Ok #nocode I'm playing with @thejeremyredman' TaskMagic tool,...and oooooohhhhh boy is this thing sweeeeet! More to come on my findings. This thing has great potential. 🔥🔥🔥
@thejeremyredman@gridpane@AKASpencerScott@AppSumo@median Right. Not to hijack the tweet (but do checkout https://t.co/TM6dWdD0CG) but with us giving away so much UNLIMITED and introducing paywalls on features, not limits what are they going to ask for? More unlimited? Or it’s clearly a different feature
@thejeremyredman@gridpane@AKASpencerScott@AppSumo@median even if you don’t build what they want you need to deliver. I do not care about having a 0% refund rate by any means, I want to make sure that of those that bought they’re still a user in 12 months. I think a lot of LTD offerings are long shots, almost a get rich quick dream
@thejeremyredman@gridpane@AKASpencerScott@AppSumo@median I think it’s both sides. If I’m a customer and I just gave a startup money and I know they want me more than I need them (<- key factor to change) OF COURSE I’m going to ask for more. I’m not going to say thank you for giving me the opportunity to give you money
@ShaneMaglangit Hey @ShaneMaglangit I sent you an email regarding possible rate limits on your api. Wanted to reach out to you to see if any payment can be sorted out to raise limits for a tool I’m building. Thank you!
