In my first start-up, I had an initial advertising budget of $5 per day total. That would buy us 100 clicks per day. At $5 per day, marketing people scoffed and said that is too small to matter.

Designing is a matter of concentration. You go deep into what you want to do. It's about intensive research, really.
