What I completed this week (link to last week’s commitments):

• Read Growth Levers and How to Find Them, a framework book about finding the right strategy to acquire customers by Matt Lerner
• Attended Newsletter Marketing Summit
• With the help of my developer friend, finished the first version of the software; although it ran locally on his computer, we couldn’t get it to run on mine, so I couldn’t demo it at the conference
• Finalized descriptions of all the books I’ve read so far and updated them on this blog
• Published my 2024 Reading List page on my blog; see here
• Published a searchable library of all the books I’ve read, which I’ll update weekly; see here
• Published a book profile page for each book I’ve read showing the connections between books, blog posts, and more; see here
• Showed the pages on my blog to several people at the conference and got feedback
• Pitched the software idea to roughly twenty people and obtained contact information of five people interested in seeing the software

What I’ll do next week:

• Read a biography, autobiography, or framework book
• Conference follow-up
• Make it possible for software to be hosted in the cloud instead of locally

Asks:

• None

Week two hundred fifty-seven was another week of learning. Looking forward to next week!
