The Profitable Side Project Handbook

Published on March 22nd, 2014 by Eric L. Barnes

Rachel Andrew has a new book out about creating profitable side projects.

She has the first chapter available to read online and this book is packed with great ideas and best practices.

The main reason I wanted to share this book here is because if you are like me then you are always thinking of the next great app. Running a successful side project is less about the code and more about business.

Rachel has shown her level of knowledge and passion from creating and selling Perch. Which, by the way, is a great little CMS. If you want to go down this same road then gaining advice from someone that has been there and done that is an invaluable asset.
