I wish the article had "screenshots" to show what was being changed, and why. It would help people to visualize and apply the steps better to their startups. Excellent read!

That's awesome and glad to hear you're doing well. I think you have a couple of options:

1/ Keep running it by yourself. 2/ Hire an assistant to take care of time-consuming small tasks. 3/ You could always talk to a couple of larger competitors and see if they're interested in buying you out.

I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum ... Too many ideas.

What I'm working on now: 1. www.ghacklabs.com 2. www.paypress.co

Other domains that I bought and want to do something with: (not online)

1. www.pitchgems.com 2. www.startupjail.com 3. www.startuppimp.com 4. www.airaccelerate.com 5. www.ycdinners.com

+ a few more ...

I used to find it hard to get ideas for new projects. Now, I see problems OR something just cool I'd like to do. I don't have the bandwidth to handle everything so I've had to put put some things on the back burner.

I've actually written about over 200 startups in the past few weeks, and one thing I really like about this - working out trends i.e. seeing overcrowded places and knowing not to even bother about going there (ex. 50 food apps - menu app, delivery app, food marketplace etc ....)

I stumbled upon this, which I think is pretty cool, www.wealthnation.com (every time you spend money on your card, it rounds up your purchases to the nearest dollar and saves them for you). On the other hand, you also have Robo-advisors like "Acorns" who do the same thing, but instead of saving it - they invest it shares.

If its execs, try "sales by network." Ask your friends for introductions to people, set up a coffee / or quick chat - and, take it from there. I know 2 ex-Deloitte guys that are nailing this (everything they do is based on friends referrals to C-level execs).

You cracked me up :) I was chatting to another programmer about this - he broke it down like this...

It's like making a car 10cm longer. To change the paint we'll spray paint it and you can pick it up tomorrow. If you want to change to leather seats then it’s going to be a few days work come back at the end of the week.

But if you want the car 10cm longer then that’ll cost millions – and, likely take a year to complete.”
