What skills do you need to make an app that hits $100K/year in revenue?
All the skills I mention below are learned skills that you can build along the way. You don’t need to have them all to get started
12 skills I recommend:
1. Marketing ⬇️
1. Marketing: The most important determiner of success of an app is marketing. Who is going to pay you if they can’t find your product?
Even buying in-app purchases is marketing within your product
But marketing isn’t just “posting on social media.” It’s about truly understanding what your customer wants and what message resonates with them.
I knew NOTHING about marketing when I got started making apps, but I learned along the way. I made many marketing mistakes but as I got better, my products got better.
Now I work on marketing before I write a single line of code
I'll create more follow up threads about marketing because it's that important
