Idea Behind Company

Max Heaney’s background in the military and law enforcement left him searching for a fulfilling career. While working in sales, he discovered his passion for stock trading by joining a Discord group of like-minded traders. As he contributed more to the group, he realized others were frequently seeking his advice. This led to the idea of creating his own group to share his strategies. Max saw the potential in developing a community around his trading expertise, especially after receiving encouragement from others to start his own platform.

Through this experience, Max found his calling. He saw that people were achieving success by using his advice, which motivated him to formalize the community and launch Max Options Trading. His focus shifted from simply trading for personal gain to helping others master the same skills.

Creating the Company

The company’s first project came through a referral, where Dusseau and his team helped build a life-coaching app for a professor. The app required complex features such as real-time communication and payment functionalities, and the team charged $10K for the initial ideation phase. The project, despite challenges, provided essential learning experiences for the fledgling company, especially regarding how to structure pricing, staffing, and product development processes.

Their process involved deep market research, customer interviews, and creating detailed prototypes before moving into development. They used tools like Sketch for prototyping and held collaborative working sessions to ensure the final product met the client’s vision. After completing the ideation and prototyping phases, the company moved to development, charging $130 an hour for the work.

By breaking the project into phases and maintaining transparency with the client, Dusseau and Company was able to successfully deliver the minimum viable product (MVP) in just two months. This project laid the foundation for the company’s approach to future projects, helping diverse founders bring their ideas to life while staying budget-conscious.

Launching the Business

Max’s launch strategy was straightforward due to the support he had already built within the trading community. He began by launching a Discord server and a simple website, inviting over 100 members who were already eager to subscribe. On the first day, the platform had 50 paying subscribers, most of whom remain part of the community today. His website started as a basic platform but has since evolved into a fully integrated site with numerous features for users.

The startup costs were minimal, and Max largely relied on his own savings and a few credit card charges to fund the initial launch. By focusing on building the platform organically and keeping operational costs low, Max was able to quickly become profitable. His transparency and authenticity were key to attracting and retaining subscribers.
