We’re ~17k MRR right now. Being doing it for almost 2 years.

What made us take off is I and my cofounder running through our savings. I did it for ~15 months.

One thing I had to start doing earlier is not trying to get everyone buy our product (we sell news articles published online as a source of data for insight mining) [0]

I’ve lost so much time on people who’d never be able to use what we have unless we completely change our product.

And yeah, marketing is super important. And, it’s going to take some time.
