For a short time I had become disenchanted with the corporate world, and decided I would go the entrepreneur/consultant route and try to start my own niche business. I had experience in both Developer Support and Engineering and thought I could serve that niche well.
This led to me starting to build out a suite of HelpScout integrations. They had some momentum at the beginning, but from a combination at me not being good at marketing and HelpScout’s marketplace not being mature, it was hard to keep it moving. I also ended up happy again in the corporate world, so my own motivation dwindled.
That said, the tools continue to run well today, and I just have them up and do the occasional feature addition or bug fix. I have completely removed my ego from that project, but I was very excited to see this month I got my first recurring subscription payment!
