It’s been a while since my last post! Since then, I’ve been focusing on growing Remote Rocketship. I’m super excited to announce that it’s reached $2,000 MRR! 🥳 You may recall from the last post that I mentioned that the only sustainable channel to grow the website is SEO and that I was learning how to do it from scratch (and it’s now getting 19,000 monthly search clicks!). In this post, I want to share everything I’ve learned about SEO and how to approach it. In doing so, I hope you’ll also share your tips and help me fill in any gaps in my knowledge!

In my last post, I talked about how I going about searching for a new idea to work on. I’ve now landed on Remote Rocketship, a job board for remote roles. In this post, I’ll talk about how I got there, what I’ve been up to and how I’m thinking about moving forward.

I’ve been searching for new startup ideas and problem areas to tackle. It’s quite difficult to do, especially when you begin adding constraints to the criteria such as “Am I excited about this problem space?”. The internet is filled with helpful ways to come up with startup ideas and below is the summary of what I’ve learned on the topic during the last few months.

Over the last month, I’ve been exploring a new idea in the cold outbound sales space. The idea is to generate personalized cold emails at scale using AI. Currently, there is a trade-off between quantity and quality when it comes to sending cold emails: Either you spend lots of time researching a prospect and crafting a personalized email, or you send generic emails in bulk to a large group of people. Naturally, the response rate for personalized emails is much higher than the generic ones, so I’ve been looking into how to do this at scale.
