Welcome to The Growth Letter 👊

Hi 👋

A few months ago, I wrote a pilot article / video about Pieter Levels & Nomad List, I’ve gotten great feedback about it, and the results were promising too!

Promising analytics for the website
Website stats recently (from SEO with only one article)
The video’s stats
And even got a follow from the man himself 🤯

With that kind of results for a first piece of content, any good marketer would’ve dropped everything to focus on YouTube.

But I’m a weirdo, so I ended up not publishing anything for more than 6 months… 🥲

There is a reason for this though.

Even with these results, I felt like a fraud, I was giving advice on how to grow a SaaS, but I hadn’t really built any myself.

And I don’t want to become a guru who’s all talk.

So I got to work, and in the last 6 months I focused on building up my skills, and I did a few cool things:

  • I Learned Web Scraping from this course.

  • Built my first app YT Careers & contributed to the open source project it is based on.

  • And I started getting more responsibility at my current job (SchoolMaker), where I now manage a small team, take care of product ownership, and of the company’s marketing.

I think that I now have more things that are worth sharing, and I’m excited to start creating content again, where I’ll study successful SaaS founders and businesses, and also document what I work on.

So what will I share in this newsletter?

I want to keep it pretty simple for now, I’ll write issues around once a month about:

  • Things I've built 👨‍💻

  • Things I’ve learned 🧠

  • New videos, articles, and resources I publish ✨

See you soon,

Alex
