Hi, I’m Max, I build things, break things, and occasionally make them work. 🇬🇭

Hi guys 👋🏽, I’ve been working on a couple of projects and I’d love to let you in on them, let’s goooo 😄

@xpeditionhubert If it’s Norrsken 22, I do?

[FiDCon @fidconofficial]

We went quiet for a moment .
Here’s why FiDCon is coming to Nigeria.

🇳🇬 Lagos, we’re organising a mixer just for you for the creatives, the builders, the ones making things happen

Think of it as your first look at what’s coming in December.

Full announcement dropping soon.

"It's rare to find legal software that truly understands the realities of legal practice in Ghana."

We've been working hard to earn words like that. 🙏
Clerra — built for how law actually works here.

This is usually the response you get when you ask family and friends what their thoughts are.

[Lotanna Ezeike 💳 @lottsnomad]

too many founders building for people who say “that’s cool” instead of people who say “i need that”

@SemudaraAbayomi 😅

Beautifully put!

Anytime I see Peller, I’m reminded that there are probably thousands of people who understand social media, branding, algorithms, and monetization better than him academically… but he just did the thing.

Now he’s rich, influential, and massively visible.

That’s the trap a lot of people fall into:
they keep trying to “fully master” something before they start, while someone else with less knowledge but more action is already building momentum in public.

The truth is, you’ll probably never feel like you’ve mastered anything completely.
Most people learn by doing, adapting, failing publicly, and evolving in real time.

Execution compounds faster than overthinking ever will.

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

@xpeditionhubert @KwesiHubert He got my attention… now let me look for him 😅

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

@Joojo_Dontoh Yes. That’s the clarity we are getting now.

@6youalone Allow me to be a little hopeful 😅.

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

My exact thought when I saw that too. 260$ is a little too high. I’d like to understand how they got to those figures.

[MacJordan 👨🏾‍💻🇨🇦🇬🇭 @MacJordaN]

Ghana’s new e-Visa system is a good idea but charging USD $260 for a standard single-entry visa is not.

Across West Africa, these are E-Visa charges from our neighbors:
Benin 🇧🇯 : ~€50
Côte d’Ivoire 🇨🇮 : ~€73
Togo 🇹🇬 : ~€39–€100
Guinea 🇬🇳 : ~$80
Liberia 🇱🇷 : ~$102
Nigeria 🇳🇬 : ~$160 (US applicants)

Meanwhile, Ghana is charging $260 standard and up to $796 for expedited multiple-entry visas. How do we say “Ghana is open for business” while pricing ourselves above the sub-region?

Digitizing visas should make travel easier and more competitive, not turn Ghana into one of the most expensive entry points in West Africa.
@GhanaMFA & @S_OkudzetoAblak kindly look into this again!

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

@thecornisians Totally agree, let users explore the product freely up to the point of commitment (payment, favoriting, saving, anything that genuinely requires knowing who they are). That's where asking for identity earns its friction. Anything earlier gets in the way.

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

@thecornisians How you also intend to market and sell. 2/2

[Maxwell Cofie @MaxwellCofie]

@thecornisians There are certain products or apps, you might have to do the education or whatever at the point of marketing or advertisement, so once users get the app they are well informed as to what, it is about. So again, it depends on what you’re building. 1/2

The fastest way to become appropriately confident is to become dangerously competent.
