Hey there 👋

This is Ayush 🙏

Just popping in your inbox to say hello and to give you a little update on the month gone by.

I feel like by buying one of my products you have invested in my journey a little.

So I write this email to you every month, as an investor update of sorts.

Keeps me accountable😅

I will give you a quick brief on all the projects I'm working on.

Won't take long, it's all bullet points, and less than 500 words 😉

Let's go 👇

​

• I finally launched my writing course this month 😅
• Took me 6 weeks to build, but it was worth it. I'm loving the final result, and got some sales as well 😀
• Next I'm trying to learn google ads and see if I can drive some paid traffic to the product. Maybe that's a traffic channel I've been ignoring 🤔
• My premium newsletter Listen Up IH reached $13 MRR this month.😅
• Most of the traffic to it is coming from the solo founder playbook. People really love that post 🙏
• I'm doing research for the next post in that series: First 100 users playbook. 💯
• Should be able to ship it some time in the next couple of weeks. Let's see 🤞
• I've paused my ghostwriting service for this quarter. Want to focus on building products instead of selling services this quarter 🤷
• Still doing Twitter strategy consults, helping people figure out the best way to grow their Twitter account. If you're interested, do grab the early bird price. 🦉
• Investing in my education a lot this quarter as well 📚
• ​Joined Daniel Vassallo's small bets community. It's a fantastic place, like the university I wished existed. 🏫
• Reading interesting books like Dotcom secrets and Launch. So much to learn around building a business around knowledge products 🔍
• ​Starting a new project called "Indie Business Lessons" 🧑‍💼
• Where every few weeks I get a domain expert and bunch of friends on a Zoom call, and we all gain from their expertise. 🧑‍🏫
• The first such event happens next week : May 13th 2022📅
• It's about finding business opportunities in niche online communities. There are limited seats, if you're interested, then do join us ⌚
• My friend Matthias who runs the "community validated" newsletter is sharing his wisdom. Very excited for it 🤩
• ​My Twitter account crossed 3000 this month. That's a big deal for me, grateful to the folks who choose to read my thoughts every day 🙏
• I've also become more intentional about my weekly personal newsletter 📩
• Sharing the ups and downs of my entrepreneurial journey there 😅
• It's good for friends who aren't active on Twitter to follow my story. 🤗
• Plus I also share the experiments I run, with good and bad results, so people find value in that as well 😀
• My private invite only community of Twitter friends crossed 50 people last week 🤩
• Meeting so many interesting people, and having interesting discussions with them in a safe space. Super grateful for the community 🙏
• Planning to launch a job board this month. Maybe. Let's see, still not convinced on the pros and cons of running a job board 🤔
• But I'm also feeling anxious about the recurring costs I will have to bear for running so many projects. Let's see how things go 🤞

​

That's it for today.

As you can see I've got plenty going on 😅

But I'm enjoying it a lot as well. It's like I'm learning entrepreneurship on steroids.

And for that, I want to thank you more than anyone, coz you have chosen to show faith in my work from very early on my journey.

Thank you so much for that.

See you next month.

Cheers,

Ayush 🙏
