Learning to code has changed my life. It's allowed me to pay for some really expensive stuff like: • Getting married in Thailand (2015) • Buying my first house (2018) and then moving (2021) • Having three kids (2019, 2021, 2022) Here's my story:

Best city you've ever visited? Tough call for me but Rome (in spite of all the hype) was fucking ace. ✅ Great food (especially coffee and gelato) ✅ Amazing history/architecture ✅ Beautiful people

@IAmAaronWill I'd underscore that this is particularly dangerous if you tell friends and family. Of course they're going to back your great idea.

✅ Tip: All CTAs should send the user back to the store with the coupon code pre-populated at checkout. Use a 'welcome mat' popup or something similar to notify them that the discount has been applied. This stops them abandoning their checkout in search of a coupon code.

You can use a browse abandonment flow to follow up with customers who have looked at products but didn't add anything to their cart. Showcase what they've looked at and tempt them back with a flash sale. Great way to make extra $$$

Seeing a lot of interest in dropshipping on Etsy, at least from @craigtyr who seems to be having a lot of success in the space. What's your thoughts on FBA and Shopify dropshipping? Now overly saturated and too competitive?

🧪 This thread offers a starting point but isn't exhaustive. Experiment with additional reminders, shorter/longer sequences and potentially sending messages over a longer/shorter time period than just daily. Refine it until it works for you and your store.

@TheJackForge This is a big driver for me right now. The market for contract JS developers has been great in the UK the past few years but there's no guarantee it'll stay that way. I'm surprised they even bother reaching out to you.

If you're starting out, it can seem like a massive leap to get from "learning to code" to "solo dev agency making bank". It took me years but the good news for you is that the path is actually quite well defined and reasonably easy to repeat. Small steps. Big wins.

Seems to be a lot of decent advice to learn a skill and start making...say $10K/month for yourself. Seems also to be a lot of accounts of young dudes who love @Cobratate and want to sell you on their $2500 course (with Discord channel). Passed step 1 but too cynical for step 2

What big changes do you foresee in software engineering over the next 5 years?
