Daniel? He’s been a friend of mine in person for over a decade. I knew him long before his exit from tech into working for himself. He’s a wonderful human being, a kind and gentle man who enjoys mentoring people and being with his children.
He’s also building his business I assume, which I guess entails a certain amount of salesmanship and playing the game if your business is in the orbit of social media. I’m always surprised by the personal hot takes
I admired him in his early days too. Yet lately he really stands out as a fucking idiot in my twitter timeline every once in a while to the point of having to block him.
A full-grown adult man just chasing clout, what a fucking clown.
Agreed. I used to go on Twitter almost exclusively for his content. Now I have him blocked. What an embarrassing fall from grace all in search of the next like and follower. Addiction to engagement claims another one. Society is materially worse off converting talented workers into social media course selling charlatans.
1. decide on an industry you have a bit of experience in.
2. look where those users are. they might be in subreddits or fb groups or wherever.
3. look for apps they use. there are lots of it in android play store and apple store.
4. read the helpful and critical reviews. these statements prove that there is demand, that some people like it, and that some people care enough to voice out their frustrations.
5. if you havent read the mom test, find a pirated copy, or just buy it. this book will course correct your interactions and expectations with your users.
