Thanks for taking the time to write the transcript! Nathan, how did you get your first few sales? You stated that you "..released the book. Sales started coming in." Those first few sales seem to be the most difficult (I'm currently trying to market an eBook myself), and I'm interested to see how you achieved your first batch of sales prior to your HN post.

From what I understand a good chunk of Nathan's early sales were from an email list launch.

Yes, the prelaunch list of 800 signups was the most valuable. Other sources of traffic were my own blog, Twitter, and Reddit.
