ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
Every week on My First Dollar, one expert breaks down one specific playbook for making your first dollar online.
Same focus every time: take something that actually worked and explain it clearly enough that someone with $0 and a laptop could start today. The exact steps with the real numbers.
Past guests have covered a MacBook-slapping app that made $44K in 60 days, an app portfolio doing $1M a year, cold email that lands paying customers, and SEO that compounds over time. If you're a founder trying to get to that first dollar, you're in the right place.
