I love dogs but I can’t eat a whole one. Building the “get me a job” button @ ApplyAll.com

75% Los Angeles, 25% Mpls/NYC
January was our first-ever profitable month. I’m proud of our growth, and am excited for the future. We’re now driving between 500-1000 interviews and job offers per month for customers. BUT, the screenshot doesn’t tell the whole story… 👉 Our profit is still only around $7.6K. 👉 My first-ever paycheck (!!!) is for $3.8K — not exactly life-changing money in Los Angeles. 👉 I’d spent the past 1.5 years draining my savings to bootstrap the company and pay da billz, and it will take a long time to recoup that 👉 If I’d taken a job instead, I would’ve made ~$300-500K in the same timeframe without draining my savings To put it into perspective: if you have a SaaS that’s doing only $3K MRR, but has been profitable w/ high margins since Day 1, you’ve made FAR more money than I have. I’m not saying any of this to poop on my own parade — I’m stoked to be where we are! — but I still think it’s important to share the reality behind the flashy Stripe screenshots, which is often not as glossy as it seems.

February revenue report. $22K gross, $17K net. I’m hovering around break even, so I can’t yet quit my day job. I could choose to be profitable, and have been in the past, but then I’d make far less progress on scaling (and still wouldn’t make enough to pay billz). Here’s where the money went in Feb: 💸 Refunds. 50% of refunds bc we can’t serve customers outside of tech or whose roles/prefs are too niche, another 50% ppl who are unhappy or claim they haven’t gotten any interviews (we offer full refunds for this, honor system-based but less abuse than you’d think). I see both of these as a challenge to improve the service. 💸 $7K to Upworkers who help get out over 60,000 applications/month (since the job applications are still only semi-automated) 💸 $5K to my amazing LinkedIn growth hacker/superaffiliate who drives at least half of our paid customers 💸 $4K to @AnthonyCastrio who is helping me automate away myself as a bottleneck (lots of stuff I still do manually, but don’t have time to automate due to day job. I make enough at day job that it’s worth it to outsource rn) 💸 $2.5K to one of my awesome customers I hired to help with customer support (I have access to quite the talent pool given what we do) 💸 $1K for software (Bubble, Axiom.ai for mah bots, Lemlist, etc) I know I should just go build some SaaS with low or no variable costs, but I do sincerely care about fixing the job search and, well, the sunk cost fallacy would agree with me there amirite?

Some of you already know, but I’m in a long distance cofoundership. We just hit a new milestone: first special trip together ☺️ We got to spend a day with many lovely, smart humans at @stripe in SF who put together an event to learn more about their early stage startup custies and show us all sorts of cool stuff they have in the pipe for our feedback. (But more importantly, the design nerd in me got to spend an entire day drooling over their gorgeous office 🤤)

Y’all. If you incorporate with Stripe Atlas, you don’t pay no Stripe transaction fees for a WHOLE YEAR. That’s an instant ~3% net revenue boost. And just one perk of many. Free Intercom for a year? Why yes I will gladly stop paying that $60 a month. Same with Notion. I literally just paid a service $500 to dissolve my prior company so I could re-incorporate through Stripe and take advantage. Will be a headache to import prior Stripe data to new entity but will pay for itself within weeks. May make sense for you too? (Pro tip: go through the @mercury / Stripe partnership portal and it’ll cost $200 less)

Last year, I got laid off from Indeed. (I assure you, the irony of that is not lost on me) Two weeks later, I bought a house for $75K with my severance. Across the country, in central Pennsylvania, sight unseen. Drained my remaining savings to renovate it (see photo!) Rented it out for $2100. That might sound dumb or reckless. Honestly it WAS dumb and reckless. And managing properties across the country from California is occasionally stressful. But the truth is, it’s damn fun to get off the computer and make ugly places pretty. And it IS real MRR, even if it’s not a SaaS. My rental income — from this property and 4 others — is my only source of monthly cashflow right now. It may not fully cover my expenses yet, but it makes a real dent. It’s the reason I can afford to bootstrap without a full-time job. (Real estate also has a number of insane tax loopholes that SaaS doesn’t, and some years I owe $0 despite profits) So yeah, that’s my whole secret other life that I’ve never mentioned on here. Now ya know.

Hit $1200 in August revenue for ApplyAll. After expenses, I can just about offset my monthly car insurance payment now 🙃 Learnings: 👉 most of my customers are referred by WoM (other customers + one career coach I know) 👉 spending just 1-2 hrs giving free resume feedback on Reddit resulted in 2 paid conversions. Automating this or training offshore worker to do so —-> potential great first acquisition channel 👉 the vast majority of my time is spent helping people improve their resumes before I even trigger their auto-applications. Automating this piece is now higher priority than finishing automating the applications themselves, or I won’t be able to handle more than ~$1500 in customers per month.

What they see 👉 Someone who must be ~so~ self-motivated and disciplined. She's building her own business and generating revenue. What they don't see 👉 I literally pay adult babysitters to cowork with me and keep me accountable on a daily basis. I'm a chronic procrastinator who, if left to her own devices, would spend all day every day on Zillow. After that, I'd stay up til 4am each night buying shit I don't need and can't afford on Amazon. My true superpower is being able to admit this one harsh truth to myself: that my willpower will never be adequate to reach my goals. Only once I fully accepted that could I design my life around that fact in order to try and reach my goals regardless, rather than set myself up to fail over and over. I think of it like bumper bowling. If you have bumpers up, it doesn't matter how poorly you throw the ball -- you'll still always knock down at least 1 or 2 pins each time, even if not all 10.

Do any of you know any startup founders or recruiters who want to be sent highly curated candidates when there's an obvious mutual match like this? (At no cost to them or their company, since we get paid by jobseekers.) Team ApplyAll does not mess around. Our goal is to get people jobs -- not just send out applications -- and we've already seen a couple of offers come from the few mutual matches we've made (despite the current job market) so we want to explore this avenue further ASAP.

Where did you see me mention anything about agencies? I have never worked at nor with one. I have a profitable biz with a $350K run rate with a Bubble web app, that until a couple months ago was 100% Bubble and Axiom.ai for scraping. Now a year later, we’re augmenting that app and picking off a few specific pieces that are outside the bounds of a typical web app (e.g. scrapers, email proxies, expensive/large scale data processing bits) to refactor with other technologies, but 1) it would have made 0 sense to do that a year ago and 2) as a lean team we’re choosing technologies heavily based on what us founders already know and can move quickly with (a la @levelsio who still uses vanilla php/html/css with no frameworks). It’s cute to mention the hot new low code/no code tech, which I know is great in many ways, but you can’t have a well reasoned POV on the right tech for someone’s business based on 0 information.

How can you even evaluate that without knowing what they’re building and what’s important? As someone who has built 6- and 7-figure profitable businesses heavily or entirely with no-code (including Bubble) — and know of 7-8 figure companies that use Bubble meaningfully if not entirely — dismissing any technology without understanding the use cases and tradeoffs first is what’s actually “for kids” (intellectually).

The 4th cohort of the Build in Public fellowship (@BIPF_ ) by @thisiskp_ just opened for registration. Yours truly was in the 3rd cohort. I’m a bitttt of an impulse shopper, so when I first dipped into my savings to sign up I was like wtf am I doing — I wanted to build my business and pay my bills, not become some vapid Twitter influencer. So, would I do it again? Absofuckinglutely. Here’s why: After 10 years of avoiding social media like the plague, I found myself in the position of bootstrapping a product for which creating a LinkedIn presence was stupid obvious — but also so intimidating it was paralyzing. At the same time, I was about ready to quit and get a job solely because I was struggling with isolation and self-motivation issues as a solopreneur without any accountability or a sense of community, online or off. @BIPF_ was what I needed on both fronts. I couldn’t recommend it (or the friendships I’ve made from it) more strongly. Case in point: I wouldn’t have had the courage to even write this tweet without rewriting it 40000 times over 15 hours before BIPF (and then inevitably deleting it if it gets no likes). And yet here I am, word vomit and all, competing for the longest twitter post ever known to mankind 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m not much of an armchair activist, but this is a cause I can really get behind (or should I say, a cause behind which I can really get) “Writing Examples is the opposite of Grammarly. It celebrates the wild, wacky, and the weird because it’s the bedrock of personality. The site’s explicit purpose is to inject some High Noon Chutzpah back into the world of writing. To teach you how to write with distinctly human fingerprints in a world that’s about to be flooded with AI-generated content.”
Announcing: Writing Examples Today is launch day! We built this website to celebrate great writing. It’s 100% free. Each article deconstructs a piece of writing from an iconic writer. The goal is to give you X-Ray vision into what makes sentences and paragraphs come alive (so that you can improve at your craft). Every example has an analysis of why the writing works. Analytical often means dry. But instead of going technical, we’ve gone technicolor. There are text-explainers, summary graphics, and videos that come together to make the writing instruction lively and multi-dimensional. It’s a place where you can discover how great writing comes together. Where we lift up the hood and see the mechanics in action. It isn’t about giving you a set of rules to follow. It’s about showing the diversity of ways writers approach their craft, so you can develop your own style. What are some of the articles about? You’ll learn how to describe a party like F. Scott Fitzgerald, how to tell a story like George Orwell, how to write a speech like John F. Kennedy. There are other articles inspired by the likes of John Steinbeck, James Clear, Winston Churchill, Edgar Allen Poe, Charles Dickens, Steven Pressfield, and Jerry Seinfeld. Writing Examples is a crusade against the sterility of contemporary writing. So much of the advice you read says the same thing: “Be direct. Cut the fluff. Get to the point. Stick to short sentences.” And yeah, sure, this advice has merit. It’s useful in certain cases, but the problem is writers take these rules to be universal, which has homogenized writing styles. Even in my own writing, there’ve been so many times where I’ve stripped away my own voice in the name of “correctness.” I regret that. The truth is, there is no one way to write well, just as there is no one way to speak well. The way you speak in a boardroom is different from the way you speak on a first date, which is different from the way you speak with your childhood best friends. Writing is similar. Writing Examples is the opposite of Grammarly. It celebrates the wild, wacky, and the weird because it’s the bedrock of personality. The site’s explicit purpose is to inject some High Noon Chutzpah back into the world of writing. To teach you how to write with distinctly human fingerprints in a world that’s about to be flooded with AI-generated content. Forget playing it safe. That’s the most dangerous thing you can do in a world of instant writing. I want you to write with personality. I want you to play with punctuation. I want you to ditch the corporatized hogwash. I want to expand your sense of what great writing can be. And I want you to have fun doing it. But there’s more to the mission. Writing Examples is a protest against today’s Internet, where people spend the majority of their time reading ad-polluted articles and doom-scrolling the same few social media sites. Remember when we used to surf the Internet? When every site was its own wave to ride? Now, we’re like phone-addicted zombies, we mindlessly scroll Twitter, TikTok, LinkedIn, Facebook, or Instagram until we feel bad about ourselves — only to repeat the cycle a few hours later. Writing Examples is different. Heartfelt writing deserves a heartfelt presentation, so every element of the site has been designed from scratch. Energetically, we wanted to honor the gravitas of classic writing without the sleepiness of a drab old library shelf.  We said no to ads. We said no to pop-ups. No hijacking your attention. None of the flat white backgrounds that make the Internet feel so homogenous. And we said no to anything that feels like your 5th-grade English class. Writing Examples isn’t about what’s trending. It’s about learning from the great writers of times past, most of whom you know, many of whom you probably haven’t taken the time to read. The ultimate goal is to make Writing Examples a one-stop shop to learn about any kind of writing you can think of. Now, I dare you to dive into the site and get to work.

Translated to indie hacker lingo: if you need a job come use our JaaS (Jobs as a Service)
We're in a tough market for job-seekers. If you have friends who are looking right now, you might not know how you can help them. Enter, ApplyAll. Here's how it works: ApplyAll is a done-for-you job search. Instead of applying to jobs manually, you give us your resume, location preferences, salary expectations, etc. Then we go out and find 100+ relevant job posts and apply you for those jobs directly. It flips the job search on it's head. Instead of spending all day looking for good jobs and filling out forms, we take care of all that for you. This process is partially automated but the bulk of the work is currently done by a team of trained job-searchers who spend all day making sure each application we send for you is relevant and accurate. Currently we only support tech-jobs, so software engineers, PM's, engineering managers, IT, etc. The quality bar is very high. We guarantee every customer will get at least one job interview within a month, or we refund them 100%. Most candidates get several interviews.

Unsexy truth: Currently I am spending ~2-3 hrs of manual work on each customer I get on ApplyAll.com. (About 50% of this is the hyper-personalized manual resume review I do for each customer, which is not easily replaced just by pasting their resume in ChatGPT) My goal for the week: Automate the process on ApplyAll.com such that I have to spend no more than 15 min max of manual work for each new customer (without compromising the quality of the resume feedback). Breakdown of how I spend ~2-3 hrs on each customer: - Personalized resume review: ~45 min (copy/pasting from template + personalized feedback) - Miscellaneous back and forth with customer about their resume: ~10 min to 1 hr (+ context switching) - Querying relevant jobs: ~15 min of fiddling with job search automation and eyeballing results to ensure all job applications are relevant - Generating relevant jobs: ~30-60 min semi-passive waiting for scrapers to finish grabbing the data for all the relevant jobs, and then making sure they didn't totally bork the data - Ensuring customer data and list of job applications is prepped for Upworkers in internal dashboard, then letting Upworkers know of new customer (~10 min) - Tracking progress of the customer applications (~5-10 min over 24-48 hrs) - Remembering to send customer email when applications complete with list of final jobs applied to (~5-10 min) My first step/goal for today: - Automate the last step (Remembering to send customer email when applications complete with list of final jobs applied to (~5-10 min)

Gies I just made a My Favorite Things (Sound of Music) radio station on Spotify and THIS SHIT SLAPS. It’s basically all the best classic Disney songs + every other family-friendly movie soundtrack banger. I forgot just how catchy and clever these songs are. (Currently playing: Zero to Hero - Hercules)

At least $5 million of their revenue has come from my boyfriend alone, I don’t have hard evidence but based on his closer I’m convinced he purchases True Classic by the pallet.

Heck yeah, the amazing @wonjitos picked the ApplyAll landing page for Day 4 of her redesign challenge! Fun fact: we’re still using a $9 Bubble template from 2019 That typography and heading is 🔥 and our crappy template looks sooo dated in comparison, ick!

Couldn’t have put it better. It’s time to even out the playing field for tech jobseekers.
Job-seekers are at a huge disadvantage compared to employers. Here's what you need to know if you're applying for jobs right now: The companies you are applying to process thousands of applications for every opening. They use automations to filter out candidates. Personalized applications don't matter if they never get read by a human in the first place. Applying to one job at a time just doesn't cut it anymore. You're fighting with one arm tied behind your back. We give you the tools you need to even the playing field: - we find high-paying jobs for you that match your experience and goals - we do all the manual labor filling out applications - we make you look professional We save you hundreds of hours applying to jobs and filling out forms so that you can focus on the things that really matter: - improving your resume - networking - interview prep Stop wasting your time. Start fighting back. Get the job you deserve.

Oh thank the good lord someone is finally building this. Can’t wait to try. We don’t use Slack atm but if there’s a way to sync meeting notes, todos, and assignees with Notion I’d be a very happy camper.

i don't care what industry you work in, you still have a moral obligation to hire any job candidate whose dog has the same name as your dog

I hear @GirlWhoShivers 's waiting list is quite full now but if you could make me some biblical/renaissance Powtato yat artwork in this same vein until I can get on her docket I'd be much obliged and owe you a favor. I literally LOL'd so hard when I saw this.

My beautiful idiot of a dog, 10x/day, every. single. day: “OH SHIT, is that a squirrel across the yard!?” ::thinks for a sec:: “Hey! I have a great idea! maybe I can ~finally~ sneak up on one and catch it!” ::squeals loudly in excitement the entire time as she sprints to close the 50 foot gap between them:: Squirrel: 7923. Pit Bull: 0.

I had a similar experience with a comedian friend last year. Then: “How do I find a programmer to build my app idea?” Now: literally making a living off his Bubble app, a ticketing platform for standup comedy: jetbook.co/
Small win today: A friend is visiting from Dallas and she mentioned to me about wanting to build a web app around wine. She had never heard about no-code before today. After giving her my one-hour rundown of everything I know, she blurted out: "omg I can totally do this!"

I've literally had some random photo of my dog as my twitter profile background for years just *waiting* for The One to show up. The prophecy never mentioned The One would be a diabolical tuber but that only makes this day more sacred for me.

Currently my favorite Twitter account. Most of my business ideas are actually non-software based stuff like this and I’m hoping ApplyAll will buy me the freedom to build all sorts of them and get off my damn laptop more.
Is anyone renting out movie-themed vehicles on Turo? Seems like a great side hustle. People would rent them for fun, parties, corporate events - what else?
