July Summary

Another great month. My apps and my revenue grew again.

I’ve made $3.2k from mobile sales and $2.4k from ads.

Social Media & Subscribers

• 🐦 Twitter following: 6.2k (+1.2k)
• 📨 Newsletter subscribers: 429

I was lucky though, because my competitor was briefly removed from the app store which gave me a huge download and revenue boost (almost doubled).

This lasted only a few days, but it gave me great insights into how much difference in traffic you get between #1 and #2 positions.

Other than that, I didn’t do much. Most of the time I took the time off and enjoyed the well-deserved vacation.

I have to say it feels amazing to see revenue coming even when I rest and do nothing.

Work-life balance and freedom to do anything with my time was my ultimate goal (right after reaching ramen profitability) and it feels surreal to achieve it.

Although I have to say that after a few weeks of resting, I’m recharged and excited to get back to work 😎
