I want to connect with more founders/builders/vibe coders/ai enthusiasts. If you are one of them, how are you acquiring users/clients?

@AiroPrompts Sustainable? Most definitely not. Setting you up so you don't have to do this forever? Absolutely.

Is it worth spending that much time on X to get almost 300 followers in the first week?

In the world of "solo-founders" I feel like you can jump into the future by bringing on talent into your startup sooner rather than later. Would you give up equity if it meant you finally started scaling?

I’m 32. I’ve done $80M with affiliates. The secret: 100 creators × 30 posts = 3,000 pieces of content per month. • Pay 20-25% commission.  • Add an $800-$1k retainer.  • Repost winners as ads.  • Gamify with leaderboards. You don’t need a marketing team. You need a system. I bootstrapped my own brand to $100M in 3 years using this exact playbook. Comment 'SYSTEM' below if you want 1-on-1 mentorship on building a creator-led affiliate machine for your brand.

@ZwagLoL I feel like getting 2.3 million views on a 3 hour video is infinitely harder than getting 2.3 million views on a short, no?

@sammgrowth Do you think AI marketing can help B2B as well? Or do you think in its current state it can only impact B2C?

@rsalimx What kind of app is it? I saw you're marketing on reddit and TikTok so I'm assuming it's B2C?

I'm going to delete this post in 48 hrs... Because I just dropped the complete system to scale from ZERO to $1,000,000 with Facebook ads. This is the exact 3-pillar framework we use to take ecom brands from broke to million-dollar months - the same system that helped my Inner Circle student Luca hit $1.1M in 6 months. We charge $10,000/mo to do this for clients… But today, I'm giving it away 100% FREE. Like + Comment "MILLION" and I'll send it to you.

@DeRonin_ The real question is, how do I become the company who can pay for these UGC videos. Because if they're paying for it, it's converting.

startup idea for you build an AI UGC machine and sell it to e-commerce brands who are paying $150-500 per video from creators on Fiverr what is it? UGC ads get 10x higher conversions and 50% lower ad costs than branded content. every e-commerce brand needs 10-50 new UGC videos per month. most are paying creators $150-500 per video. that's $1,500-25,000/mo just on content your tool generates the same thing with AI for $2-5 per video. same talking head format, same "real person reviewing a product" energy. 99% cheaper how to build it with fully open-sourced stack ↓ 1. use LivePortrait (16k+ github stars) or SadTalker (13k+ stars) for AI talking head generation. feed it one photo → it generates a realistic person talking. no actors, no filming, no studio 2. use Coqui TTS or XTTS v2 for voice cloning. clone any voice from a 6-second clip. 17 languages. your client's brand voice, replicated infinitely 3. use GPT or Claude to generate the scripts. feed it the product description + target audience → it writes 10 UGC scripts in 30 seconds. hooks, pain points, CTAs, all formatted for TikTok and Reels 4. stitch it together with FFmpeg. auto-add captions, product shots, background music. output vertical video ready to upload 5. wrap it in a simple UI with Next.js + Supabase. your client logs in, types their product name, picks a face and voice, clicks generate. 3 minutes later they have 10 UGC videos ready to test 6. pick one niche. dropshippers, Amazon sellers, DTC skincare brands, supplement companies, app developers. wrap it in their language. "AI UGC ads for skincare brands", NOT "AI video generator" 7. charge $299-499/mo for unlimited generations. Arcads charges $110/mo with limits. human creators charge $150-500 per single video. you're 10x cheaper than creators and more flexible than Arcads. the math sells itself 8. build media around results. post ad performance comparisons on X. "AI UGC ad: $0.43 CPC, 4.2% CTR vs branded ad: $1.80 CPC, 0.9% CTR." that's the content that gets you clients without cold outreach 9. once you own one niche, expand. add AI product photography. add AI ad copy generation. add automated A/B testing across platforms. now you're not a video tool, you're the entire creative department Arcads just raised $16M. Creatify just raised $15.5M. the market is validated but nobody built the open-source version yet the models are free on GitHub. the deployment tools are mature. the demand is daily: brands retesting creatives every single week the $10B+ UGC market is growing 29% per year. the tools to build this cost $0. the customer relationship is where the margin lives you can build this as one person. you don't need actors. you don't need a studio. you need a GPU, a niche, and a landing page, THAT'S ALL btw, if you love such as format of ideas exploration in public, drop your fat LIKE, maybe i will go on it as a rubric since basically i get 5-10 ideas per day and don't have time to build it why they should stay only in my notetaker lol

this Adaptive AI agent tells brands exactly what tiktok content is going viral in their niche before they brief a single creator here's how brands are running campaigns that actually convert on Content Rewards: -> drop your niche hashtag in and it scans TikTok for the highest performing content right now -> filters by view velocity, engagement rate, and watch time -> identifies the exact hooks, formats, and topics driving views in your market -> maps out the patterns every viral video in your niche shares -> generates a full content brief your creators can execute immediately -> launch it as a clipping campaign on content rewards and scale with hundreds of creators -> tracks what's working and updates the brief as trends shift -> every step from trend research to live campaign is automated what used to cost a full agency retainer now runs on autopilot. reply "AGENT" + RT and i'll send you the full breakdown so you can launch your first data-driven creator campaign this week (must be following)
