hold on hold on hold on. I just logged into Stripe to check something and— there's a payment for FolderTube. a real one. from 10 days ago. I didn't get a notification, didn't see an email, nothing. it was just… sitting there. someone paid me. for something i made. and i didn't even know. i'm shaking a little ngl🥹

It's roughly been 1 month since I got premium. Today I hit 600 followers In this 1 month: > Went from 314 → 600 > 90k+ impressions > Made some good friends (best part) > Levelled up my skills If you are seeing this, trust me, the single best thing you can do is BUILD IN PUBLIC

@daidev0105 Thanks this looks cool

Ohh so now we’re 4404 people in tech/development Just 600 more to hit 5k 💪🏻 For those who are new here I’m an SDE at a startup And I share my journey of building @madeforcollab and tech stuff..

@maks6361 It's amazing to have increased revenue fivefold! I thought the screenshot could stand out a bit more on the timeline, so I made a quick polished version. Feel free to use it.

One of my AI identifier apps that I built a year ago was barely breathing and was doing around 20-30€ a month. So it was a good candidate to kill and forget. However I decided to spend 2 hours on just localising it instead and there's the result. Yeah, it's not a record-breaking increase but the app revenue jumped from 20-30€ to 130-150€ a month after only couple of hours of work! I could've killed it but why would I if it pays off my Claude and Codex subscriptions 🙂

🗓️Day33 update ✅+36 people visit my service - Datibase 7 - cozyscreenshot 10 - FolderTube 19 Now that development has settled down for the time being, I’ll be focusing a bit more on X starting today😇

@daidev0105 Thanks, What app is that ?

🚀 Launched my first-ever SaaS back in April! The numbers aren't huge yet, but getting this traction from just a couple of Reddit posts feels like a solid win: • 33 users • 3 paying customers ( plus 4 users that paid for $1 trial ) • 1.1k visits in the first 30 days Conversion rate is still low, but with 1.1k visits I’ll happily take it. Based on the data and traffic, I’m confident that pushing harder on Reddit + Pinterest marketing will get me to $1,000 MRR by the end of May. Let’s go! 💪

@vaaselene That's a great analysis; I've learned a lot. I thought the screenshot could stand out a bit more on the timeline, so I made a quick polished version. Feel free to use it.

My product was making revenue, but I wasn't happy with the traffic. So 7 days ago, I launched a new feature. I tweaked the message slightly and tried to distribute to a larger audience b/c I waned to get more traffic. As a result, it got the highest traffic and +100 new sign ups. However, the revenue stopped. This never happened since launch, no sales for 6 days straight. Yesterday, I switched back to my original messaging, started talking again to my smaller, niche audience. Then today, I woke up to a new paying customer. Few lessons I learnt: - be careful when adding a new feature, make sure it still aligns with ICP (my new feature did not) - I don't need a new feature to gain more traffic - try optimising distribution channels or user journey before touching the product itself

🗓️Day31 update finally added the LP and Pro plans (one-time payment) to cozyscreenshot!

🗓️Day30 update added a filter feature to the subscription page on FolderTube. For the time being, plan to focus on building😇

🗓️Day29 update added a survey feature to FolderTube that appears when users uninstall the app. To be honest, I regret not implementing this sooner. Now we can understand why users are leaving!🥹

🗓️Day28 update I have added annual and lifetime plans to FolderTube😇

🗓️Day27 update ✅+11 people visit my service - Datibase 5 - cozyscreenshot 2 - FolderTube 4 Yesterday, I spent the entire day working on implementing and testing FolderTube’s annual and lifetime plans. I’ll do my best to reach 5 paying users by June 6😇

🗓️Day25, 26 update ✅+29 people visit my service - Datibase 6 - cozyscreenshot 11 - FolderTube 12 I forgot to post my usual update yesterday, so here are the entries for the 25th and 26th. Up until now, I’ve been treating this more like a hobby, but starting today, I’m going to set some concrete goals and stick to them😇

today hit 150 followers🙌 finally hit 150 followers! 200 is within sight. Thank you, everyone!
