Speaking of the offline side of business… I recently got my first set of business cards printed; And I’ve already passed out quite a few of them around town. So far, I’ve had positive reactions from those who have shown an interest in what I am doing and planning.
And, apart from the obvious benefits of beginning to get my name out and about in my local area, there is something to be said for having a physical item that can be picked up and held. Also, the act of actually spending money on something helped me to stop and consider how serious I am in this.
Somehow it confirms that this Micro-ISV thing is real - that it’s not just a business name, number and website. This is real! This is the next chapter of my career and life. I am really doing this.
It has reignited my enthusiasm and excitement levels!
So my recommendation is, if you too are starting a Micro-ISV and are serious about it (eventually) being a full-time gig, get some professional business cards printed and start talking about your ISV with the people around you that are interested. You may just be surprised at how much that can enthuse and motivate you.
