November 27, 2020 Launched our "first" product: $3,870 in sales :)

So @a2savior and I pulled a crazy all-nighter after working three intense days straight and we're super delighted to ship — Entrepreneur OS

It's a beautifully interconnected Notion workspace that you can install as a template. It's prebuilt with:

  • 11 dashboards
  • 53 templates
  • 23 databases

So far we've sold 47 copies for $3,870!!! What an awesome launch and thank you to everyone who supported 🙏

November 3, 2020 Made our first dollars on the internet!

As of now, it's just a mere $15 donated but the idea is indeed revolutionary per Jack Butcher's framework: https://twitter.com/jackbutcher/status/1252625385860354048

We did by creating and sharing a Notion template based on the Farnam Street decion-making journal. Here's a IH post abotu it.

Our business runs on Notion and for the past seven months, we've focusing mostly on client projects. However, service projects are difficult and take a long time to complete, so "productization" is super important as a way to diversify income and build audience.

October 12, 2020 First FT Employee!

So excited to report that @a2svior has joined Optemization full-time in October!

I've been working alone since February 2020 and its so spectacularly awesome to add someone motivated and excited to build together.

Over the years, I worked with a lot of teammates with various incentive structures and gotta say dealing with equity can be a mess. In the case of employment, the incentives are clear cut. Beyond that, Val is super duper driven, hard-working and talented. So excited for more!!

June 5, 2020 Website featured by Notion ❤️

I first shared my agency/consulting website built entirely in Notion three months ago. It's a rather controversial choice to do it on that platform. One one hand, its so easy to build but that comes at the cost of SEO and pageload speed. I am long on Notion, so I'm sure that they or the community (once the API drops), will figure it out.

On the bright side, my optemizaiton.com was officially covered and featured on their website: https://www.notion.so/customers/personal-websites

At the very least, I got this sick illustration 😃
