Betting on the New Gumroad
- sanketsaurav 5y agoThe new website and branding looks great. Congratulations!
- rsj_hn 5y agoI like this notion of not chasing after huge growth, cutting costs, and still being profitable. This path leads to variety, which is crucial to a healthy internet ecosystem.
- kranke155 5y agoLove Gumroad. Was scared that this would be a "pivot" post to "something new". Instead it's a celebration of what made them great. A promise to keep their workforce happy. An idea of going agaisnt "growth at all costs". Fantastic!
- SamuelAdams 5y agoI thought they contracted out their entire staff? Seems that “keeping their workforce happy” goes against contracting. If you do a contract and you like the client, you might pick up another one. Otherwise no hard feelings, get the current contract done and go work for someone else. https://sahillavingia.com/work https://sahillavingia.com/work
- kranke155 5y agoThat post doesn’t quite seem to imply that people just contract in and out like freelancers, but more that they are hired at a per hour rate on a permanent basis. Seems like an interesting idea tbh.
