Comment How To Make Money Online

Zero to $5000 MRR in 19 Months

  • $5000 monthly recurring revenue

Kyle Nolan writes about his experience building ProjectionLab to $5000 in monthly recurring revenue 💰

ProjectionLab is a financial projection app that helps you “simulate your financial future and chart a course toward your best life.”

Kyle recommends having modest aspirations when building this kind of business, and celebrating small wins to keep yourself sane along the way.

I’ve devoted nights and weekends to building PL as a side project for over a year and a half now, and bootstrapping a full-featured personal finance simulator as a solo developer has been a lot to take on.

He’s apparently managed to avoid burnout during that time mainly thanks to exercise…

We all live in brain-body systems, and we can’t expect peak performance from the mind without also taking care of the body… 

So for any of you who are contemplating skipping that workout again today so you can keep banging your head against a problem you’re stuck on… personally, I would recommend the workout 😉

And hey, simply taking a long walk counts as a workout in my book. Make sure you’re doing at least that a few times a week.
