I hope that you all had a great one 🤩 As you know I’m going through difficult times… Writing helps me a lot to clarify what I want, what I think, and what I feel. I’ve always used writing to help me go through crises, and it has always been invaluable. I’m currently using most of my energy to take care of myself, find a new place to live, revisit my personal budget and discuss practical details. For this reason, this edition will be much shorter than usual. I’ll focus on sharing cool stuff I’ve stumbled upon this week. The Lab 🧪 This week, I’ve decided to lower the price of the [PKM Library](https://www.store.dsebastien.net//product/pkm-library). As I’ve said earlier, I wanted to raise the price until sales dropped. And they did, so now I know the ideal price for this product. Since I’ve lowered the price, sales have started flowing again, which is quite cool. I think that this is a great approach to selling info products: use tiered pricing and raise the price until sales drop. Then lower it a bit. This is an exploratory approach and seems to work a treat. LINK: https://www.store.dsebastien.net//product/pkm-library The PKM Library is one of my most successful small bets so far. Now I’ve got to amplify what works. My other success of the week is that I now have > 1K followers on Medium. This is great because it means that whenever I publish something new, I can get it in front of many eyeballs, increasing my chances of success 🎉 ## Things I've learned this week ![[2022-04-04-developassions-newsletter-data-hoarder - new notes.png]] Some of the things I've learned this month ## Recent articles LINK: [[25+ Years of Personal Knowledge Management.
