MVP: Gumroad Me

[pingortle]

MVP Jobs

As a gumroad consumer, I need to make a list of gumroad products I'd like to own

Dream outcome

Why do I want this?

• I want people to buy the products for me
• I want to remember to buy it for myself later
• I want to send people a wishlist

Why now?

• Christmas/Birthday is coming up
• I can't afford it yet, but I will at XYZ date
• I don't need it right now, but I will soon

Risk/Likelihood of outcome

What am I risking?

• "I'll spend time on this and never get used"
• "It will be too hard for my grandpa to buy me my ebook"

How do I know this works?

• Who else has used this successfully?

Latency

When do I get my results?

• You get the benefit of brain dump immediately
• You just copy/paste the gumroad URL
• (Extension? Frame?) You get a button to add to wishlist on gumroad

Effort/Sacrifice

How much time do I need to spend?

• Seconds per product

What skills do I need to learn?

• Pointing and clicking
• Maybe installing an extension

What knowledge do I need to learn?

• How to make an account (auth with gumroad?)
• How to manage my wishlist

What decisions will I need to make?

• What things go into my wishlist?
