Do you constantly wonder how to best market your start-up!? Rand Fishkin, best known as Moz founder and current co-founder and CEO of SparkToro and Inbound.org, joins Finola this week to discuss each step of the start-up journey and scaling for success. Rand's professional life is dedicated to helping others excel and market to their best ability through his writing, videos and speaker sessions. In this discussion, Rand delves into his journey from failure to success. We learn how Rand was ejected from the company he passionately founded and built and how it was a harsh reality. Rand also lifts the blanket from the mental and emotional struggles in business and shares how every company has a unique story to tell and that technology should be digestible and understandable for all. Further key points throughout include: An introduction to Rand Fishkin Bringing humanity and technology together The journey of an early-stage founder The leap from a side project to a successful business The benefits and drawbacks of business transparency The harrowing sadness of bidding farewell to Moz Navigating through a founder's dilemma The entrepreneur culture: The concept of learning through failure Service business VS product business The risks of launching an MVP The rise of SparkToro: audience research at your fingertips The future of marketing and the impact of GDPR Rand's advice for aspiring entrepreneurs "Execution is something where you can start low, but if your idea is great, you will be carried forward on the strength of that idea. However, you start with a bad idea, and you could get great at execution, and still not end up anywhere." – Rand Fishkin.

We talk with Derrick Reimer about his product SavvyCal. He used Elixir as a solo dev to create a service that can take on an 800lb gorilla like Calendly. He shares what competitive advantages he feels he has both from Elixir but also in being more nimble. We also talk about creating a company as an independent, solo developer and how that can work. Derrick shares some tips and resources that were helpful for him on his journey. We feel the PETAL stack positions Elixir developers well for optionally taking that Indie path if desired. Check it out! Lots of nuggets here!

We are picking right back with Mark and Ben's interview with Matthew Barnett on this episode of The Friday Habit. Matthew continues to expand on his vision for customer service, being accessible and hospitable to every customer (or potential customer) who contacts your team. His approach is data-driven, recognizing that satisfied customers come back and buy more or new products and they also recommend your products or services to others. A great next step in improving your customer experience is visually mapping out their journey with you, taking note of the touchpoints, typical conversion points, and any gaps that you could look into filling. You can also reach out to advocates of yours or loyal customers for their feedback on the customer experience. Matthew recognizes that many people are hesitant or unsure about starting a business because of the unknowns, but he says that the best way to get into the market is just to do it. Start a website, post a few products, and see what happens. If you have a good idea, you will know pretty quickly based on the demand, but if you don't attract customers after a little while, you might need to have an honest conversation with yourself about the feasibility of the type of company you want to have. You might need to take a step back and offer people what they really want or need as a milestone along the path to where you eventually want to end up. Finally, Matthew emphasizes the importance of setting up a culture and having scheduled team meeting, especially for global teams. Outside of work, he tries to read a book per week and he is a part of a founders group that serves as a mastermind of sorts, which is a great resource and source of accountability for him and the other members.Links:https://www.bonjoro.com/videofunnelplaybook “The Lost and Founder”: https://www.amazon.com/Lost-Founder-Painfully-Honest-Startup/dp/0735213321 “The Hard Thing About Hard Things”: https://www.amazon.com/Hard-Thing-About-Things-Building/dp/0062273205“Traction”: https://www.amazon.com/Traction-Get-Grip-Your-Business/dp/1936661837 “Viral Loop”: https://www.amazon.com/Viral-Loop-Facebook-Businesses-Themselves/dp/1401323499 Connect with Matthew:https://www.verbate.com/https://www.bonjoro.com/https://au.linkedin.com/in/mbjbarnettConnect with us:https://www.thefridayhabit.com/thefridayhabit@knapsackcreative.com https://www.instagram.com/benjaminmanleyhttp://www.benjaminmanley.com/https://www.brandvivamedia.com/https://www.facebook.com/Marklab2https://www.linkedin.com/in/marklab2/
