Throwing my hat into the ring for the #RCGrowthChallenge. I've grown @cv_engineer_hq organically to 300k MAU but I'm struggling to run ads profitably (ROAS ~68%). Hopefully @RevenueCat and @stevepyoung can help with that!
Cut the @cv_engineer_hq iOS app download size by 26% in about 2 hours using @emergetools 🚀
Looks like @zapier are trying to charge for tasks above my plan's limit even though I have this disabled 🙃 💸
PMs will do anything to avoid work
If you’re a PM and you’re still writing Jira tickets (other than an occasional one here and there), find a way to not.
e.g. empower your engineers to write their own tickets.
Caveat: you still are responsible for ensuring the AC is appropriate and customer oriented. But frankly, if you do it right, this can also be mostly delegated.
If you can get out of Jira, you have the opportunity to significantly scale you and your team’s impact.
I haven’t written a ticket in literally years and our overall impact has grown immensely.
Once you do it, you’ll never look back.
Been slowly improving the @cv_engineer_hq translations with the help of @lokalise 🇫🇷 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Not sure @Strava sending everyone I know a push notification because I’ve just done my first (very slow) run in months is in the true spirit of Xmas
Recently switched to @RevenueCat after Google forced me to rewrite the @cv_engineer_hq billing code twice in 2 years. Works perfectly 👌🏻
💰 Recently, @GergelyOrosz shared the jump in #IndieDevs shipping apps with RevenueCat 🚀
For everyone that's inspired to build, in the hopes of seeing the type of successes shared by @oliverbytes, @4bh1nav, @SebastianRoehl, etc
