Marketing for Devs

💻 This is one "soft skill" every developer should learn. ⚡️ When you combine engineering with marketing, you have a super-power than nobody else does: - The ability to know what people want - The ability to build the product - The ability to promote the product and get sales

Read a great article by @mijustin about calm companies. Fantastic concept, resonated so much with me. justinjackson.ca/calm-company Not everyone wants to build a VC-funded Unicorn. Sadly the dev agency business is far away from being calm, but eventually I'll get there.

I’m reading @mijustin’s Marketing for Developers. The sheer honesty of it is exactly what I’ve needed to read this week. For many years I’ve been the developer who makes stuff cause I can, not because there is an obvious market need for it.

@mijustin do you still agree with this paragraph, or has your perspective on it changed over time?

I don’t know why, but this silly little picture is really sticking with me @mijustin

When you target a solid market (with good distribution channels) and give them a product that they're hungry for, you don't have to do much pushing or pulling. Customers just naturally move towards the products they want.

Finally got around to reading @mijustin's book Jolt (which I purchased many months ago). It's like a choose-your-own-adventure sequel to Marketing for Developers. Loads of great marketing ideas, and a very fun read. 😊

This is really smart marketing for developers.👌 twitter.com/ryanflorence/s…

Ok that was an amazing course! @mijustin has a really engaging way with the camera and the mic. 👌

The next few weeks are gonna be great. Stuff bought from @mijustin. #RefactoringUI bought. Now combine everything 😁 Thanks guys for the great stuff and inspiration @mijustin @adamwathan @steveschoger

Awesome post at looking at the truth behind starting a bootstrapped startup.

I just finished up @mijustin's Marketing for Developers course. I've enjoyed the whole thing and found it easy to digest. Would recommend.

@mijustin Already an owner of Marketing for Developers. The course and book. It's so clear and gives a lot of action items and valuable information. I don't think it only valuable to developers :)
