Stand up: Who's hustling on Saturday?

What will you accomplish by end of November?

What did you do yesterday to work toward your goal?

What will you do today?

on November 16, 2019
  1. 3

    I release my initial version last Thursday.
    Got my first 20 users in the last 3 days!!
    So today, I am working on analyzing what brought those 20 users, how they behaved on the website and some more feedback to implement on the product!

  2. 2

    end of November: I want one paying customer
    yesterday: nada, client work, but I got time today
    today: gonna try to make myself useful in a webdev group reddit and update some documentation to demonstrate use of the new API Key requirements...

    ... and think about updating the site to go from closed beta to something more welcoming. I have AutomatedApi.com set up now to allow one free api regardless of pay status.

    Today: Getting email sending working on production via AWS SQS and Lambda. Stretch goal of getting email open tracking working also.

    November: Fully functioning email platform that can send campaigns w/ live data.

    November Goals

    • Set up a plan to turn Announcr into a SaaS business, and remove the current restriction of needing a physical location, thus supporting online businesses as well.
    • Launch lead capture site with streamlined messaging.

    Yesterday, I turned 20 or so more voice memos into stories in Clubhouse so I can get tracking and moving forward. Need a nice runway of things vetted and ready to go because my day job has been ripping all my time away for several weeks.

    This weekend I want to set up the ability to create an org/group without a location for the simple purpose of sending out announcements to anyone who subscribes to the group segments.

    So the 2 major pieces there are:

    • Org definition
    • Segment definition

    If I make it through that I will work on segment/group subscribing UI.

      Hey Jim, it's been awhile since I've looked at the site for Brooklet. Kudos.. I can tell what the app does right away, and it looks sharp. Good luck on the conversions!

    👋 Still hacking away on Moon!

    Yesterday while the wife and kid were sleeping I threw together the group filtering feature that was sorely missing.

    Now that I have that done, I think the app is pretty close to being ready for private beta testing so that will be my goal for November. If anyone is interested in testing it out give me a shout!

    Yesterday I released imdone 1.3.19. Today, I'm working on two short videos (under 2 min.) that will introduce users to imdone's features.

    What will you accomplish by end of November?

    • Create a budget for 2020 (How much will it cost for me to host this service, how much can I budget to promote this product)
    • Finish mockups!
    • Start designing prototype
    • Reach out to 5 business owners a day

    What did you do yesterday to work toward your goal?

    • starting working on my budget for 2020
    • laid out my paper mockups all over my floor
    • did not reach out to any business owners

    What will you do today?

    • help with the FindCollabs Rehack Hackthon on support
    • finish mockups
    • reach out to my remaining quota of business owners for the week

    Practicing self-care by spending a few days in Bacalar, Mexico. Managed to convince myself to leave my laptop at home and take a break from coding.

    What will you accomplish by end of November?
    Complete UI designs for HeadOffice

    What did you do yesterday to work toward your goal?
    Researched different designs and concepts

    What will you do today?
    Implement ideas that I liked.

  11. 1

    End of November: finish new landing page, including new videos, testimonials, design and copy.

    Yesterday: Meandering but meaningful progress... but eyes hurt from too much screen time. 2nd or 3rd day in a row of that.

    Today: Timeboxing. Giving myself until 1pm to make progress, and then it's screens off and time to mentally recharge away from the project.
