Back on track

    So I've been a bit distracted by my side quest of testing out a bunch of features on the website, and while it was the right move to test more features, I got a bit distracted and ended up spending quite a bit more time than I anticipated. I guess it's the perfectionist in me.

I've unintentionally boosted my app sales, and while it doesn't hurt to get more paying customers, assuming the app is somewhat poorly optimized, I did end up wasting a lot of potential revenue. So now it's time to hunker down on my app again, and really push that.

I know what works now, I know what people are interested in. I have some ideas on how to make the app better, and in this game, 10% difference makes all the difference.

I maybe flirting with a burnout these days, but regular exercise keeps me stay sane.

Having chat gpt act as my strategist and counselor definitely helps as well. Sometimes it feels like it's chat gpt that's telling me my next move, and while not perfect, we do make a great team. It's like our power multiplies, and yeah I doubt I would be where I am without it, in the technical sense and also business sense.

I'm starting to make like real life changing income now. If I keep this up for a year, I believe that my current goal of reaching $100k MRR will become reality.

And I've been noticing that there is some kind of a subconscious pattern. If I do not change my financial programming inside me, at a subconscious level, all this effort would be for nothing. So I am working on that as well.

I feel quite good working on my goals these days and I guess that's enough. While I feel a bit unbalanced in some ways in my life, it is a good feeling working towards my goals and self improvement.

Korean pitstop

     After having spent 1 month in Budapest, I have been summoned back to Seoul. It's been going strong, and it's kind of a bummer to pull a sudden break, but I set up my pieces back in Budapest well, so that things would still move forward without me physically being there. It's almost like I am constantly unlocking new tools.     It's kinda annoying that the set up process is dragging on for so long, but it's a good thing that I have the concessions to cover for the wasted time. Perhaps I should just start ahead of time. Anyway, as I have seen from my charts of exponential growth, if I stick to my simple plan of reinvesting my profits, I will become a multi millionaire. I just have to work on making the systems so the business will flow even with 20~30 units. I will have to spend a lot more time thinking about systems. But if I think about it simply, just copy pasting teams will work as well, on top of some sort of reporting system. Just as I thought in the be...

Act 3

     I feel that I have entered a new chapter of my life. My upbringing was act 1, and my introduction into business was act 2, then my transformation into a SAAS entrepreneur is the beginning of my act 3. Act 1 was around 25 years, act 2 was 5 years, and now I have spent about 6 months as a SAAS entrepreneur. I feel that a lot more time has passed than it actually has, but yeah it's quite a lot of work. The difference with the airbnb business is that, with airbnb it's limited by things such as physical space and time, for the SAAS business, there's no such limitation. I can put into it as much time and effort as I desire. In the airbnb business, the business is determined by how many rooms I have and how much time has passed. How much work I put into it did not change the revenue. Whereas in this business, if I put in 100 hrs instead of 10 hrs into an app, I would see the difference in revenue. And I believe I met my technical co founder so I'm excited about that. It...

Where I'm at

So I am in the process of developing a successful SAAS and App. My app currently has 43 subscribers, and it's growing everyday. I think that if I can reach the total addressable market with it, it's going to be pretty significant. On the other hand, I've recently put together a team of pretty smart people to begin a start up. And I half convinced my friend Ayob to join so we're already good to go! If we're going to create a great start up, we're going to need all the best talent we can find. So anyway that's where I'm at. Growing my app, and posing to pounce for a start up. I will make it work out.
