Episode 6: Mubashar Iqbal, the king of side-projects

Listen Later

I got the chance to talk one of the people I admire the most in the maker world. Mubashar Iqbal ("but you can call me Mubs") is an incredibly prolific maker with decades of experience building things. 

We talk about his process for coming up with product ideas, his experience collaborating with other makers, and the learnings from his past and current projects. 

Resources mentioned:

  • Making a Side Project article series by Mubs.
  • Pod Hunt - like Product Hunt but for podcast episodes.
  • The list of all the projects Mubs worked on.
  • Quuu - a social media tool he helped get off the ground.
  • one hour saas - an experiment to build a SaaS business in just one hour a day.
  • Marketing Stack - a simple project with more than 5000 upvotes on Product Hunt.
  • Maker Pad - which emerged through his collaboration with Ben Tossel.
  • Founderpath - his current project that he started together with Nathan Latka.
