Launching: the Build In Public Cheatsheet

👋 Hey folks, Ch Daniel here

Launching today: the v1.0 of a Cheatsheet, that might one day become a Handbook

The problem - why

It's very simple: I'm running my main business, which has got tens of thousands of paying customers and ~6,000,000+ all-time viewers.

✓ I heard about building in public a few years ago
✓ It wasn't for my main business' audience
✓ Recently, however, I started building a side-product for my main business: it's meant to help SaaS founders find&set the perfect pricing
✓ The main business felt natural, to be BiP now, as the side-product can benefit from it
✓ Because of that, I wanted to build in public this new tool called PriceUnlock

And I am! But I was clueless and afraid that I won't know what to post.

The solution

The Cheatsheet initially represented my notes, but as I shared it with others, it got some positive feedback: it was not only wanted, but also needed.

I made a few extra steps (which I wouldn't have done if it was just a private note) and here we are.

I also plan to expand on it, as the responsibility is on my shoulders. I hope those 'internal' notes would help you get started, or help you become a better builder in public.

The how

Don't forget to duplicate the Cheatsheet, delete what's not relevant and make it your own.

Once inside, you'll be able to find:

✓ A list of different types of posts, as well as practical examples (tweets, screenshots etc)
✓ A public list of those who build in public
✓ You can join the list as well, there's a form inside
✓ A board to plan your BiP journey
✓ Principles of BiP
✓ A list of tools for BiP
➕ Many more

I'd love to know how you'd make this better, what else you would need or any kind of feedback👀
