Marketing for Developers: How to Build Software People Want
Download MP3I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).
I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.
This week I’m talking to Justin Jackson, Canadian entrepreneur, speaker, Saas growth and marketing advisor, and author of Marketing for Developers and Jolt!.
This episode is a great listen for developers who aren’t marketers themselves but want to launch a product or service.
