How Alex went from $0 to $2k MRR and three takeaways

Alex West, founder of cyberleads.co, just tweeted about his takeaways after reaching $2k in MRR.

After reading it, I was so excited that I just had to hop on a video and share this with you:
Alex made 20 products before finding one that worked. He attributes success now to finding a reliable marketing channel, and having a product people want and are willing to pay for.

This is exactly why I'm building The Foundation course series for members of SoftwareIdeas.io. Finding ideas is great, but these fundamentals on how to find and test channels and markets is the key to building a successful product.

It's what most of the founders I see are doing wrong.
