@StevBuilds Yeah, but no distribution also makes shipping feel pointless sometimes 😅

@Sharad_024 But the foundation to have something to distribute is shipping or?
Kinda Chicken/Egg Situation here?

Going full time on your own product really changes the way you think.
At first you feel like you’ll just focus on building.
But slowly you realize you’re doing everything at once.
Talking to users, fixing issues, handling marketing, creating content, replying everywhere, managing growth and still trying to build the actual product.
The founder title sounds cool until you experience the responsibility that comes with it.
Some days feel messy and overwhelming.
But the learning that comes from this journey is something I don’t think any job could teach in the same way.
You learn how to take decisions, stay calm under pressure, communicate better and keep going even when things are uncertain.
Hard phase for sure.
But definitely worth it.

@OrbitAppsNet @KaiXCreator It's a platform helping SaaS teams manage user feedback, public roadmaps, and product updates in one place, so founders can understand what users actually want and ship with more clarity.

@Sharad_024 @KaiXCreator Great idea.
Could you explain more?

@nmamizerov Wishing you lots of success with both, SEO especially can become a huge asset over time

@audiencon Some startups don’t have downtime alerts, they just wait for the Claude status page to move

Forget funding, followers, and luck.

@JakeManger That first revenue graph spike always hits different
Which channels drove most of the traffic?

@SaidAitmbarek Getting copied is almost validation at this point

@Priya_Upadhyay_ Especially now with AI tools. A small focused team can do what used to take entire departments

@joelgascoigne This is such a refreshing growth story to read.
Steady execution, resilience, and patience over hype. Congrats to the whole Buffer team

Today we crossed $25M in ARR at Buffer, a significant milestone for us 🎉
This one has extra meaning for me because now that we're above $25M we're closer to $30M than we are to $20M. This comes after spending literally ~8 years around that $20M number.
You see, at Buffer we've had a very unconventional path to this $25M milestone. This isn't your typical up-and-to-the-right success story. Our path from $20M to $25M included a detour of declining back to $18M while we found ourselves and recommitted to our mission, customers, and values. Here's the journey we've been on:
It took us 5.5 years to reach $10M
Another 3 years to reach $20M
Another 6 years to reach $20M.. again 🎢 😅
Just 15 months to reach $25M 🎉
It's been a wild and at times very challenging journey, but I wouldn't change a thing, because we've never felt stronger as a company and this is reflected in our trajectory to $25M. If fact we only just crossed $24M two months ago.
We have a ton of good stuff coming to existing and new customers in the coming months. We're using our growth and success to make Buffer the most simple, powerful and generous product we can.

@corbin_braun True, once you look at inventory, logistics, rent, and staffing in other industries… software starts looking like a cheat code
English

@rozzabuilds A lot of times doing more is just slower progress spread across everything.
English

@LoicBerthelot Distribution and execution matter way more now
English

@nizzyabi Honestly true. A few conversations with real users can teach you more than weeks of building in isolation
