A little reflection on hitting a milestone birthday. #life #mindfulness justinferriman.com/40

I'm 40. 🫣

Last day being in my 30s. I don't know how I feel about this.

Your purchase confirmation / welcome email after purchase should have an upsell. It's the most opened email of any business. #WordPress #startups #entrepreneurship

How is the #BuildInPublic and #Startup crowd here on Bluesky? Twitter was always good for this, but does it also exist here?

How can you help someone else make money today? Do that, and you'll have a network willing to help you. #WordPress #startups #entrepreneurship

Remembering in the first years of LearnDash how I would get onto Skype to help people who wanted a refund instead of just giving them their money back (I refused to issue them lol) Yeah, that policy eventually changed. πŸ˜… #WordPress

Billionaires should never become politicians. Politicians should never become billionaires. #politics

Not drinking coffee anymore. I miss the ritual, but having zero dependency on Caffeine for energy in my life feels pretty damn good.

Just saw that a somewhat popular #WordPress YouTuber has channels in different languages covering the same topics. Looks like he hired someone to do voiceovers on his main video. A lot of subscribers for each language. Smart. Something to be learned here.

I have sympathy for the folks who stayed at Automattic, but are not in agreement with the way Matt is handling things. If you have a family, then just quitting your job isn't going to be the responsible thing to do. #WordPress

4 hour "arrival windows" for contractors are antiquated. Decrease that to 2, and you have my business.

You can always judge a service by how they handle sales. If they aren't helpful when trying to win you over, they'll be terrible when they have your money.

I coach several very successful companies from Nepal, India, and that part of the world. One issue they continually face: their talent is consistently poached by companies that you've heard of in the #WordPress space. Gross behavior IMO.

What motivates you? Me? Anything that gives me personal freedom. It's why I started LearnDash to begin with. Not for money, but for the freedom to creatively express & compete. Financial gains were just he byproduct of relentlessly pursuing that passion every-single-day. #WordPress

You're only as good as your last update. #WordPress #entrepreneurship

Turned off the #SuperBowl pre-game show, as it just consists of a bunch of guys rehashing their past playing days from 30+ years ago. πŸ™„

Recently, my nephews talked me through today's slang words... Instantly made me hate YT (as most of their expressions come from popular content creators).

I dont' know what it is, but when I meet people from MI in CA... I feel an instant connection. Like... we know. We just know. 🀝

This blew my mind, so wanted to share the story about how my wife overcame her Graves' Disease (a thyroid condition) by adjusting her diet. No meds. No surgeries. Just food. #health #food

Exploring teaching business/entrepreneurship in academia... more to come! πŸ‘¨β€πŸŽ“

Public roadmap for your #WordPress plugin... Yay or Nay?

Legislation in the US and Canada requires any government funded entity to have an accessible website. But even if you're not in that space, you should make a point to meet those standards. AAArdvark is a great tool (audits and software) to help! https://buff.ly/4fDQgFk #a11y #WordPress

Which social network do you use the most in a day?

Another day... what can you do from a marketing standpoint? Always-be-marketing. πŸ‘ #entrepreneurship #buildinpublic

So, January felt like 2 months combined. πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«
