Bootstrapper's tales
The tales of an indie hacker on a quest to create a side business
Hi! I’m a FAANG product person by day and a bootstrapper by night on a quest to create a side hustle.
My goal is to learn by doing. The plan is simple: think, try, learn and iterate. And in the process, share my efforts and insights with you.
Throughout my career I have been working in creating valuable products, so the process is not strange to me. However, I always had “training wheels”. Whether it’s in big tech or a small startup I’ve always had a great starting point and easy access to users.
So I’m curious:
- How do you build something from scratch?
- How do you reach your target audience without a marketing budget?
- How do you really know if a product will work without easy access to users?
All of these questions and more I plan to explore simply by creating stuff and see what works.
Join me on my quest!
