I have a similar story except I didn't move anywhere to reduce burn, I just worked a full time job and built the company in my off hours. But I did prototype, charging a small fee, for almost 2 yrs too. Once I launched the v1, I went from 1k MRR to 20k MRR within 12 months. Congrats on your success. It's always hard work.

Thanks for at least taking a look and replying =) I do know a bit of Django and will likely extend to other dbs, if there's a need. I originally connected to both HIVE and Greenplum databases because that's what I have at work. As a hobby, I just create postgres dbs on AWS so I mainly connect to those these days. Thanks for the tip.

Just wanted to share a simple py script that I built to automate uploading multiple csv files to a postgres database.

The script will clean the file name and column headers and create the SQL statements to create the db table and upload the file to the database, automatically.

I used this script almost everyday at my past job to upload data from other teams and departments.

I recorded a tutorial on youtube for anyone that wants to try to build it out (links in the README). Hope this is helpful either as a way to easily upload files to a db or as practice getting better building python scripts to automate your work.

Following you on IG now. I just wanted a medium where your site and it's art work would bubble up on occasion since I'm not always buying artwork. I think IG is perfect considering you just share art work. Perhaps promoting the IG channel more on the website would help?

A mailing list is nice because you're actually collecting emails and can use them somehow in the future. You could collect emails and then send users a welcome email that also promotes your IG channel. It just wasn't obvious you have an IG channel. Hopefully this is helpful.
