Succinct and powerful, especially so if you're ready to roll up your sleeves and do the work. Designers, makers and entrepreneurs, this is the ratchet and blueprint you've been hunting for.
I'll admit I signed up to this when it was free, but got so much value out of it I would happily pay thousands if this came from a business coach. Just working my way through How to Visualize Value and Build Once, Sell Twice — all I can say is @jackbutcher delivers.
It wouldn't surprise me if Permissionless Apprentice is responsible for spawning an entire crop of future Product Hunt success stories.
@leovvolff thank you Leo! Very glad it resonated and hoping your prediction is spot on.
I paid for The Permissionless Apprentice as soon as it was released.
It flipped the the way I think about my approach to all relationships.
Since its release many TPA students have flipped from twiddling their thumbs waiting on the sidelines to walking the red carpet with their heros. This is a metaphor :)
You will get it for far less than I paid.
I am so happy @jackbutcher is releasing his baby for (almost) free to change as many minds that are open to the flip.
An excellent example of execution by @piercejkearns

@jackbutcher @piercejkearns @sach_holden1 Thanks for linking @piercejkearns's product Sach.
I love your metaphor! I see the whole VV community getting more and more elevation as time goes on, Jack really does have something special with his courses. (The power of less + simplicity.)
I think this interview with @david_perell highlighted how difficult his approach is: https://youtu.be/8wzkvTaskXk
Takes so much time and thought to make just 1 quote simple. Truly appreciative of the effort! 🔥
I took this course and loved it. I had never seen this taught anywhere before and it's so very clever.

@kasia_manolas I'd love to hear if there was any case study/lesson that stuck out to you!
I just mentioned in another comment that the case study of @uxblake and a website/UI review practice he had w/o asking for permission. It really stuck with me and encouraged me that anything is possible without additional equipment.
Hunter
@emmy_sobieski I think I remember reacting to your posts on the old VV Slack! Great to see you here, and great to see you launched an app for 10MinHealth! 🎉
And wow! Moved into Web3, excited to see what's next, I subscribed to your Newsletter to try to keep up. 📨

@shivam_jha3 As another $100 club member, I'm curious what you remember/learned from the first time through? (I've been judging book/course value by what I remember 6 months later, which is why I'm curious.)
Something that stuck with me is the website review that @uxblake did in the case studies. I realised how powerful someone can be with a mic, a camera, and a computer. No edits needed! 🔋
@jamesskon i'd got it for a friend who was looking for a job at the time. i came across Jack in a twitter thread and i thought it was the right approach to lead with proof of work and portfolio. These were exactly what my friend was missing.
i mostly consume Jack's content on YT and twitter. I find it hard to sit down and finish a course but i think i'll skim through the course today, synthesize and share my key takeaways on twitter. permissionless -ly :')

|e?| "Really? They're trying to sell me on another product already?"

the lack of line breaks broke the review - alas! you can find a screenshot of how it should have looked in the replies on Jack Butcher's tweeter.
that aside, the fact that I spent ~1 hour on that review should tell you all you need to know.
also, it's $1 - and the most memorable dollar I've ever spent.
solid call on shifting from free to $1 for this stellar product, Jack.
Jack Butcher and Visualize Value have given me an insight into living a better, simpler, cleaner lifestyle - in all realms. Permissionless Apprentice opened my mind to opportunities sitting right in front of me that I had not yet seen. For $1, this course is a no-brainer.
Furthermore, his free "Daily Manifest", the Archivve at https://archivve.visualizevalue.com , and social channels continue to impact my well being on a daily basis. If you haven't already, dive into those areas as well. It will be worth it.
Bravo, yet again, Jack. I can't wait to dive into Build Once, Sell Twice, and other courses by you!

@mark_gray2 Awesome to hear Mark, I feel the same, but you've described it more elegantly than I could ever hope to. 🙇🏼♂️
I'm curious if there was any specific lesson or case study that stood out to you? I'm trying to collect some perspectives other than my own to see what I missed.
Build Once, Sell Twice was also amazing! I hope you enjoy it. The 'Productize' concept is insane. Clearly spelled out and unforgettable.
@mark_gray2 thank you for taking the time to write this Mark, truly appreciated
