Hello folks!
It's time for another batch of bootstrapping news and resources. I hope you're all good and ready to bookmark .
CRM and Email Automation for half the price
I just (secretely) launched Wobaka Professional which gives you access to all features, including email sequences, for a single user to half the price! Try it for free without credit card .
This week's links

Build Half a Product, Not a Half-Assed Project
DHH and Jason Fried talks about building the first version of Basecamp and Hey as well as the difference between half a product and a half-assed product.

Start at the Epicenter
Another podcast with DHH and Jason Fried now talking about starting with the epicenter when building products. They also talk about how you find the epicenter and why some founders may be hesistant doing it because it may reveal some uneasy truths about your product.

Should we always charge more?
Great post from 2019 by Justin Jackson on famous "Always charge more" advice.

Asking for CC upfront is the kiss of death for the majority of IH type businesses
Good points on the never ending debate on credit card vs no credit card for trial sign ups. For B2B products I've recently change my mind and have removed cc requirement on Wobaka. Biggest reason is that some users may not have direct access to company credit cards which causes friction.
That's it for the week! Enjoy and have a great day!
