1/6 I'm sure you've heard about Ship 30 for 30.
The $800 writing course.
What did it teach to a fellow writer:
To build a consistent writing habit.
It didn't promise any get-rich-quick scheme or give you the SECRET to create infinite money.

5/6 Use every opportunity you can to get feedback.
At the end of each email from my free course, Blog Like a Boss, I kindly ask people to send me their thoughts on the course.
What they liked/disliked.
I do the same on Twitter/Medium.

6/6 I reply to every comment there or on my blog posts.
It's a lot of work.
But probably the only way to know your audience better and build an even better product for them.
I gather every response in a sheet I later use to inspire my writing and my next product.

2. Immerse yourself in their problem
3. understand why they bought
3. come up with a solution you wish existed
5. use the feedback to build your product
