The First 100k Users Are The Hardest

“Be a painkiller. Not a vitamin.” – Matt Mullenweg

Matt Mullenweg is one of the co-founders of the Wordpress script that uses this blog. I recently stumbled upon his audio and found it fantastic. You should listen to it. (Its educational as well as entertaining!)

Matt gives you his 13 points that will help you to grow from 1 user to 100,000 users!

Some of the things he talks about are:

  • Being passionate
  • Doing your own support
  • Having metrics for everything you do
  • Being a painkiller – not a vitamin

The first 100k users are always the hardest
