#4 on Unicorns’ fastest growing startups list 🚀 $0 ad spend. The real driver: constantly A/B testing distribution channels. Reddit ended up being the winner, joining the right communities and actually contributing first is key. Double down on what works and keep testing.

$346 yesterday $280 web / $66 app Now focusing on LTV Revenue might dip short-term, but retention > acquisition Your app is not sustainable if users churn after the first cycle. I need to fix that.

@athcanft What makes an ad fail? If the LTV < CPR? Or what metric do you measure?

I can't imagine who would pay for this type of app Just 100K downloads & $400K/month No API cost, no server cost, no tech cost

33 → 385 followers in 10 days. After a year of barely posting. The only thing I changed: I stopped trying to sound like a founder and started sounding like a tired dad who builds stuff at 1am. Honesty scales. Who knew. 15 away from 400. Let's see how weird this gets ro🚀

@Hritik7742 Yea it’s only iOS right now but next steps would be launching android. It’s coded in react native so it shouldn’t be too difficult to get the android version out I just know their release process is a pain

Yesterday: $42 All from the app Had a couple cancellations this morning Right now I’m focused on increasing LTV so when I get a user, they actually stick. Goal is to get those changes done by the end of today.

@gabru0160 My revenue cat MCP told me it was $11 but I just looked myself and it says $55 so I’ll have to get back with you about the LTV. Not running any ads at the moment so no cost for acquisition.

@yolakhann I would say less than $10 because my current LTV in the app is $11. Trying to look more into the data this week to see what I need. Also trying to get that LTV up. I don’t have any ad experience, any advice?
