This Week in StartupBase #26

Hey,

Quick update: Vitals has now sold almost 1,500 copies. Thank you to everyone who picked it up.

Right now it's $15 for a lifetime licence, or $9 a year. For StartupBase readers, I'm giving an extra 20% off the lifetime licence:

VITALS20SB gets you lifetime for $12, with every update included.

The code works for the first 50 people only.

👉 Get Vitals

One more thing: I've been rebuilding StartupBase, and a new, more modern version goes live next week. I'll share more when it's out.

Thanks, Atta
