I'm seriously flabbergasted by the constant interruptions while the guest was in the midst of sharing insightful thoughts. The interviewers' tendency to interject and divert the conversation was not only frustrating but truly did a disservice to the guest, who clearly had so much more to offer. Interrupting is often considered one of the top rookie mistakes in podcast interviewing. Just some feedback I'd like to share; still wish you guys the best.
Pieter Levels is like from another planet for these guys. - Interviewer: ...Money.... Revenue... Growth. - Pieter: Truth... lifestyle... friends... family.
you just not smart enough to understand, he doesnt try to be "honest", he wants to brag about his salary, and he use "honestly" as the reason to brag, otherwise it would look bad. He is addicted to attention, otherwise he wouldn't brag all day about his salary and servers expenses. Basically this is a guy who build really nothing+nothing, running after current fashions, and never get really deep into anything. Yea he makes money because he did one digital nomad project that brought him so much hype in which he uses to get more people to other useless projects, but as you know this effect will not keep forever.
@@justellythelegend i sold a startup for more than what he makes, i just dont brag about it online every second. Grow up you indie hackers or whatever fashionable name you call yourself today.
Been following Pieter for years! Happy you were able to get him on the pod. As a software developer - he is 100% correct with people not understanding the complexities behind websites. Great episode!
Success is not built on success. It's built on failure, It's built on fraustration. it's built on fear that you have to overcome. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
The presenters are really quite annoying with their constant interrupting! Pieter sounds like he has some really interesting and inspiring stuff to say but you barely let him finish his sentences before you interrupt him to talk about your own off-topic tangent. Be less self-centered and focus more on letting your guest spread their thoughts.
100% I like that they get done great guests but they need to be more like Joe Rogan and be quiet. Let the guests share. We’re interested in the guests not the interviewer
Let this guy talk. Yes you got high and had some analysis that you tried to tie in with matrix and it made sense…for you when you were high. Just saying, let him talk and help flesh out into interesting topics as subtle as possible. Best interviewers are background noise. Be background noise. More is less. Keep up hard work.
The interviewers interrupted way too much, or just tried to belittle Pieter, instead of allowing the audience to learn more about how his games work. It’s a waste of having such an amazing guest with such questions/interview structure
100% agree. They don't let the guy answer the questions. They ask the question, he answers a little and then they interrupt and end up answering their own questions. It was hyper annoying to listen to.
This! Just wanted to comment the same thing...it's so frustrating to listen to Pieter outline something interesting from his process, only for the interviewers to interrupt him with yet another question that he won't be able to answer in full. Please let this podcast guest speak!!
He never spoke on how he markets and brings users to his work. So many people build things that go nowhere. That would’ve been great to hear more about.
that's because only a tiny fraction of the people making things can ever be successful, that's statistics and common sense, only a few can be rich in a Capitalistic system.
Gentlemen… I have to echo what a lot of people here are mentioning regarding the interruptions. Mainly because we didn’t get to hear him wrap up some of his insights and that’s what we are here for, to get his perspective! This may seem nit-picky, hopefully you take it as constructions but I also found it very weird that one of the hosts jumped off abruptly and because of a phone call. Emergencies may pop up but it didn’t seem like it was one. Just felt awkward and like the guests time wasn’t carefully planned around. I mean all of this in the best way by the way. That aside, glad the video was suggested. Officially going to be following up on the guest and his work.
Success doesn't happen overnight. It's a marathon, not a sprint. You have to pace yourself, put in the work, and be consistent day in and day out if you want to achieve your goals.
Never heard of any one on the show, this popped into my suggested videos and I loved listening. I loved learning about Pieter and his story. Its very inspiring and I will definitely check out his projects. Feedback for the podcast hosts: Its very important to give the interviewee time to speak. I know you guys love to talk and are very excited and want to chime in with comments or anecdotal stories, but that time is for the interviewee. It was really annoying to hear you cut-off the other person almost every 3 minutes that they were speaking just so you can add something to what they were saying. That kind of ruins the experience of listening for me. Allow them to finish their train of thought, then you can share something.
I agree. I wanted to hear more of this interviewees thoughts. I appreciate hosting the podcast but right before some important points, y'all interrupted.
Following him for the last 8 years! Missing his website / blog with all the projects on it! He would write down and blog about his whole journey of building websites and monetizing it. 12 startups in 12 months! So awesome.
For me the ideal number of employees is zero. I use freelancers/contractors but never hire anyone on perm and done well but I'd love to grow further without needing to hire
Suggestion: It would be nice to stream this layout with the main speaker in one large panel and Sam/Shaan in 2 smaller windows or something similar. It feels a bit awkward to have one person (active speaker) full screen and pretty zoomed in all the time for an interview style podcast and quick switching in between them.
I totally agree. Also, it would be nice if you would have a screenshot of some of Pieter Level's and other guests' content. I primarily listen to this as an audio podcast
The format works as is for me. You probably would like a format like Tom Bilyeu's interview style when they are in-person both speakers can be seen in a single shot with less zoomed in and individual shots.
You work for 40yrs to have $1M in your retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K in a meme coin from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires......
Pieter has a bit of an ego from time to time, but overall solid guy doing solid work. Quite unbelievable that there are SaaS companies doing less ARR in a year with teams of 30/40/50 people.
1:09:00 yes you can automate higher ticket selling. Sam does Airbnb, he can create online sales funnels that target people on social media and get them to buy over time.
This is the best interview for the season of life I find myself in; I have always had ideas having worked in Financial services that I have brought in house that should be brought into the consumer market..but self doubt and no one to share the approach with has caused me to walk away; but this interview woke me up.
In the right communities the Buy Nothing groups are super awesome. Keeps landfills from added junk and money for family's going to the things that matter
This was the very first MFM episode I ever listened too. No wonder I was instantly hooked and have now listened to almost every episode ever published.
(9:57) Contractors Peter Using for his Business (17:55) - What Pieter uses to build (40:45) - How Pieter spends and invests his money 1:08:00 One can steal your ideas but not your execution
Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!..
Followed this guy for a while. Huge inspiration. I also get sick of hearing all these unprofitable bloated startups funded by VCs... Love the realness of this guy, hustling his way there.
Several thoughts 1. This guy looks exactly like NBA player Domantas Sabonis. 2. This interview was not informative since it did not explain how he monitizes his websites. For example, how does his job board make money. Companies like ZipRecruiter had to build out a massive sales team to start generating revenue from companies. 3. There were no hard questions asked, just people sharing mindset. Where was the useful information?
19:30 - If only more businesses used stacks that could fix problems more quickly. Even sites with relatively small communities with EVERYONE requesting the same feature upgrades can take month, years, or just NEVER happen lol. Thumbs up to levels
at these sorts of earning I'd be doing my travelling on a yacht, you have a proper "home" (even with live-in staff to clean) but can see a new city every day if you want. Well done Pieter.
I agree about the Chinese Economy. Thanks for another informative video. Btw, I love how you’re filming while your House Keeper is cleaning in the background. You guys are the real deal.
The fact that this channel does not have at least 500 k subs still baffles me and yet there are a lot of nonsensical channels that have a huge fan following.
Great interview! Peter is a badass. I've missed some more detail on how he gets work done.. What his planning strategy is, when he knows what to tackle next, any daily software he uses to stay organized with all these projects he runs.. etc.. Maybe next time? :)
Please have Peter back on to go over his businesses, how he came up with them, how he got traction with them. Came back to listen to this again it really just covered what he's doing now that he is independently wealthy, his life philosophy and how indie hacking came to be. Really would love to get more specifics on his businesses.
These guys maybe were too young but CORT, has been a nationwide furniture rental company for decades. They´re actually global now. There are other ones too but they have always marketed more lower end since in the US the idea is you have to own everything.
FYI, Sonder is not an aparthotel. "Apartment hotels" or aparthotels are popular in some countries outside the USA; they're hotels with rooms that are more like apartments. They have all the benefits of a hotel, but are designed for longer stays. You can stay as little as 1 night, though. Not the same as renting many rooms in an apartment and "Airbnbing" them or short-term leasing them, which is what Sonder type businesses do.
1:18:00 - on not wanting to commit to a platform because of the implied work: Business Idea: Being in a shadow UA-camr. By this I mean, bring in a person who you like, who has your values, and being then in on every meeting/conference. - The intent is to 'make' someone (like raising a child on fast forward) so you do not necessarily want someone who thinks they are already a big deal. In return they create videos for UA-cam with your help until they don't need it anymore about your content, plus their own. Like an apprenticeship. You both go up faster than you would alone
I love this podcast. I’m a shameful Digital Nomad. Didn’t intend to like most. Mainly because of COVID and leftist in NYC shutting down life of the city. Started in Cancun Mexico, then Colombia, then Costa Rica , then Peru and now back in Colombia I love every minute. But I have bigger aspirations like any entrepreneur Pieter is a true pioneer, checked his site and found instant value
How can you leave “for another call” during an interview? You either need to check your manners or your time management (maybe both). You are interviewing HIM. It is like inviting somebody to your house and in the middle of a conversation you say “oh forgot to buy groceries. Was fun talking to you. You can let yourself out”…
Amazing podcast. Pieter is my hero. All these CEOs of these amazing startups are missing to share the real thing: how to find people to fill the content before you launch the app. Because if I have a great idea, but I don't have the content to put in it, how do I find it? where do I find it? Sharing on social media is not enough anymore, it's not 2014 anymore. I'm talking about this because I'm building my first startup after many failures, so this is a key point: content.
Ohh the dog issue is real and there has to be a business idea or two right there. Drove across the country twice the past year with my highly anxious senior GSP because he would have died if I tried to fly with him…. The travel friendly dog owner service should be a thing with out pricing out the main stream. Esp post pandemic when everyone and their mama has a dog now
Really cool and inspiring! Also, 51:31 TFW the Dutch guy speaks better English than the interviewers by saying _lie_ down instead of the nonsensical "lay down" that these guys have said. Also, _route_ is pronounced identically to "root"; it's not _rout,_ which means something entirely different.
Has anyone heard about the new meme project AINEMO? They are at the launch stage, the project looks interesting. I would like to know your professional opinion as an expert))). May I ask you to make a video review of this project?
I think he should build a digital-business-building-site that’s a mashup of Canva and Kindle Direct Publishing. Here are some tools and formats and integrations to play with to then create your own software that can be marketed to the entire world and you don’t have to learn to code etc.
I'm seriously flabbergasted by the constant interruptions while the guest was in the midst of sharing insightful thoughts. The interviewers' tendency to interject and divert the conversation was not only frustrating but truly did a disservice to the guest, who clearly had so much more to offer. Interrupting is often considered one of the top rookie mistakes in podcast interviewing. Just some feedback I'd like to share; still wish you guys the best.
Same. The two hosts talk about themselves too much. I've already watched so many videos about them, so I wanted to hear about Pieter.
Idiot tech bros
THIS!!!
Yeah I couldn’t believe how they’d ask a question and immediately interrupt before the guest could even start speaking
My thoughts exactly.. they're rather irritating!
Great interview. Just didn't like it when Pieter was cut short while he was fleshing out his thoughts.
I feel same way
Yea he has a lot of stories
Same. Made it worse.
Same. The interviewers seem nice, but I legitimately could not finish watching this
can’t agree more
Stop interrupting the guest. The channel would improve by letting the guest speak more.
Shaan speaks too much with little substance
@@cwaddlekm😢 LLL like on kol I think it's a great idea I was
Leh
Most of these guys don’t know how to interview
I completely agree. Though I love these guys, let the interviewer connect his sentences .
Pieter Levels is like from another planet for these guys.
- Interviewer: ...Money.... Revenue... Growth.
- Pieter: Truth... lifestyle... friends... family.
He's on another level, if you will.

@@justellythelegend i sold a startup for more than what he makes, i just dont brag about it online every second. Grow up you indie hackers or whatever fashionable name you call yourself today.
Love Pieter but the interviewers interrupted him so many times. So annoying.
The interviewers need to spend a year in nature
Thats what we do here.
worst interviewers ever seen
You have to remember that there are possible delays in the video feeds that cause people to start talking at awkward moments. It happens..
Been following Pieter for years! Happy you were able to get him on the pod. As a software developer - he is 100% correct with people not understanding the complexities behind websites. Great episode!

I don’t want to be a billion dollar company. I just want to make a couple million chill, you know… F…ing golden. Love this guy.

Agree, they make it about themselves, and how successful they have been. They need to let the super interesting guest talk.
Yeah, unfortunately these guys never learn and must never read the comment section. They do it all the time, every time.

He never spoke on how he markets and brings users to his work. So many people build things that go nowhere. That would’ve been great to hear more about.
So true! doesn't matter what you build, if you can't market it, you're going nowhere

This was my favorite episode by far. Pieter Levels is inspirational in so many different ways - makes me want to step up my game!!

You work for 40yrs to have $1M in your
retirement, meanwhile some people are putting just $10K in a meme coin from just few months ago and now they are multimillionaires......
The interviewers were doing too much of the talking for my liking, especially near the beginning, and were interrupting too much.
Pieter has a bit of an ego from time to time, but overall solid guy doing solid work. Quite unbelievable that there are SaaS companies doing less ARR in a year with teams of 30/40/50 people.
Well, his ego is to BE him self..🤷♀️ Why being somebody else ❓🤔🤷♀️
1:09:00 yes you can automate higher ticket selling. Sam does Airbnb, he can create online sales funnels that target people on social media and get them to buy over time.
Thing about renting furniture is; if you have pet allergies, or what if the other people have bed bugs (some people don't react to the bites).
php, js, jquery lol. If something is working, why change it!? Love it!
I wish you could have let him talk more and interrupted less.
This is the best interview for the season of life I find myself in; I have always had ideas having worked in Financial services that I have brought in house that should be brought into the consumer market..but self doubt and no one to share the approach with has caused me to walk away; but this interview woke me up.
seriously a great episode. so glad you guys got him on the podcast
Pieter Levels is a great inspiration! Thanks for the podcast!!
No idea why they even invited the guy. Wasted everybody's time basically ignoring the guest.
Pieter's a great guy - super-high integrity.

Pieter has a great video on UA-cam from 4 years ago called "How to build a startup without finding"
Several thoughts
1. This guy looks exactly like NBA player Domantas Sabonis.

Came back to listen to this again it really just covered what he's doing now that he is independently wealthy, his life philosophy and how indie hacking came to be. Really would love to get more specifics on his businesses.
Granted, Shaan and Sam were still learning to dance in there episodes, they have come a long way. Would love to see Peter back on.
How can 3 guys like this limit their lives or want to limit their lives by owning pet animals? mind boggling 1:02:42

this was a great interview, I feel very inspired.
Really cool and inspiring! Also, 51:31 TFW the Dutch guy speaks better English than the interviewers by saying _lie_ down instead of the nonsensical "lay down" that these guys have said. Also, _route_ is pronounced identically to "root"; it's not _rout,_ which means something entirely different.
My top 5 episode for sure

Has anyone heard about the new meme project AINEMO? They are at the launch stage, the project looks interesting. I would like to know your professional opinion as an expert))). May I ask you to make a video review of this project?
Oh yes, I also heard about this project. I'm interested in their game and NFT. It must be great
I join the request for a video review!
And what can the author review? Is it real?😮
Pieter is awesome, what a great episode
Sam you mentioned writing is a talent - any tips you've used to find talented writers for the Hustle?
Also mentioned a few times it's really hard to have journalist writers as employees 😂
Finally!!!! Been waiting for this episode from the time Steph Smith mentioned him!🤩🤩
Will one day be on this show. Have loved the show since I started following …. Giving myself 2 years tops 😊
