$17,876.38 in 7 weeks

It's been 7 weeks since the launch of Dracula PRO and I made $17,876.38 in sales.

Here are 5 lessons I recently learned.

#1

When you launch something new there's a lot of hype. The next challenge is: How you keep the momentum going?

What I'm doing now is:

  • Participating on podcasts
  • Writing about the entire journey
  • Constantly improving the product

#2

Refund requests will start to come in, but you need to stay positive.

In the beginning, I'd care more about 1 refund than all the other sales I made. Don't get personally affected by that 1 negative experience.

Focus on the "why" and try to avoid that from happening again.

#3

Keep the expenses low. It's very easy to start investing and adding additional operational costs.

How much you spend is equally important to how much you make.

Stay lean.

#4

Your launch was not the finish line, it's just the start. Listen to your users.

Here's my system:

  1. A user sends me an email with feedback
  2. I categorize their request and save their email
  3. Once I'm done with their request, I contact them directly before anyone else

#5

Don't get distracted. With everything that is happening in the world, it's very easy to get distracted and lose motivation.

If you already have a side-project, keep going.
If you don't have a side-project, what are you waiting for? Today is a great day to start.

    Wow that's a huge achievement Zeno!
    Congrats ✨
    The theme is also great...

    I don't know, even I still can't figure out what actually happens when we purchase a theme, for example I purchased your theme, now what? How will they work?

    I never bought a theme so just asking...
