Airbnb just blew my mind. Last month, my wife and I booked a place ($277 per night) for 4 weeks in the south of France. The place was nice, but we kept having issues: slow wifi, broken appliances, noisy neighbors. We messaged the hosts every time something happened (this is important). They were kind and fixed everything they could. I didn't leave a review after the stay because I'm a labrador and I don't like to share negative stuff. If I had to, it would be 3 out of 5. Airbnb reached out by email asking what went wrong. They knew we had constant issues. I think they analyze threads between hosts and guests using AI. I didn't reply to the first email. A few days later, they refunded the ENTIRE stay ($7,756) without us asking anything.

In 2021, I was depressed, living with my parents and 0 income. One day, I saw a tweet from @levelsio: A guy building startups with a laptop and no employee — Freedom. I took the plunge, moved to Bali, and shipped like a madman. I showed up every day, even when I didn't feel like it. 2 years later, I'm making $50K/month with my 20 products. Today, I was awarded @ProductHunt Maker of the Year 2023 — just like my idols when I got started. Go fucking do it.

Bye Bye fake MRR screenshots 👋 I built TrustMRR.com, the database of verified startup revenues. 1. Upload a read-only Stripe API key 2. Get a free page showing your verified revenue 3. And a nice dofollow backlink as a bonus There's no way to game the system. It's all running on my server, and users can't edit the revenue data. + It comes with the leaderboard of startups with the most revenue in the last 30 days. Go get verified!
There's so many fake MRR screenshots on here, but you can't really prove it, except that generally it takes people years to even make a successful project and then many more years to build up substantial revenue It took me years to get to $10K/mo revenue! Seeing people join X, then post $50K-$100K MRR screenshots within weeks, then disappear a year later, obviously seems like a scheme to extract money from you Which is when they post, reply "GAMEPLAN" so they can sell your their course It's a racket and you shouldn't fall for it or believe it

So I met the final boss of the game @levelsio 🤩 His tweets resonated with me when I was at my lowest. He's why I jumped into the solopreneurship journey and built tiny startups. We had dinner, and he's incredibly kind, humble, and fun. And boy he speaks Portuguese too. Now with half a million followers and half a million dollars a month, he keeps inspiring an entire generation of awesome people chasing freedom with a keyboard. Back to shipping 🫡

This is how I organize the codebase for all my 30+ startups. I ship fast because: - I reuse the same boilerplate over and over - I don't upgrade libraries unless necessary - I know exactly where everything is Once you've built 2/3 startups, take a day off to set a minimalist boilerplate for yourself. It'll 10x your productivity, especially now with AI.

Launching your startup on a new Twitter account will flop. Here’s what to do instead: • Launch on HN, Reddit, ProductHunt, TAAFT, Uneed, TinyLaunch, etc. • These platforms don’t care about follower count • It’s fast and usually free Then: • Share the results on Twitter • Grow your audience • Leverage it for your next launch Winning is how you build momentum.

We are a small community of ambitious people trying to never work for a boss again while working on projects we love. We aren't perfect, we ship bugs sometimes.

I've been a loser most of my life. As a kid, I was constantly fighting with my mom. She wanted me to have good grades, but I hated school, and school hated me. As a teenager, I didn't grow up. I was 155cm and super skinny when all the other guys were 180cm. I became an easy target, and I had to stop playing sports. As a uni student, I lost the remaining bits of self-confidence. I had no role model, no idea what to do. So I became the guy who drinks the most and plays World of Warcraft the hardest. As an entrepreneur, the first five years were painful. I kept failing, I cried, I lost my friends who followed the traditional path, and I felt completely misunderstood by everyone (my parents still don't really understand what I do). The wind only started blowing in the right direction after 28 years because I showed up. - I've built 30 startups when no one was looking. - I've worked out 300 days a year for three years before getting ripped. - I kept believing, even though I was hopeless. If you want something hard enough, don't give up because it's just about putting in enough reps.
When I see @marclou revenues for Sept. I have mixed feelings. A part of me is jealous like : how the fck this guy can be so good (and shredded xD). And a part of me is inspired like : OK that's what is feasible today in this world, maybe I can make it too ? If you feel the same, I get you. 1/ Embrace the "jealous part" (your shadow self) because its human, you're not supposed to be an angel full of light. The more you reject this part of you, the more it grows. Don't nourish it, but don't reject it. Balance it with the following : 2/ Nourish the "inspired part" (your light self), see how you're able to be happy for someone else that do great, soft with yourself even if you didn't make it yet, and courageous to continue to move forward. Hope it helps at least 1 person here. Keep doing the good work.

3 years ago, we were all broke. ​ But we had the dream of becoming financially independent and free. ​ After a few messages on Twitter, we became friends and started hustling. ​ We launched 50+ projects together. Most of them never took off. ​ For 2 years, each failure was a slap in the face: sleepless nights, food binging, gaming on the couch for weeks. We almost gave up. ​ But we supported each other. Each failure became a lesson that made us stronger. Each failure contributed to our financial freedom. ​ None of us expected to become rich quickly. ​ Build, learn, iterate. We trusted the process until we all got lucky. ​ @nico_jeannen @DanKulkov @wonjitos @sveta_bay (left to right)

When I started building tiny startups in 2016, I had no idea how to get customers. It took me two years to finally make $1 online. I wish I had this book in my hands. @AlexHormozi explains 4 ways to get people interested in what you have to sell, and it's much easier than I thought when I got started. He also teaches you the right mindset to start the journey. If you're an entrepreneur, especially a developer, read it. "You cannot lose if you do not quit."

Now’s the time to make money online with AI arbitrage. OpenAI released a new image-generation banger, but most people won’t catch on until next year. Here’s what I'd do: 1/ Create a dead simple AI wrapper - Create a 1-feature product: upload a photo to generate images in <studio_ghibli,pixar,simpson> style (any style the model is good at). - Write a landing page your grandma could understand, no jargon, lots of photo examples, simple design. - Use Popcorn Pricing ($5 for 10 photos | $10 for 30 | $15 for 50). Paywall before login. Add an "Offer as a gift" option. 2/ Market to Mainstream - Create a branded TikTok/IG account and crosspost photos of celebrities in <style>. Turn the news into <style>. Turn this new artist's album in <style>. Leverage what the mainstream is talking about and create visuals about it. - Pay influencers on TikTok/IG to promote your app. - Open an affiliate program if it takes off. This is the gold rush. And it’s wide open.

You can ship an iOS + Android app without writing a single line of native code. I used @capacitorjs to push @HabitsGarden to the app stores in 14 days. I have no clue how Swift, Java, or even React Native works. My app is a NextJS project. Capacitor wraps it in a native container for iOS/Android. It just works.

New Zealand is so, so, so nice! My wife and I have been here for 3 weeks and we already want to move. Nature is stunning. There are sheep everywhere. It's quiet AF and the air is pure (PM2.5 <3µg/m³ everywhere). You can surf, ski, mountain bike, trail, or hike pretty much anywhere. It's a little paradise if you like outdoor activities. Next to my Airbnb, there's a 6-meter bridge and I can jump in the river after work. This is life. People are kind and open. I'm not a small-talk person but people make it so normal so I've talked to lots of people! Maybe it's like that in the US/Canada too? New Zealand produces a lot of food like milk, vegetables, and berries. It's easy to find delicious, organic, and healthy food. My wife & I are looking for a new home after Bali. We rarely have a crush on a place. But New Zealand feels special. Flip side: - Entrepreneur ecosystem is absent (we're South) - It's far from everything

You have no idea how fucking amazing this is. 90% of people don’t act on their ideas. And for the few who do, 90% give up too early. Making $1K/month with little startups built solo is already top 0.1%. The problem is social media only showing you the top 0.1% (the guys making $100K/month) of the top 0.1% (you). Now, people see my tweets because I’ve grown a little audience. But it took me two years to make $1. Two fucking years of complete void. No support from anyone, no traction, nothing but shit feelings crippling every day. “I’m useless”. I pushed through. Hell, I even gave up in 2021 and got a job for a while. But I kept building and eventually everything flipped. Every now and then, I think about the first 5/6 years of entrepreneurship void and I’m filled with bliss because none of what happened recently could have been possible without the pain and failures. If you’re building, you’re fucking awesome. And don’t give up, because it’s all worth it in the end.
Lately I've been feeling a sense of failure, burnout, and emptiness. My two main products (blawgy and foodbuddy) both make some fun money (blawgy at ~$600/mo, foodbuddy at $150/mo). Just two weeks ago I signed a contract with a F500 on another old project for $10k/yr. When I type that stuff out I agree it's something to be proud of. But I live in Denver and am at the stage in my life where I want to have a family. I need about 10x the profit I'm making now to sustain my lifestyle. Frankly, it feels unattainable. But as I type that, I hear another voice in my head that says I just need to work harder. I'm not really sure what to do at this point. Is me not giving up what will lead me to success? Or is some form of acceptance with a new approach the wiser option?

Yes, you can grow a startup with 0 followers and $0. This is how I get 300 visitors a day from Google, for free, using programmatic SEO ↓

Some context about the place: - We could hear every step from the upstairs neighbor. - The dishwasher broke because of a thunderstorm; I spent 2 hours with the host trying to fix it. - The fire alarm went off in the middle of the night. - The WiFi was only 3 Mbps with a 100 ms ping, despite assurances it was fast before booking. - The shower clogged every two days. - The host walked through the house with shoes on, leaving it dirty. - The toilet seat was broken. - All the furniture was cheap; the sofa moved when you sat down, and the shower cap didn’t hold, among other issues. The host was responsive and helpful, but some problems, like poor ceiling insulation, couldn't be easily resolved. At $150 per night, the place would have met expectations. Not at $277. I don't know if the refund is covered by Airbnb, the host, or both. I think 50% would have been fair. And I'm not saying if it’s right or wrong, just sharing what happened.

I've given up 2 times in 6 years — but I'm still here. - 2017: I left my GF, country, and friends after spending 1 year building an app with 0 users — thinking I was Mark Zuckerberg. I started smoking again. - 2020: After 4 years as an entrepreneur, 0 successful projects, lived with my parents — my head went crazy, I punched the wall 4 times. I spend the next 4 hours crying in my mum's arms. I restarted the journey in 2021. Every day has been a blessing, whether I made $0 in months at the beginning, or $50K/month now. My 2021 mindset was different from the previous 4 years. 1. I never had uncontrollable outcomes, like money or followers: Instead, I had one tangible goal in mind: How many apps am I going to ship? If no one uses my app, it's still a success. It adds to my collection of apps, like Pokemon cards you'd collect. And if I don't ship, I should have learned something. 2. I observed and imitated like a psycho: How did @dannypostma get LandingFolio #1 ranked on Google? Why is the YouTube video going viral? Why is this tweet from @levelsio getting so many likes? If something is working, there's a reason you can learn from it. 3. I made friends, real friends: Of course, I commented on big X accounts to get engagement. But I also looked at my peers —who, back then, didn't have many followers — and genuinely engaged with nothing at stake. - @nico_jeannen came to my wedding and added $15K of revenue to ShipFast thanks to ads. - @DanKulkov fixed my developer's mind, made me earn 6 figures in 2023, and was my psychiatrist last Tuesday. A few things I wish I had known in 2021: - Don't think past 6 pm - Startups should start as 1 feature - Ditch free plans and get paid for your work - Your headline does 80% of the sales process - Lack of sleep is the cause of most bad emotions

Try this: + Throw out every unhealthy snack in your house. + Delete Uber Eats. + Don’t eat out. + Set a bedtime alarm (yes, even on weekends). + Turn off your phone before bed. + Don’t turn it back on before midday the next day. + Wake up. Look in the mirror. Smile big and say: “Today is going to be freaking awesome.” + Move your body for 30 minutes (run, gym, home workout, doesn’t matter). + Walk 10K steps a day. Bonus: 3K right after eating. The first 3 days will suck. The next 30 years won't.

I was a virgin, an hour ago. I've never blocked anyone after 3 years on Twitter. But my feed in the past 30 days is made of developers who think the world can be fixed with more tests. Dozens of people try to screw my sites every day. And they claim a CRITICAL VULNERABILITY ISSUE because they could bypass a paywall or add a special character to their username 👏 So fuck it. I blocked people who yap instead of shipping. I want to see posts of indie makers who build and print money. KEEP SHIPPING 🔥🚀

That's why so few entrepreneurs succeed. You need: - To show up - To show up every day - To show up every day even if you fail - To show up every day even if you fail and nobody supports you - To show up every day even if you fail and nobody supports you for years

I built 24 startups in 3 years. - I don't plan - I don't do calls - I don't drink alcohol - I don't do small talks - I don't sacrifice my sleep - I don't use productivity apps - I don't change my tech stack - I don't check my phone before 4 pm I sit at my desk every day and ship. Less is more.

I can’t sleep. AI has made us hyper-creative and hyper-productive. 100 startup ideas are running through my mind, and I can build all of them in 24 hours. In 10 years, the world will look back and realize how lucky we were to discover this tech. There’s never been a better time to start. Just ship it.

You might not realize it, but if you've built a tiny startup, you're already ahead of the 99%. Make $1 online, and you're employable by any great company.

SaaS is the worst business to start entrepreneurship. You need to deliver so much value + build insane trust + solve a painful problem—it's like playing a new game in hardcore mode. Instead, start with: - A blog - A book - An agency - A free tool - A directory - A newsletter - A community - A marketplace - A one-time payment product You'll discover real problems while building trust with your market. Then, build the SaaS.
