The Unfair Advantage of Speed

Hey Starterpreneurs,

Perfect is the enemy of profitable. This week, we're talking about why shipping fast beats planning forever—and how to build a business that moves at startup speed, even if you're solo.

Tool of the Week Notion AI — Turn messy brain dumps into polished outlines, meeting notes into action items, and ideas into structured project plans. It's like having a second brain that actually organizes things. $10/month on top of Notion.

Book Suggestion The Lean Startup by Eric Ries — Build, measure, learn, repeat. This book teaches you how to validate ideas without betting the farm. The MVPs you ship in weeks beat the "perfect products" that never launch.

Marketing Strategy / Tactic The 48-Hour Product Launch:

• Day 1 morning: announce the idea and ask for feedback

• Day 1 afternoon: build the simplest version that solves the problem

• Day 2 morning: price it and create a basic landing page

• Day 2 afternoon: launch to your audience

• Bonus: pre-selling before you build = guaranteed demand

Business Opportunity of the Week No-Code MVP Development Service — Help non-technical founders build their first product using Bubble, Webflow, or Airtable. Package it as "$2,500 for your working prototype in 2 weeks." Target: aspiring SaaS founders stuck in planning mode.

Speed is a competitive advantage most people give away for free. Don't be most people.

Got a friend overthinking their launch? Send them this. Next week: how to sell before you build.
