I make atlist.com, sitebuilderreport.com and music (spoti.fi/2XszJPi). I also mess around on YouTube (bit.ly/3kMfV8J) and TikTok (bit.ly/3F3hPbS).

Sweet relief. Atlist has officially dumped MailChimp. 👏 It saves us hundreds of dollars per month... but more importantly we no longer have to deal with feature limitations and pricing that required constant vigilance. 😤

Anyone advocating for employees / founders to work 40+ hours a week needs to share a screenshot of their Screen Time too. I wanna see Twitter, Instagram, Reddit YouTube usage from these big talkers 😅

Huh — maybe it's better to NOT capitalize every word in a YouTube title. 🤔 My test: 1. I Tried a Treadmill Desk for 30 Days 2. I tried a treadmill desk for 30 days Winner was #2. (Not by much — but enough to be impactful on high-performing videos.)

It’s depressing that when something as important as the capital gains tax is being debated many journalists keep reporting that the tax is moving from 50% to 66%. It’s wrong and misleading. Actual increase is more like 8%. Can we please try to be accurate as a starting point??

Views on a recent YouTube video. It's crazy how important packaging (thumb and title) is. The right title can transform an old underperforming video into a banger. Every big YouTube creator says this... but it took years of underperforming videos for me to actually get it. 😅

Before a customer Zoom call: "Ugh. Gah. Jeez. So annoying. What a waste of time. Why did I say I would do this.... " After a customer Zoom call: "Wow. That was great. Nice person. Fascinating to hear how they're thinking about Atlist. I need to do this more often..." 😅

REAL competition pushes Google to lower their prices 👀 Ola Maps is a Google Maps API competitor in India. They’re also significantly cheaper. Google is feeling the heat of competition and had to slice prices ~70% in India.

Friends don't let friends use MailChimp. Here’s why Mailchimp's dishonest pricing led me to cancel after being a customer for 13 years.

Every bad plumber, HVAC or general contractor experience I've had has been a "brand" like these. Every GOOD experience has come from working directly with an individual. I wish there was a marketplace for individual providers. No "brands" allowed. Name and face.

This is the fascinating thing about Scorsese movies. People read dramatically different narratives from them. Like Wolf of Wall Street — some watched it and thought it celebrated Jordan Belfort. Others saw it as a tragic story about excessive ambition.

IMO you just want a "sign of life" when starting a new marketing channel. Don't worry about it being profitable and don't be too cheap. You just want to see if it CAN work. Cause if it works, you'll probably spend years optimizing it anyways 😅

It’s crazy that all this influence cost Russia just $10 million?? Buying political influencers is a bargain. This has to be just the tip of the iceberg, right? Yet another reason to distrust everything you read on social media 😬

Anyone have a great experience with a Canadian accountant? Looking for a small-office. Preferably strong communication skills.

Took an hour to try Framer this afternoon! I think I get why it's so popular... It's like they rebuilt and reorganized Webflow to make it way simpler. I'm intrigued 😊
