It's me developing my first SaaS

Hey, Mattia here 👋

I procrastinated my dream life for six years while working as a marketing freelancer.

Now I'm building a sustainable and genuine business without being salesy or using hacks—just a lot of learnings and a big smile.

The Maker Journey lifts the curtains of this pathless path where I share behind me every step of the way.

Every other Thursday, I send a 3-minute email to inspire your indie adventure.

No pushy, no spam. I hate it as much as you do.

Whenever I see someone sharing their burnout story, I think they're providing an invaluable service to everyone in the same situation.

I really like @heymattia recent post about build for an audience of 1 (yourself). If you are solving your own problems, you are going to be motivated.
