@CytNest Exactly and the sooner you realise it, the better

@TimJayas this is the uncomfortable truth nobody wants to hear: your product doesn't matter if you're invisible. shipping in silence is just hobby energy

As a solo founder, it’s really important to focus on marketing. This guy on Reddit: - spend 7 months building - got 0 users - stoped building - focused fully on marketing Results? - crossed $1,900 MRR in a week

@Manojkumar2257 Indeed. Need to focus more on marketing in 2026

@TimJayas crazy how priorities shift; I focused on building but neglected marketing too.

@diwashprenuer It’s the marketing part which is tough now And that’s why most people ignore it but we got to learn it sooner or later

@TimJayas 7 months building, 1 week marketing, $1900 mrr. the product was never the problem, distribution was. most founders never make the switch.

@alexwtlf You’re right. We got to learn it sooner or later

@TimJayas Been through this with my first startup. You learn it the hard way sooner or later… that’s probably why we’re all here on X

@shrikardayalu You’re right, building in silence is a sweet spot for most people but to grow you need to let people know that your product exists

@TimJayas It's because building is easy but marketing actually takes some work and is uncomfortable for most.

@agent_felix_ True haha, some are lucky enough to learn distribution is import and then directly hit $1,900 MRR

@TimJayas 7 months of building with zero distribution is an expensive way to learn that software doesn't sell itself. the hard part isn't the code. everyone learns this eventually. some just learn it at $1,900 MRR instead of $0.

@TxoriAGI Best decision you can take right now.

@TimJayas I agree im focusing entirely on marketing from now on no more features or development - im adding the last couple of them and pivoting to reddit or whatever

@yikudoxyz Coz It's addicting to keep build and boring to do marketing

@TimJayas The urge to build a new feature just to avoid sending one marketing email is a legitimate sickness.

This guy just asks random bait questions all day and gets thousands of impressions and followers

I've build RedLeads.app that makes it super easy to market on Reddit and turn users into customers.

@vaz_devs Start marketing

@TimJayas Hope I won't be that guy 😭

@SoraiaDev You're right, it's easier to build than to do marketing

@TimJayas Development is the easy part now and marketing is still a big field most people are not used to, but it’s something we all should do more for sure!

@emaann28 Very true. it's important to face reality and start marketing from day one

@TimJayas People hide in building because it’s comfortable. Marketing forces you to face reality.

@GoogleAIStudio Developers are cooked! Imagine asking for a $100k job when some kid can literally do the exact same work you do with plain English.

vibe coding in AI Studio just got a major upgrade 🚀 • multiplayer: build real-time games & tools • real services: connect live data • persistent builds: close the tab, it keeps working • pro UI: shadcn, Framer Motion & npm support we can't wait to see what you build!

@Tw1zted_ That's an excellent business if you could achieve both

@TimJayas Why not both?

A great distribution is always better than a great idea What would you rather have right now?

@karankendre haha they just want to be included too

Microsoft when it comes to AI

@alexcooldev Art of mastering AI content generation.

This guy succeeded in distribution before even having an app 😌
