Akshat Choudhary is the founder of WP Remote, which is an awesome and successful backup service for WordPress sites. But you won't hear him boasting about that. Akshat doesn't talk much. He's a self-professed shy guy. He's not someone you'll always be hearing from on YouTube, social media, podcasts. Instead, Akshat is an engineer who loves to focus on building great products. We dig into Akshat's story on this episode and how his quiet, quality work has produced a legion of loyal customers and fans.
Although he's shy, Akshat has some great stories to tell. Make sure you hear about his WhatsApp-style messaging platform that went viral, attracted 10,000's of daily users, and then nearly bankrupted him. Listen out also for how being a bad salesman helped him get his big break by selling migration services to WPEngine.
