Generosity is a virtue when you’re in business for yourself. Being the small guy and sacrificing a bit at the beginning by giving away your livelihood not only builds good karma but also and more importantly builds trust.
I have a feeling that if given the choice, people like free only if it’s actually good stuff. Nobody wants free crap.
Anyway, here’s my hopeful upperhand:
- More stunning design
- Creativity, energy, less scripted
- Interesting ideas
- Excellent writing
I aim to build something people will want to be a part of even if they feel they don’t have to be. I don’t want to become a business that people feel they need so that’s why they’re calling me.
Also to keep in mind: not too many people will be passionate about this as much as I am. Many people don’t have the time to do it. What ever.
