| 6/17/26 | ![]() 94: Shot Pattern — Eric Duffett | On the podcast: Eric Duffett shares how he built Shot Pattern — a golf GPS app that brings "moneyball" thinking to the course — as a side project while teaching high school full-time. He talks about his first failed app, why automating an existing community workflow created instant product-market fit, turning down a 75K acquisition offer, cracking Meta ads with a scrappy zero-budget screen recording, and growing to one million dollars in total sales without ever leaving the classroom.Top Takeaways:⛳ Find people already doing it the hard way If a community is solving a problem with spreadsheets, Google Maps, or shared workarounds, you don't need to convince them they have a problem — you just need to make the solution easier.🚫 Don't rebuild your entire app for one person's feedback Overweighting the first piece of feedback you get, especially when it requires a massive pivot like adding a new platform, is one of the most common traps for first-time developers.📉 Intellectually knowing and emotionally knowing are different things You can predict a seasonal downturn or a slow period, but the anxiety of watching revenue drop to zero still hits differently when you're living through it.🎬 Market before you build The difference between a hobby that nobody finds and a business that grows from day one can be as simple as sharing screenshots and talking about what you're making while you're still making it.💸 Your LTV has to work before you spend a dollar on ads Paid acquisition only becomes a money printer when your conversion and retention numbers are already strong from organic users — otherwise you're just paying to lose money faster.🎥 The scrappy creative wins A raw, unpolished screen recording made by the founder can outperform expensive influencer content because it speaks directly to the audience in their own language.🏋️ Grit without product-market fit is just suffering Resilience is a necessary skill, but grinding on something nobody wants for years doesn't make you a better entrepreneur — it just delays the moment you find the thing that actually works.About Eric Duffet:🚀 Indie Developer and creator of Shot Pattern, a specialized golf GPS and course management app designed to help golfers lower their scores by visualizing their personal "shot cone" directly over satellite maps of the golf course👋 LinkedIn🌐 Learn more about Shot PatternEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Introduction to Shot Pattern: “Moneyball for golf”[02:14] Eric’s background: teaching, finance, and early app development[03:40] Golf experience and coaching background[05:58] First app: meditation for athletes and lessons learned[10:47] Rookie mistakes: Android pivot and early marketing missteps[13:08] Design insights from working with UI/UX students[17:00] Understanding product-market fit through a simple school app[20:07] Starting Shot Pattern as a personal side project[21:46] Early app features: measuring arcs and dispersion on Apple Maps[25:17] Early marketing and organic growth via Twitter[29:35] Investing in golf course data to enhance the app[33:04] Prototype simulations and early community feedback[35:10] Declining $75K acquisition offer to continue independently[38:14] Facing seasonal slowdowns and sustaining motivation[42:04] Running Meta ads and achieving high LTV[46:50] Effective ad creative targeting the right golfers[49:58] Balancing development, business, and family[56:32] Hiring a contractor for marketing and operational support[01:00:23] Future plans: delivering more value through analytics and AI reports[01:02:31] Competition and validation in the golf app space | 1h 10m 01s | ||||||

| 12/3/25 | ![]() 80: Shotsy – Aja Beckett | On the podcast, I talk to Aja Beckett about the challenges of building for the community you belong to, the power of organic growth, the user feedback that helped shape the app, and the support gap for GLP-1 users.Top Takeaways: 🛠️ Build with Authenticity Aja’s journey from social anxiety to a GLP-1 tracking app started with solving her own problem. By deeply understanding her community's pain points, she created a product that resonates with real users, not just the market.📈 Community-Driven Growth Rather than relying on paid ads, Aja grew the app through organic word of mouth. The GLP-1 medication subreddit became a launchpad, with users eager to share and promote the app. This grassroots, authentic growth drove both engagement and loyalty.📊 Focus on Data-Driven Insights Aja's app uses data visualization to help users track their medication journey, creating a tangible, shareable experience. By making health tracking both personal and visual, users are motivated to share their progress, which amplifies the app's visibility.📲 Lean Into What Works Aja learned the importance of App Store Optimization (ASO). By focusing on search terms like "GLP-1 tracker," the app naturally found its audience. It’s a clear reminder that effective product discovery often comes from aligning with what people are already searching for.💡 Start Small, Think BigAja pivoted from a small, personal project to a scalable business by expanding her team when needed. Whether it's through funding or hiring the right talent, knowing when to take the leap and grow is key to maintaining momentum in a fast-moving space.⚖️ Balance Profit with PurposeWhen raising funds, Aja ensured her investors shared the same vision of prioritizing user needs over short-term profits. Building a sustainable business model centered on real value for users, while avoiding a "cash grab" mentality, allowed her to stay true to the mission.About Aja Beckett: 🛫 Founder of Shotsy 📱 Aja Beckett created Shotsy, the go-to mobile app for GLP-1 medication tracking. She turned her personal health journey into a product loved by thousands, focusing on authenticity, user-first design, and a mission to empower people on similar paths.👋LinkedIn Follow us on X: Charlie Chapman - @_chuckycRevenueCat - @RevenueCatLaunched - @LaunchedFM Episode Highlights: [0:00] The elevator pitch: tracking GLP-1 treatment with Shotsy[1:26] From film and animation to a self-taught developer[4:49] The painful shutdown of a promising moderation platform[6:02] Learning to code out of necessity at TED[10:05] Shutting down a startup and painting over the logo[12:18] Why mobile apps became the best way forward[18:03] Shifting from language learning to citizenship prep to health[23:45] Solving her own GLP-1 tracking needs with data[32:35] Beta launch insights: side effects, customization, and community[36:59] Keeping core features free for a mission-driven business model[47:35] How staying user-first helps Shotsy avoid paid ads[58:26] Fundraising to compete with copycats and stay true to the mission | 1h 11m 13s | ||||||
| 11/19/25 | ![]() 79: Flighty – Ryan Jones | On the podcast, we talk with Ryan Jones about the power of product-driven growth, why traditional marketing strategies often fall short, and the challenges of acquiring users while staying focused on building great products. Top Takeaways: ✈️ Product is the growth engine Flighty doesn’t run ads or chase growth hacks. Instead, it builds features that users love enough to share. When the product delights, users do the marketing. Growth follows craft.📲 Design for shareability Virality isn’t an accident. Flighty’s most powerful loop came from obsessing over a digital flight log that people are proud to show off, building for moments users want to share, and driving organic reach without paid spend.🛠️ Stick to your superpowerTry traditional growth tactics, then walk away. Every time the team moved attention from product to marketing, growth stalled. Knowing your edge (and staying there) beats chasing trends outside your zone.📈 ASO over adsApp Store Optimization remains Flighty’s only paid channel. Beautiful screenshots, clear messaging, and owning key search terms outperform broad ad campaigns and let the product speak for itself.📵 Say no to distraction Ignore the conventional playbook: no Facebook ads, no paid UA, no spray-and-pray marketing. Flighty’s team builds what they’d want to use, stays close to user problems, and lets clarity guide the roadmap.About Ryan Jones: 🛫 CEO & Co-founder of Flighty.📱 Ryan leads the product, design, and growth strategy behind Flighty. It is one of the most loved travel apps in the world. He’s built Flighty into a top-ranked app through obsessive attention to detail, viral feature design, and user-first thinking.💡 “Every time we focused on product, we grew. Every time we chased marketing tactics, we stalled. We just keep building what users love—and they do the rest.”👋 LinkedInFollow us on X: Charlie Chapman - @_chuckycRevenueCat - @RevenueCatLaunched - @LaunchedFM Episode Highlights: [0:00] The elevator pitch: giving flyers real-time confidence[2:14] How Flighty’s digital passport became a viral growth engine[4:37] The unexpected power users: pilots, flight attendants, and crew[5:48] Why building product beats running ads (and how Flighty proved it)[10:03] Designing frictionless sharing for one-to-one and one-to-many moments[10:49] From failed “Spotify Wrapped” to viral success: the passport playbook[14:29] Why screenshots are Flighty’s most underrated growth lever[15:12] Owning App Store search: inside Flighty’s ASO strategy[17:51] How Flighty landed in Apple keynotes and why it matters less[19:58] Building for the dynamic island before users knew they wanted it[21:22] What’s next: exclusive features, new foundations, and staying ahead of copycats | 24m 32s | ||||||
