Noah Kagan texted me, haters, broken boards.

A quick solopreneur update for June

30,000 feet in the air. Brad Strut in my ears.

Hey, it’s Marc.

I’ve completed about 50% of that big bet. The weekly newsletter will be back soon. Until then, I’ll send a short solopreneur update sometime.

I’m traveling back to my homeland. 20 hours in airplanes should be enough for a few words.

In June, Noah Kagan WhatsApp’ed me. We did a podcast.

The video should be out in 6 weeks!

Seriously it’s crazy. Nobody cared about my work for 5 years (apart from my wife). Sometimes, I think I don’t deserve all this exposure.

With the recent growth came a few haters.

I’m negativy-averse. I don’t know how to react, so I am spending less time on Twitter right now. My friend Dan says I’m a Labrador.

Instead, I surf more often and broke 2 boards. I also added 2km of barefoot running to my daily routine.

I love working out. It quiets the mind.

Business videos aren’t fun — I want to change that. I’ll add a lifestyle dimension to all my new videos. This one was my first experiment.

I hope you’re shipping. Take care.
