also, how long shoul
[2024-02-13 01:44:28 PM] : also, how long should it take to launch your first product? in the 30x500 videos, there is a launch sequence of 5 ebombs. Is dropping one launch ebomb a week a good cadence? That means that if we start the launch sequence as soon as we pick what product to build, we can have ~5 weeks to launch a product? I think before seeing that video I was planning to launch a product in 2 weeks, is that too ambitious?

[2024-02-13 02:09:37 PM] : Yep same, I space them out over a week or 2, with a day or 2 between emails. I’ve usually done at least one or a few emails leading up to doors open, then a “doors are open” email, then a few mid-launch ones (ebombs, maybe an FAQ), then a few closer-spaced ones toward the end. Stuff like “closing tomorrow”, then “closing today”, maybe even a “closing in 2 hours” near the end
[2024-02-13 02:11:23 PM] : oh, but if the question is the product development
[2024-02-13 02:11:27 PM] : varies hugely
[2024-02-13 02:23:20 PM] : Yea so I was wondering about both the launch sequence and the product development. How long should product development take? I understand it can vary hugely, but what is a good timeline to shoot for, assuming I can scope down the product too so that I can meet the timeline.
[2024-02-13 02:30:52 PM] : if you could do a product in a day that would be valuable and people would pay for, that's pretty cool
[2024-02-13 02:31:14 PM] : but I've never managed anything that quickly
[2024-02-13 02:54:16 PM] : ok, so I think what you're saying is, as quickly as possible?
[2024-02-13 02:54:56 PM] : I'm just wondering what is a good size of product / amount of time to shoot for for a first product
[2024-02-13 02:57:23 PM] : yeah, as small as possible while still addressing a crispy pain IMO. I did a book as my first one and it took months to write. Kinda wish I had scoped it down more and saved the rest for V2 or something.

‘Your goal is to save them 10 hours of work or money—not to totally makeover their life.’
’Keep it small and sharp; the bigger the project, the harder the fail
[2024-02-16 10:27:11 PM] : BINGO
