$10k/Month Productivity Timer

Web developer Philip Young started building this Pomodoro app in mid-2020, and recently announced that it’s earning him $10,000 per month in profit 😎

He did an AMA and interview a few months back.

What stands out most to me is how Philip has succeeded as a solo developer in a crowded market. There are tons of other Pomodoro apps available, but Philip didn’t like any of them, so he decided to scratch his own itch.

Sales were slow at first, but took off once he launched on ProductHunt 🚀

Now his sales are split about 50/50 between the Apple App Store and SetApp (“basically Netflix, but for Mac and iOS apps”).
