7 new customers in November // POW! Monthly Status Update

Originally sent as a newsletter.

Written in 2020, 5 years ago. Tools and advice may have moved on since.

Hello,

On Tuesday, I streamed the POW! Status Update for November. Quite pleased with this one. If you would like to be notified an hour before I go live every month on the 8th, click here.

November was a good month for POW!

  • 48 customers after 8 new people subscribed and 1 canceled.

Two features were added:

  • Add/change the tag selected for menstruation
  • Choose between three “Remember me” choices when signing in for more fine-grained control.

I kept on live streaming, even celebrating my 10th anniversary as an independent consultant and indie hacker on stream.

In December, however, I am not streaming POW! work, but streaming the making of our GatsbyJS #SillySiteChallenge entry (bottledhappiness.app) every Sunday from 10.00-12.00 (GMT+1).

Marit did another four rounds of usability testing with potential customers. I am delighted to note that the design and copy resonates.

Ever since March, I have talked about a welcome sequence. I am slowly making progress, and the first email is done. It is performing well. My goal with it is to get a conversation started. So far, 5 out of the 6 who have received the email has answered.

I call that a win 🎉

Lastly, I got some incredible feedback from a canceled user on how to visualize cycle data [GitHub].

Until next week,
Benedicte
