I don't create content when I feel inspired. I write everything for the week on Tuesday. No matter what.

When I wrote The Self-Taught Programmer, learning to code was the safest career path. Now it is the most dangerous. Crazy how things change so fast.

@KaluraDeepesh Sounds like paradise to me haha

Solo founder confession: I sometimes go days without talking to another human about work. Just me, the terminal, and an endless to-do list. The code becomes your conversation partner. Not healthy. Working on it. #indiedev #solopreneur #mentalhealth

@MattKuda Congratulations! What did you learn?

Hit a big youtube milestone this weekend. Motivation to create is at all-time high. Onwards!

Cringe is the toll on the road to being known.

Founders: how do you know you are building something people actually need?

@rackSpreader1 I want to go I’ve never been

cape cod is the new SF

@cheaf25master Audience

Be honest: What should you build first? • The Product • The Audience Most people get this wrong.

@DataRunnerDev @X Let's connect!

Looking to #connect with people on @X. If you're a founder, builder, into tech, AI, Startups, programming, mobile dev, web dev, SaaS, o Designer. say Hi or drop what you're working on #connect 🤝

SaaS builders: what marketing strategies are NOT working for you right now?

@TheMcCoy_ Let's go!

Gm ct. Gm web3 builders. Gm AI enthusiasts. Have courage in what you build. Have courage in what you create. Have a great day.

@AIDailyGuy Nice will check this out thanks

@coryalthoff true. and the next bottleneck after they reply is the call itself. most cold opens lose the prospect in the first 5 min reintroducing context. saytime moves that context into the booking step. demo below.

Cold outreach is the most honest channel there is. No algorithm decides whether your customer sees what you have to say. You do.

I've sent thousands of cold messages. Only two things matter: proof and personalization.

You don't have a lead problem. You have an "I'd rather redesign my website than DM a stranger" problem.

@TheMcCoy_ For sure. What are you working on?

@coryalthoff True. Building a community will give you that.

You don't need a better product. You need ten people who'd be genuinely angry if it disappeared.

@BoranDako Well if nobody is using it that means the problem isn’t people don’t like it. But you are b2c right? Going to need to start driving traffic from social media! Do you post videos?

@coryalthoff Close to zero😁

People aren't ignoring your startup because it's bad. They're ignoring it because they've never heard of it. Those are completely different problems

@BoranDako How much traffic are you getting?

@coryalthoff May be or it's really bad service. Any suggestions @coryalthoff ?
