How We BootStrapped PadPressed To Our First 10k In Sales
- royrod 16y agoGreat progress, congrats! Your site design is really fantastic. Not just the look but the demo video, Get Started call to action, etc.
- jasonlbaptiste 16y agoInteresting story there. We'd get emails saying: Why can't we see a working demo of PadPressed? We did, but it just wasn't clear enough. So, I rewrote the site copy over the weekend to highlight that like whoa.
- brianmwang 16y agoAgreed- I really dig the design. However, one little nitpick: the copyright and credit text at the bottom of the footer are killing me with the text shadow. My eyes strained to make out the characters.
- jasonlbaptiste 16y agoyikes, that's the one thing I forgot. will get to it tonight.
- vmind 16y agoIn the About section for you on the link, it's got 'PodPressed' and is linking to podpressed.com.
- jasonlbaptiste 16y agowhoops, emailed andrew to fix!
- andreshb 16y agoThat domain now also redirects to padpressed =)
- AndrewWarner 16y agoThanks. Fixed it. He had both domains so I didn't catch the mistake when I tested it.
- redwoods 16y agoIt's great when people are so helpful. It's the little things that change how you feel about your day.
- Hubbert 16y agoJason, thanks for articulating "show progress." That is really profound and applies in many areas of life. I've seen a lot of posts about "iterate" and such, but none of that directly attacked the old advertising slogan "you never get a second chance to make a first impression," until you did.
- lancebailey 16y agoDude you inspire me to get off my hump and get to it.
