Creating a podcast is a really simple way to create some leads coming to you - http://justhitpublish.com/podcasting-matters-software-compan...

This is a crazy stat... Seriously.

You might want to add this bit into your copy. I wasn't following it from what you currently have.

Love the idea. Definitely will work for some industries.

I really can't understand this. Do I just not understand how the "game" is played. OR am I just missing something? Someone please enlighten me!

Honestly, yeah, you probably don't understand how the game is played if that is a legitimate question.

There seems to be a wave a social-related acquisitions going around. If you have a product that can be virally shared, or produces rankings or scores that people get caught up in competing for, you could be a potential acquisition target.

I think a lot of people on HN focus on solving real problems and making the world "better", which is certainly a wonderful endeavor. But that's not the path to mind-numbingly high acquisitions most of the time.

Yes! These are the things your want to hear from companies :)

Sounds like you're on the right path. Nothing to be ashamed. Although you do get that feeling when you're not "changing the world" . But if you're helping people in reality you are changing their world for the better.

I wonder how much they value the "Dropbox" brand name at. If you think sharing a file online you're probably thinking Dropbox.

I'm just starting on my journey with products and Nathan's produced so much content that I can look to for advice. I couldn't imagine the difficulty without having those available.

Congrats Nathan.

Indeed. His newsletter is chockfull of great content.

If we're going with physical attributes.

I would add - Don't mind not sleeping.

I'll add a vote for the "bootstrappers" version of this. Although I was able to make it work for my situation. Great work though. Definitely a useful tool!
