Interviews with bootstrappers and entrepreneurs to get better at building and selling products.

    Quickie - Marketing for Developers

    Quickie - Marketing for Developers

    As I became a better developer over the years, I got worse at marketing. My brain can't seem to do both of those things at once.

    I put a post out on Twitter, and got some great responses that helped me a lot. Here's the thread: https://twitter.com/scottbolinger/status/1328750436031971328

    In this episode I talk about the responses that I liked the most, and what I am doing with AppPresser marketing as a result.

    Enjoy!

    15. Tony Perez - What Being Acquired is Really Like

    15. Tony Perez - What Being Acquired is Really Like

    Tony started Sucuri, a security company, which was acquired by GoDaddy a few years ago. In this episode he gets real about what acquisition is really like as an entrepreneur, and it's not what you might expect. Tony tells us the struggles he had, including depression and self-doubt, and how there is very little fanfare in this process. 
    I like to hear from Tony because he plays in the big leagues, even before they were acquired they were doing 8 figures, and now they are with a multi-billion dollar company. Enjoy!

Great podcast for product makers

Awesome interviews with interesting product people. Scott has a great deal of business experience himself so the questions are to the point and the answers are usually quite useful & insightful.
