It is very easy for a solo-programmer and solo-founder to get overwhelmed or side-tracked when developing a software product/business, such as a WordPress plugin or a micro-Saas (Software as a Service). In this episode we will looking at a planning technique called backward planning or reverse planning. I originally learned it from a professional business coach many years ago, and it really gave me some “aha” moments. I will be giving you some concepts, with real-world examples how it has helped me with my side-hustle projects, such as wpPluginCollege.com.
Even the best laid plans can sometimes unravel. Everyone who has ever created a software product or business has gotten “stuck”. I have a segment of coaching where I give you strategies to get yourself focused on what is really important. Remember, done is better than perfect. You can do it! Enjoy.

Below is the audio podcast version of this show:
We are exploring what it means to be a creative solo-programmer / solo-founder, and how to harness the power of WordPress by developing our own custom plugins. Plugins can be stand-alone products, all the way to the core of a micro SaaS, WaaS, or even XaaS bootstrapped business. Along the way we will learn how to code in PHP, JavaScript, and leverage the cool functions and hooks and libraries that come with the WordPress framework. The potential for creating new experiences and value for users is limited only by our creativity. Hosted by Jamie Robe, solo-founder of PluggedIntoProgramming.com
