A paid ad dies the second your budget runs out. A video posted by a real person on their own account keeps getting views 6 months later. A year later. You already paid for it. That's the compounding most brands ignore.

@vuhi0811 as the saying goes: hard work beats talent when talent doesn't work hard

reminder: if you're not as good as others. make sure you try harder than them.

@pramodk73 as harsh as it may sound, sometimes you have to let go of an idea to build something better. don't give up on the dream, just this specific one.

have been off building this month quite a lot so many things happening in my personal life one thing that kept bothering me is that, its been 2.5 years since I quit my job but hardly having $450/m take home from my saas need to do something different

@theisaacmed one of the many reasons brands should move to organic advertising. real people posting on their own accounts, no agencies, no negotiation. set a budget, pay only for verified views.

There is no worse rent seeking class of people that mediocre talent agencies. ‘No you can’t talk directly to talent’ ‘It’s 5k for 2,000 views’ ‘No you can’t go lower or we walk’ I can’t even describe how many deals these people have cost potential influencers / talent. Most of them are not even competent negotiators. They just sit there looking at an inbox all day and collect checks for replying.

same goes for developers. AI makes a good coder much better. it makes a bad one think they're good.

@msnrhu If you throw enough shit at the wall, eventually, some of it will stick

As long as you keep making things you'll eventually make it

@LewisHowes Working out. Not for the physical but for the mental. Nothing has impacted my focus and output more than that one habit.

If you had to restart your routine tomorrow, what stays? 💭

@initjean just joined 4 days ago and kept wondering why i was seeing the same 10 people without following any of them

tech twitter is pretty much just the same 100 people

@victor_bigfield Day 5, still waiting

startup saas founder waiting for their first customer

@garrytan @demishassabis Y Combinator youtube video incoming: "AGI IS HERE - THE END OF EVERYTHING"

Truly an honor and blessing to host @demishassabis at YC today 🙏

most startups die at distribution, not at building. but every founder talks about what they're building. almost nobody talks about how they're going to get their first 100 customers.

@romanbuildsaas this is the kind of post people charge for in a course. appreciate you for sharing it.

Gojiberry AI just hit $2M ARR. A few months ago we were at €0. This is the second SaaS I've built. The first one I sold at €500K ARR. This time, we moved faster. Here's exactly how we did it, so you can do it too. The core principle that changed everything: We used our own tool to grow our own tool. Gojiberry AI finds high-intent leads and engages with them automatically. We run it on ourselves. It works insanely well. Here's the full breakdown: 1) Outreach (the engine) - LinkedIn: 5 accounts, 30 connection requests + 30 DMs per account per day. Only targeting warm leads showing real intent. Connection acceptance rates and reply rates are insane when you do this right. - Cold email: 6,000 emails per day. 295,000 sent in 90 days. 900+ opportunities created. 41 domains, 123 inboxes, plain text only, no links, no images, 2-3 email sequences max. Total infra cost: ~$600/month. The offer is always the same: a valuable blueprint. No pitch. Just value first. 2) Inbound (the compound effect) - LinkedIn: 6 posts per day across 6 accounts. 6 days/week = lead magnet content. 1 day/week = founder story. Last 7 days: 788,187 impressions. - Reddit: 14.8M+ views in 12 months. The trick: warm up the account, post 3x per week, tell real stories, offer blueprints, and never debate the haters. - YouTube: Long-tail SEO content targeting competitor keywords. It's starting to rank. - SEO: 50K visitors/month and growing fast. 3) Paid (we're just starting) - 3 LinkedIn influencer posts/week (~$500 each). - Facebook retargeting + acquisition Scaling paid ads aggressively right now. 4) Demos 5–8 per day. ~70% close rate to free plan. Mostly sales teams. What actually worked: → Using our own tool on ourselves (this alone is a cheat code) → High-intent outreach > cold outreach. Every single time. → Lead magnet posts on LinkedIn that generate thousands of comments. One post added $5K MRR in under 24 hours. Cost: $0. → Replying to every single comment. → Speed. Every delay kills momentum. We removed friction from every step of the funnel. → AI helping us do 10x more than we ever could alone. What's not working: - We need to delegate. We're currently hiring a founding sales to help us scale to $10M ARR (feel free to reach out if you know someone 😇 ) The path from €0 to $2M ARR is not glamorous. It's 18-hour days, boring repetitive work, testing things that fail, and doing it all again tomorrow. But if you do the right things every day, good outreach, real value, fast follow-up, it compounds. And one day you wake up and you're at $2M ARR. The goal now: $10M ARR. LFG. 🔥 PS : we're about to launch a 0 -> $1M ARR GTM course. Want to receive it? RT + comment GTM below.

@paulg the small pond tells you you're good. the big pond tells you how good.

You don't know how big a fish you are till you try a big pond.

@noahreeveshq Yep, same here. I use AI to actually build the app but the actual app has nothing to do with ”AI”

You don’t have to build an AI app. I built an app for a client with ZERO ai features and it’s blowing up right now because it’s useful. Traditional products are still alive!!

@tommysearle or 1667 people at $50. same math, fewer headaches!

I just need to figure out how to get 16,667 people to pay $5/month for some stupid shit and all of my problems will be solved

@5harath the best time to build a security startup was 3 years ago. second best is now. the faster everyone ships with AI, the more holes they leave open.

Now is the right time to build a security startup

@aryanlabde Launched, no users yet. Working on it!

Which stage are you at right now? - building - launched, no users - making money

@paulg the non-AI idea can still be built with AI. underpriced market AND unfair building speed. best of both.

The biggest opportunity for would-be startup founders is AI. But the most underpriced opportunity is probably non-AI ideas. So if you have a good non-AI idea, go for it, because everyone else is going to overlook it.

Building a company has never been cheaper or faster. Standing out has never been harder. The barrier to start is near zero. So is the barrier for everyone else.

@itsbriankelly Claude's $20 is plenty. unless you are prompting entire codebases into existence. then you will hit the limit in an hour.

You can only keep one AI subscription. Claude Pro or ChatGPT Plus. Both are $20 per month. Which are you keeping, and why?
