Welcome to day nine of the useaffiliates.com build log! This series covers my journey of building a business from scratch in public. If you missed day eight, you could check it out here. I also uploaded today's Twitch stream to YouTube if you want to watch the replay.
Last week I wrote an update about making some internet money, well today I am so proud to say that this trend continues! I am officially making some MMR with Twitch subscriptions. Once the first person subscribed, two more followed! 🚀
Two weeks ago, I imagined that becoming an affiliate (not even gaining subscribers) was something two months into the future. It's so fascinating to experience this all.
I appreciate your support! Sending you good vibes!
While last week was a lot of fun, I feel like I could have gotten more done. Creating content and streaming takes a lot of time, but especially during my streaming hours, I feel like I can get a lot more work done.
When watching my footage back, I noticed that I was freewheeling around too much after designing and setting up the project.
This morning I decided to clean the kanban board, which you can view here, and merge todos into EPICS (I guess). This means that I now split the project up into a couple of more significant milestones, consisting of multiple smaller todos, which makes it easier for me to make progress on the application by tackling one of these big tasks one at a time.
After working with this system today, I can say that it already feels like I am making way more progress. Even if I am stuck on something, I can work on another todo from the list. This is great since now I don't feel bad anymore for leaving something for the next day, since I can still show you guys some progress!
My god, this was a pain in the ass to implement. I took some time before the stream today (sorry) to dig into the documentation of SWR and figure out why I couldn't get it set up the way I wanted it to.
