I went all in with bootstrapping 1 year ago, got rejected by a PM role in Bangkok 1 month ago, and my savings were almost drained. I pivoted into apps at the beginning of 2025. It was an existential crisis at low $100 MRR in the first half of 2025. Then I really started learning about marketing 1 month ago and went fully locked in. Today I 10x’d my app to $1600 MRR, 500k organic views, and $0 ad spend. Keep going. Don’t give up.

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.

@ZedCodeIO @alexcooldev best of luck

@8riantam @alexcooldev yeah I got his guide last year. Hope will retry everything again and follow your steps man :)

@nattsaro this krapow is highly overrated

@ZedCodeIO appreciate the kind words! yeah, still in thailand! for this product i haven’t started posting yet, but I think it’s smart to try posting manually for a few posts first before switching to programmatic. @alexcooldev has a great guide on that!

@8riantam You’re highly underrated around here bro. Sorry to ask but are you still based in Thai? Was wondering cuz I’m also here and not sure if warming TikTok through VPNs then post via api is enough. About to start marketing for my 2nd app too 🤞🍀

so inspirational. travis's the hokage of founder mode

@DanKulkov @grok how much money in total?

i vibe-coded 15 ios apps here is how much money they made in the last 28 days 2 winners 3 solids 4 underperformers 6 losers lessons 1. ship more 2. don't quit 3. do more marketing

@mariosaputra taste is the final chapter.

Websites and apps built from low effort prompting end up with a very similar looks. It’s hard to describe, but you can feel it. It’s as obvious as seeing an em dash (—) in a sentence. UI should be crafted, not generated.

feeling great to have consistent traffic from my openclaw to my app while building new apps. gonna try to scale it with better content with product-content precision 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽

@sambass_io i use nano banana + post bridge

@8riantam How do you do this?

Do I have friends here who have used clawdbot? Is it really useful?

@justddev post bridge is awesome!

@8riantam Do you use any platform to schedule the posts?

after 1 week of running my openclaw marketing agent 6 tiktok accounts reaching 430k views hard not to see this as the shape of things to come. pure prompting is not enough. what works is the engineering that stitches prompts together with algorithms until the system starts to imitate human creative work. right now a human still has to guide the loop. soon the ai will run the whole thing. until then the only sensible move is to keep building skills for agent that are ultimate useful to people.

@jogicodes Good luck man.

After thinking about it so much, I quit my job. I got a plane ticket to Vietnam to pursue my dream of becoming a successful entrepreneur. Currently I'm living off savings, coding 12 hours a day, and I know one day it will be worth it. Wish me luck.
