๐ spend a whole year learning SEO and content strategy
๐ And will only be able to scale his business with 1%
While his competitors (with money and resources) will grow exponentially in the field
How would you do it as a bootstrapper, when ...
you need a UI/UX designer ?
you need a sales team ?
you need to pay for that AWS bill ?
you need to pay for ads ?

โ ๏ธYou donโt have a #business unless you have a paying client.
โ ๏ธ And you canโt really know if your product is really good, unless someone is willing to #pay for it.
