Monetization
Estimated X creator earnings
$46–$111 in the last 30 days
From 9.2M views on @jasonfried's original posts in the last 30 days.
Rewards eligibility: likely
Rough estimate. X publishes no payout rate, so this assumes about $5–12 per 1M original-post impressions from reported creator payouts. Only Premium viewers’ impressions count, so real payouts can be much lower.

While going through some really old legal files, we came across this old 37signals marketing flier (FAX!) from 2000. I remember making this in InDesign!

What a round trip! Customer on day one in 2004, then wandered a bit, and now back home with Basecamp 5. Welcome home Dave!

Accessibility was important to AJ. He tested a variety of tools and in the end picked Basecamp. "I chose Basecamp, which I was reluctant to even consider. Basecamp 4 was what my contract client used and I really didn’t feel it was a great project management tool. It was lightweight and limited in what it offered. Basecamp 5 has some nice updates that make it more competitive." Love when reluctant customers give 5 a try. Basecamp 5 is a whole new game. If you haven't tried Basecamp in years (or even just last year), do yourself a favor, clear the mental deck, and dive in. Full write-up: https://t.co/jABgmEr4mb

Austen really gets it. He connected Claude to Basecamp, asked Claude to do some work for him inside Basecamp, and well, it was "absolutely awesome".

My favorite testimonials are from reluctant customers. Here's one I just got from someone who couldn't make earlier versions of Basecamp work for them, but Basecamp 5 totally clicked for them and their clients. Glad you tried again Adam. Great to have you on board.

One of my favorite things about Phil Jackson was how he’d sometimes just sit on the bench and let his players figure things out instead of calling a timeout. I’ve always been inspired by that approach.
