This covers the non-code side of running an indie app business: interpreting your App Store Connect metrics to figure out what's broken, pitching journalists and YouTubers for coverage, building a community on Twitter or Discord, and handling the boring stuff like LLCs and taxes. It's split into four sub-skills that match different growth stages, from pre-launch press kits to cohort analysis when you've got real traction. The analytics interpretation part is especially useful because it includes decision trees for what to fix when your retention or monetization numbers look wrong. If you're solo and need to wear the marketing hat, this gives you templates and workflows instead of vague advice.
