#335 - Navigating Business Metrics and My Podcasting Conference Journey - Young Entrepreneur Mistakes

Author: Tiago Ferreira May 22, 2024 Duration: 26:58

I made a mistake with my pricing, but I'm getting over it with some meditation. I'm also excited to go to a podcast conference in London to meet people and learn more.

I talked about the importance of understanding business metrics to make good decisions, not just to look impressive. Also, AI is becoming a big deal in our field, and I'm watching how it affects mental health support.

Tiago Ferreira is a full-time builder, an Indie Founder who operates without venture capital, turning ideas into revenue-generating startups entirely on his own terms. This podcast is the audio journal of that specific journey, focused on the craft of entrepreneurship and the tangible goal of hitting $100,000 in annual recurring revenue. You’ll hear Tiago’s own candid reflections-the wins, the setbacks, and the daily lessons learned while bootstrapping. The conversations extend beyond his own desk, featuring interviews with other entrepreneurs who understand the grind of building something from nothing. It’s a deep dive into the practical realities of independent creation, from product development and marketing to mindset and sustainable growth. Tuning into this podcast feels like getting real talk from a fellow maker who’s in the trenches, making it a valuable companion for anyone navigating the often solitary path of building a business with autonomy at its core. The focus remains squarely on actionable insights and shared experiences within the indie maker community.
