The Making of a Million Dollar Weekend

Noah Kagan
About this episode

Today the roles reverse as Jon Youshaei takes the interviewer's chair to get the scoop on Noah Kagan's new book, 'Million Dollar Weekend.' 

 

We explore the main goals in crafting the book and devising a marketing plan, including the audacious aim of 1000 reviews on launch and how we built a launch Beta team.

In this conversation, you’ll enjoy 3 BIG things: 

  • Find a Worthy Market: How to evaluate market trends and identify opportunities for sustainable growth. 

  • Simplicity Wins: The power of simplicity by focusing on a single goal—like reaching 1000 reviews.

  • The Survey Method: Exploring the value of live engagement, and how to test and iterate based on feedback.

 

If you enjoyed this and want to hear more behind the scenes of Million Dollar Weekend, go back and listen to last week's episode with Mackenzie (a beta reader of the book), she talks about using the lessons learned in creating her $50,000 a year Greeting Cards business. That’s episode 338 in this feed.
