Grind Slave 🌠

This fitness app reached $100k MRR in just 3 months One of their top performing ads is this simple UGC reaction + app demo video:

@CarlosBBuild What about apple reviews, they take time …

Your iOS apps are going to make you rich

@adensdk Just asking because I was dealing with Google, Meta reviews for more than a month

@thegrindslave I got rejected a couple of times but I got it done in about a week

I don’t know how to code.. But, my mobile app is about reach $2K MRR!❤️ It’s a crazy world we live in.

@adensdk Damn! the review process stays a week??

@ericsmith1302 Based on how big is the app ( third party integrations,API’s …etc)

Which do you think is harder - growing a web SaaS or a mobile app?

@ericsmith1302 I also had a lot of quota, the logs shows rate limiting while I still didn’t used all the daily quota? What do you think?

@thegrindslave For AutoShorts? YouTube has given us a lot of quota so haven't had any issues

Slow and steady 🐢

Most founders build first, validate never. I used @saaspectai to map my GTM before launch. 2 weeks in → $719 MRR. Validation isn’t optional. It’s the product.

My first SaaS @saaspectai validated the idea and helped me through the distribution steps and finally the second SaaS has clients in the first week!

If your static ads get $0 in spend on Meta Here is the easiest way to make static ads that print. Shouldn't be sharing this... But f*ck it. Step 1: Go to AdSpy Step 2: Type in any 7-9 figure brand you like that is NOT your direct competition (trust) A few of my favorites: Grüns Norse Organics Huel Step 3: Filter in AdSpy by shares (not the longest running) Step 4: Download 5-10 ads so you have a context library Step 5: Go to Claude AI and make a Claude project Step 6: Pump that Claude project full of all of your customer reviews, feedback surveys, Facebook ad comments, and any market research you've done. Make sure you also add all of your target avatars, product information, and brand guidelines. Step 7: Now in the chat (not the project) upload the static ads that you found from AdSpy. Step 8: Copy and paste this prompt -- START PROMPT -- Start here: You are going to be helping me write an ad brief to create a winning Facebook & Instagram image ad. A winning Facebook & Instagram image ad is defined as a bold and scroll-stopping image with a powerful headline that ultimately allows the company to increase advertising spend profitably, and acquire more new customers. Please keep in mind that these image ads will need to be focused on specifically attracting NEW CUSTOMERS as ads that can attract and convert new customers are the only ads we are focused on making. So when writing these Facebook & Instagram ads, keep in mind the target avatar we will be focusing on will likely have never heard of our brand and does not care who we are. They only care about themselves. So this image ad has to appeal to them and show them we understand them. Using all the data and insights you have in your project, you will now write 9 headlines for the image ads. Ensure you leverage the data in the research document, are writing it for the specific avatar, the correct product. Also, make sure the written headlines are short (6-10 words max) and are written with one key objective in mind: to stop the scroll of our target avatar and grab their attention to learn more and ultimately purchase from our company For each ad concept: 1. Attach a small tagline/sub heading with it 2. Reference the example ad from the context images provided that you used to come up with the headline and how you made it work for my brand and avatar specifically 3. Briefly explain why this headline will stop our potential avatar’s scroll 4. Provide 2 other iterations of that main headline for me to choose from that follow the same idea. --- END PROMPT -- Step 9: Let Claude cook 🍳 Step 10: This is where some kind of skillset is required because you have to know which headlines are 🗑️ and which ones are 🔥 But this prompt should chef up some bangers for you Step 11: If you have a graphic designer, you're good. Send these over to him/her let them cook. If you don't have a graphic designer (you should likely get one or give your video editor access to @karlocreates community: eComTalent) Step 12: But, go to Canva, Adobe, Figma or whatever visual editor you want to use. Put the headline on a CONGRUENT image in bold text and make SURE it is kept within a 1x1 window so it's visible in all formats on Meta. If you don't have a congruent image, use a product photo. Simple. Step 13: Give it to Zuck and let him cook.

@racem_manita @instagram What happened???

@instagram just took down my account that I had for over 6 years for no reason at all. They said the account is against their community guidelines I’ve never posted something against policies on the account and they didn’t even clarify what I violated. Anyone having same issue?

We just helped a guy hit $1M+/month selling EMS ab trainers. Literally one of the most saturated Ecom products Meanwhile, you're wondering if your product is "dead" Most of the time, it's a skill issue. But not all products are worth scaling. Here's the 4 criteria I use to decide if a product is worth pursuing: 1) Google Trends Some of you are marketing products people don't want anymore. If you were selling newspapers today, no ad is saving you. The market is against you. Same if you're still pushing Kojic acid products you found on TikTok Shop. That trend has been declining all year. EMS ab trainer, on the other hand, the trend of fitness is not declining at all, so there's money to be made there. Do a simple Google Trends search on your niche, market, and product in your target country for the last 5 years. If the trend is flat or going up, you can make a lot of money. If there's a big decline, you're fighting gravity. Also check for seasonality. You'll be surprised the product you're selling may be seasonal. Plan accordingly. 2) Affinity Do you actually believe in what you're selling? Compared to random AliExpress junk, if you sell something you would use yourself or that you'd recommend to others, you'll do better. If you don't have conviction in your product, it's hard to convince others. You don't need to be passionate about it. Just something that resonates with you. E.g. Pilates products for women, even if you're a guy. If you've seen how it works and believe it can help, that's enough. If you don't care about the niche or the value you're providing, I would avoid selling that product long-term. 3) Non-Gimmicky Products If your product doesn't actually work, you'll hit a wall. Selling height-boosting gummies? Good luck. You'll spend more time convincing yourself it works than convincing customers. Do a simple search on GPT. If the product is obviously BS, avoid it. 4) AOV Above $60 If you're selling to the US, CPMs are high. Low AOV = hard to scale. $20 product with $30 AOV? Getting a CPA in the US below $20 is nearly impossible at scale. I aim for $60+ AOV after bundles and upsells. The Ecom brands that scale hardest usually have a high Shopify health score. Ideally 250+ You don't need a really good score when you start, but the higher the better. Shopify health score = CVR × AOV 3% CVR × $80 AOV = 240 ✓ 6% CVR × $30 AOV = 180 ✗ The brands we've scaled past $100k/day all score 200+ Because aiming for a 10% CVR at a big scale on a $25 AOV product is borderline impossible. I've never seen anyone do it. Low AOV means you need way more winning ads just to stay afloat. Either that or really good LTV, so you don't have to be front-end profitable. The bottom line: If your product passes all 4: - The trend isn't declining - You believe it provides value - It's not gimmicky - AOV isn't too low Then standing out comes down to two things: Find an underserved avatar, or find a new mechanism. That's how you beat "saturated" markets. Fix that, and scale is inevitable. I already have a tweet and YT video on how to do it.

Do it for her, bro.

2026 is going to be our year.
