Build Your SaaS

When should bootstrappers get paid?


Listen Later

Recorded on April fools day! Here's what we covered:

  • If you're bootstrapping, when should you get a salary?
  • An update on the worst day ever. (We're fine now)
  • A SPECIAL SURPRISE
  • "It feels like there is this convergence in podcasting and I don’t know what to do about it."
  • Anxiety and insecurity about "missing out on better opportunities."

★ Thanks to our sponsors:

  • Balsamiq: They make a low-fidelity wireframing tool, specifically geared for non-designers. Get in the zone, and I feel creative right away. Try out their free trial: balsamiq.com
  • Clubhouse.io: Clubhouse is the first project management platform for software development that brings everyone together. It's designed for developers, but product folks, marketing, support folks love using it. Get two months free: clubhouse.io/build.
