.

To join in:

01 Share your epic (a big chunk of work with a meaty objective) you'd like to complete by the end of May.

02 Share what you accomplished yesterday.

03 Share what you commit to accomplishing today.

04 Comment on at least one fellow hacker's progress and give them an IH Point for their check in.

Optional:

05 Share your Work In Progress to underscore your accomplishments.

Then tune in the tomorrow to share how you did on your own tasks!

    EPIC for June 2019: POC/MVP of a new product

    YESTERDAY - completed the "shark bait" test from "will it fly?", got interesting responses from close friends

    KUDOS @jacobk for launching the landing page

      Thanks, @kirobaito!
      Good luck with your MVP. After all, that's the most important step, to begin with.

    EPIC - Start regularly producing an email newsletter for Footballr.co

    YESTERDAY - Launched the landing page - https://footballr.co/ - and set up all the backend

      Have you heard of https://substack.com/ ?

      Might save some time building features.

      If you plan to charge for the newsletter or make a premium version they make it easy.

        Hey, @volkandkaya I actually did.
        I even watched the latest Y Combinator Podcast episode with the CEO of Substack, Chris Best.

        Yet, my business model is much different, I want my newsletter to be free for everyone, but sponsored by football-related brands.

        But thanks for the tip!

        1. 1

          Nice, haven't seen the episode yet.

          I wouldn't be shocked if they went into the ad space :)
