Deals ranged between $12-120k/year. We were very much the "deer" range vs rabbits or elephant hunting. The customers ranged from small to mid sized companies, we only had 2-3 true enterprises at the time.
Getting first 1-10 paying clients is really tough. And with the $12k-$120k/year range, it might have been really tough. Would you be able to share how did you get those first few paid clients? Thanks.
No response to this post can mean many things:
1. Everyone else (just like me) is also drinking from the survival bias success stories firehose.
2. There might not be many authentic referral-worthy failure stories books (there might be individual stories, though)
3. This piece just fell through the HN cracks:)
The keyboard shortcut in finder to take you to your home directory, cmd + shift + h if I recall correctly. Makes it trivial to keyboard navigate to anything when you can easily start from the same place every time!
