As a corporate employee, I used to dread traveling for work... But not anymore! ✈️ Just had a blast visiting Jonathan Kuipers and Lindsey with Olivia Lau -- hiking, fishing, and strategizing about what's next for ProjectionLab! 🏞️ 🎣

$50k+ MRR?!! 😱 4 years ago, this seemed literally impossible. If you asked what my odds were of ever making a living building indie software... I would have said: 1-5% Back then: ❌ $0 MRR ❌ No marketing experience ❌ Graveyard of side projects I never tried to monetize πŸ’‘
