Why I Build in Public
By Nathan "n8" Watkins
Sharing the messy middle beats polishing in private.
#audience#momentum
Building in public is uncomfortable, and that is exactly why it works. You trade a little ego for a lot of momentum.
The trade
- You get feedback before you have over-invested.
- You build an audience while you build the product.
- You stay accountable to a public cadence.
The cost is vanity. The payoff is speed and signal. Easy trade.
