What is Build Profit for Engineers?

  • Build Profit for Engineers is a newsletter about building profit from your products.

  • It’s created by the team behind Build Profit, the build profit OS for engineers.

  • Build Profit for Engineers is free and always will be.

Why Build Profit for Engineers?

Because we’re engineers. Engineers who have been there and done that. We’ve built products from zero users to exit and have overcome many challenges along the way.

The problem with building profit is there’s so many things to do and they can be hard. As software engineers we can easily default to what’s easy (writing code) and not spend enough time on building profit.

How is profit built? It’s by carefully navigating through the following

  • Product strategy.

  • Product marketing.

  • Product growth.

Not spending enough time in the above areas can mean revenue and customers will grow slower than they would otherwise.

What if I already have a product?

Then great. You’re already on your way - but I bet you’d like more customers and more revenue. You can apply the principles from this newsletter to new features of your existing product too.
