Starting a new ad campaign for Kope Soundscapes: Rest & Focus, while working on new things at the same time.

My Meta Ad experience this far has been one of learning the ropes more than anything else.

Thousands of clicks, tens of downloads and single digit purchases.

My technique: Tilt forward and move my legs in order to not fall. Continue until done.

(Watch app stopped mid-run for some reason. Actual distance: 10k. Based on time leaving and arriving, total time was ~58 minutes)

Yesterday brought with it some news to process. Nothing catastrophic, but I slept poorly.

Today, I’ve deliberately spent just processing things. Reflecting.

Autumn walk, somewhat chilly out, gray. Not bad at all. It’ll be OK.

Tomorrow, it’s back to working again.

Running a small business has had one upside so far:

Economic uncertainty, isolation and the often underwhelming outcome aside, I no longer hate Sundays or dread Mondays.

This is what work should feel like.

This week has been a learning experience.

Launched an app on Monday, first attempt at marketing on Tuesday, and working on next steps now.

The current funnel:
15k reel views > 350 clicks > 15+ downloads > 2 purchases

(App Store download stats are ~2 days delayed)

Finally, I'm live on App Store.

Kope is my second iOS app ever. I'm loving the work and the process. Improved UX, design and quality (🤞) with every project.

New for this one:
StoreKit
iCloudKit

Building apps is probably the greatest sense of flow and joy I get lately. Especially when I have enough peace of mind to focus on the process, and that it’s also about learning and incremental improvement.

Next: Get my iOS app - Kope Soundscapes - ready for review.
