    EP98 – The hard truth about bootstrapping startups (Part 2 with Jason Cohen)

    EP98 – The hard truth about bootstrapping startups (Part 2 with Jason Cohen)

    Jason Cohen asks Justin Jackson hard questions about his startup, Transistor.fm, and what it's going to take to go full-time.

    This is the second half of our chat. Part 1 was really just setting the stage. Part 2 digs into the real-life challenges of bootstrapping a business.

    EP97 – Can you bootstrap a company on the side? (Part 1 with Jason Cohen)

    EP97 – Can you bootstrap a company on the side? (Part 1 with Jason Cohen)

    When you're building a startup you have these questions:

    • Should I work on my startup on the side, and grow it slowly?
    • Should I take investment and go full-time sooner?

    These are the questions that have been circulating in my head over the past few months.

    Which is why when Jason Cohen, founder of WPengine and someone I respect, replied to my tweet, I took note:

    "It’s difficult to find successful companies where founders didn’t work 80+ hours and took longer than four years to get to $1M ARR. If you're two years in and you still need a day job then by definition it doesn’t have good fundamentals. I usually think of "$10k/month/founder" as a rough measure of whether you're ready for full-time. Saying that should take three years is wrong. It's hard to find that companies that live and took that long."


    Today we'll be digging into that! (Check back next week for Part 2)

    EP93 – SaaS pricing with Patrick Campbell

    EP93 – SaaS pricing with Patrick Campbell

    I'm building a new SaaS in 2018 with my buddy Jon Buda called Transistor.fm. Now, we're trying to figure out our pricing. We're trying not to pretend we know everything there is to know about running a SaaS.

    So, we wanted to reach out to some experts and get outside opinions about how to create our pricing tiers. So I asked Patrick Campbell, from Price Intelligently, to help give us some direction. He blew my mind. This conversation is incredible, you're going to get so much out of it.

    Two announcements:
