Listen Later

In episode 609, join Rob Walling for a solo adventure as he answers a handful of listener questions ranging from when it makes sense to have multiple LLCs and hiring task-level vs. project-level thinkers to planning for large projects. He also shares his thought process behind ways you can build a complex mobile app prototype in a capital efficient manner.

Topics we cover: 

[1:56] Is it worth it to create multiple LLCs? 

[6:10] Do you have any tips for how to find the time to work on future improvements when it feels like you don't have time to do anything but fix bugs and answer support tickets? 

[13:01] Do you have any advice around how to build a complex mobile app MVP in a capital efficient manner? 

[20:30] Should internal company, marketing and transactional emails be on the same domain? 

[22:27] How do you plan for a large project?
