I
never
in
my
wildest
imaginations
expect
to
get
numbers
like
this
Meet
Rob
Hallam
a
solo
developer
you've
probably
seen
all
over
X
in
the
last
few
months
But
what
you
might
not
know
about
Rob
is
that
he
wasn't
always
successful
He
failed
for
years
until
he
discovered
one
platform
that
changed
everything
X
I
built
this
entire
business
through
sharing
my
story
on
X
Rob
simply
started
posting
on
X
sharing
the
wins
the
losses
everything
And
to
his
surprise
it
turned
into
followers
users
sales
and
ultimately
a
very
successful
SaaS
business
I
went
viral
first
and
then
got
the
followers
second
Rob
might
be
one
of
the
best
minds
when
it
comes
to
building
in
public
So
I
asked
him
to
come
onto
the
channel
to
break
down
his
story
and
how
he
went
from
zero
to
12
000
a
month
building
on
X
and
posting
content
And
in
this
video
we'll
dive
into
the
insane
opportunity
of
building
in
public
right
now
Rob's
exact
content
system
that
he
uses
every
day
to
grow
on
X
and
his
step
by
step
playbook
on
how
to
build
in
public
and
get
thousands
of
followers
if
he
had
to
start
over
from
scratch
today
Unlike
what
I
thought
was
the
case
it
isn't
about
luck
This
is
one
that
you
can
not
miss
Let's
dive
in
I'm
Pat
Walls
and
this
is
Starter
Story
What's
up
Rob
Welcome
to
the
channel
Tell
me
about
who
you
are
what
you
built
and
what's
your
story
My
name
is
Rob
Hallam
I
built
SuperX
which
is
a
platform
that
helps
you
grow
on
X
the
right
way
I
launched
it
publicly
four
months
ago
And
since
then
we've
gone
from
1
000
to
over
13
000
in
monthly
recurring
revenue
now
growing
at
25
month
over
month
And
the
crazy
thing
is
I
built
the
entire
business
on
X
itself
using
SuperX
to
grow
SuperX
I'm
living
proof
this
system
works
because
I've
gone
from
zero
to
over
34
000
followers
in
just
over
a
year
And
that's
the
playbook
building
in
public
that
I'm
excited
to
share
with
you
today
Rob
I'm
super
excited
to
talk
about
the
build
in
public
You
are
one
of
the
experts
of
build
in
public
I
think
I
follow
you
on
X
What
you
do
is
awesome
We're
going
to
get
all
into
that
but
I
do
want
to
understand
what
is
this
business
that
you
built
Is
it
a
SaaS
Is
it
an
app
Could
you
show
me
your
business
real
quick
and
explain
how
it
works
So
SuperX
is
the
only
tool
that
helps
you
grow
on
X
with
Twitter
the
right
way
We're
the
only
platform
that
shows
you
which
posts
went
viral
why
they
worked
and
then
helps
you
create
versions
to
go
viral
yourself
We're
doing
13
000
a
month
right
now
in
monthly
recurring
revenue
entirely
through
29
a
month
month
subscriptions
And
we
have
about
450
active
subscribers
right
Okay
cool
Super
cool
business
A
lot
of
people
watching
the
channel
want
to
see
that
this
is
a
real
business
that's
making
over
10
000
a
month
Could
you
show
us
some
of
the
analytics
Stripe
or
whatever
you
look
at
on
a
daily
basis
So
this
is
our
Stripe
dashboard
This
is
our
MRR
The
majority
of
it
here
The
rest
is
over
on
Lemon
Squeezy
We
recently
migrated
You
can
see
our
net
volume
since
we
migrated
about
a
month
ago
The
majority
of
our
revenue
is
through
subscriptions
So
our
trial
rate
right
now
is
around
actually
about
30
This
is
adjusted
because
we
recently
migrated
over
from
Stripe
We've
got
about
60
active
trials
right
now
And
our
churn
is
close
to
about
30
as
well
But
we're
trying
to
get
it
down
right
now
Since
I
started
using
SuperX
properly
back
in
about
April
you
can
see
the
majority
of
my
impressions
have
started
to
skyrocket
And
since
then
I've
been
able
to
keep
about
100
000
impressions
a
day
And
this
is
where
95
of
the
traffic
and
most
of
our
users
have
come
from
Since
I
started
posting
about
two
and
a
half
years
ago
I
never
in
my
wildest
imaginations
expect
to
get
numbers
like
this
And
it's
only
really
happened
since
I
started
following
the
data
Before
that
when
I
was
posting
randomly
I
was
getting
as
you
can
see
completely
inconsistent
impressions
And
now
we're
looking
at
about
100
000
impressions
a
day
All
right
cool
Thank
you
for
sharing
all
that
Rob
sharing
all
those
metrics
being
super
transparent
about
that
I
love
that
We're
going
to
get
all
into
the
building
public
thing
but
I
do
have
to
understand
understand
about
your
background
How
do
you
get
into
building
on
X
building
apps
and
making
money
with
an
app
online
What's
your
backstory
I
went
through
the
traditional
route
my
entire
life
I
studied
hard
at
school
Got
a
good
degree
computer
science
from
a
good
university
And
then
I
became
a
software
engineer
And
that
was
until
my
first
employer
laid
me
off
And
with
that
I
decided
I
was
done
with
corporate
And
that's
what
led
me
to
start
my
journey
on
X
back
in
early
2023
Over
the
next
two
and
a
half
years
I
built
and
launched
five
products
that
made
in
total
a
whopping
zero
dollars
And
while
it
sucked
it
taught
me
three
fundamental
things
Firstly
that
distribution
matters
Secondly
that
monetization
matters
from
day
one
And
thirdly
that
you
need
to
focus
on
building
painkillers
not
vitamins
But
the
biggest
thing
of
all
of
it
was
that
through
sharing
the
hard
times
along
with
the
wins
I
built
trust
within
our
community
I
posted
every
single
struggle
and
failure
that
I
had
along
the
way
And
that
is
what
led
me
to
the
breakthrough
Okay
so
the
breakthrough
you
mentioned
This
is
one
of
the
big
reasons
why
I
wanted
to
bring
you
on
the
channel
Rob
is
this
whole
idea
of
building
in
public
Obviously
you
hadn't
created
the
SaaS
yet
SuperX
didn't
even
exist
at
this
point
What
was
that
breakthrough
Tell
me
that
story
What
happened
there
After
I
had
these
five
failures
for
me
money
at
that
point
was
becoming
this
thing
that
was
really
really
scarce
And
I
was
getting
really
really
anxious
I
literally
hadn't
made
any
money
in
over
a
year
So
I
made
this
post
and
it
shared
all
of
my
failures
and
it
blew
up
It
got
about
150
000
views
on
X
And
with
that
came
one
comment
that
said
I
should
start
a
development
agency
using
my
skills
So
with
the
momentum
of
that
initial
post
I
immediately
announced
I
was
starting
this
agency
And
I
got
my
very
very
first
3
000
client
from
that
initial
viral
post
From
there
it
started
to
go
really
really
well
And
the
wildest
part
of
all
of
this
was
that
all
of
these
clients
were
coming
through
X
inbound
to
my
DMs
through
my
viral
posts
I
started
to
post
more
and
more
trying
to
get
more
and
more
clients
and
drive
more
and
more
more
revenue
So
when
I
started
to
get
these
viral
posts
everything
in
my
life
kind
of
felt
like
it
was
clicking
together
because
I
felt
like
what
I'd
seen
others
do
in
the
past
on
X
was
finally
real
and
possible
In
hindsight
that
vulnerability
was
what
made
it
reach
out
to
so
many
people
because
so
many
people
feel
this
way
too
But
I
had
no
process
to
create
this
content
to
drive
in
these
clients
So
I
built
one
And
soon
enough
I
was
using
AI
data
and
analytics
to
systematically
create
viral
content
on
And
through
that
I
was
making
the
most
money
I've
ever
made
in
my
entire
life
And
that
is
when
I
partnered
with
Thibaut
who
is
the
old
co
founder
of
TweetHunter
to
build
SuperX
He'd
acquired
the
SuperX
Chrome
extension
and
I
came
on
to
build
the
SuperX
web
app
with
all
of
my
ideas
merging
the
analytics
and
the
process
to
build
my
dream
X
growth
tool
Okay
so
you
realize
the
power
of
building
public
you
build
this
sort
of
dev
agency
around
it
which
is
amazing
Most
people
would
probably
stop
there
and
be
like
wow
this
is
like
amazing
money
And
this
is
awesome
I
get
to
travel
the
world
and
do
this
But
that
wasn't
enough
for
you
You
wanted
to
take
it
to
the
next
level
So
what
happened
next
At
the
end
of
2024
I
had
a
few
things
going
on
I
had
problems
with
the
employee
that
I'd
hired
I
had
a
relationship
that
was
breaking
down
and
I
realized
that
actually
building
products
for
other
people
was
completely
unfulfilling
In
January
2025
I
made
this
New
Year's
resolution
where
I
decided
I'm
going
to
start
vlogging
That
was
then
when
I
posted
this
post
that
a
lot
of
people
now
know
me
for
I
shared
how
filming
in
public
was
like
and
this
was
while
I
was
at
the
airport
in
Amsterdam
flying
to
Rio
de
Janeiro
And
then
when
I
landed
in
Rio
de
Janeiro
I
opened
my
phone
and
this
post
had
over
million
views
All
of
a
sudden
this
was
like
another
breakthrough
another
viral
post
But
the
scale
to
which
this
went
viral
was
beyond
my
craziest
imaginations
And
the
timing
of
everything
just
made
sense
I'd
started
vlogging
I
closed
down
my
agency
And
this
was
also
when
I
was
starting
to
build
SuperX
But
those
first
seven
months
in
reality
were
absolutely
brutal
I
got
hospitalized
in
Guatemala
with
food
poisoning
A
few
months
later
I
got
hospitalized
again
in
Colombia
And
all
the
time
X
kept
changing
their
API
all
the
time
So
that
was
causing
stability
issues
in
SuperX
And
every
day
I'd
open
my
inbox
and
see
tens
of
messages
saying
that
SuperX
was
down
But
I
kept
building
and
I
kept
posting
And
I
look
back
at
this
now
and
I
realize
that
I
was
incredibly
uncomfortably
vulnerable
at
many
many
times
But
at
the
same
time
if
I
wasn't
as
vulnerable
as
I
have
been
I
don't
think
I
would
have
built
the
audience
I
don't
think
I
would
have
grown
my
SaaS
to
the
numbers
that
we're
doing
now
Nowadays
with
AI
there's
so
much
slop
content
and
people
want
to
follow
people
People
want
to
follow
stories
It's
been
this
way
always
So
if
you
go
on
X
and
you
share
your
story
your
personality
honestly
and
vulnerably
that
is
how
you
build
an
audience
in
2025
So
those
brutal
seven
months
led
up
to
the
launch
in
July
I
posted
this
very
standard
launch
post
that
had
a
screen
recording
of
what
SuperX
does
breakdown
of
what
it
does
etc
I
got
32
000
views
And
on
top
of
that
it
got
26
signups
So
I
set
it
down
in
front
of
my
laptop
I
took
a
selfie
I
posted
it
on
X
And
that
post
got
over
46
000
views
I
think
The
funniest
thing
was
that
although
that
post
wasn't
advertising
what
SuperX
was
that
post
drove
way
more
signups
than
the
initial
launch
post
did
And
thanks
to
that
post
we
added
1
000
in
monthly
recurring
revenue
in
just
24
hours
And
I
took
that
as
a
signal
to
just
keep
going
So
I
started
using
SuperX
to
grow
SuperX
I
used
the
systematic
approach
that
I
built
into
the
product
of
SuperX
to
help
grow
us
on
X
I'd
finally
systemized
my
content
strategy
I
found
what
was
going
viral
It
built
it
I
posted
it
with
my
personality
Then
I
doubled
down
on
the
hits
And
I
killed
what
didn't
work
All
of
it's
organically
through
the
strategy
that
I
just
talked
about
You
don't
need
followers
to
start
You
need
consistency
a
storyline
and
a
system
Look
this
strategy
of
building
in
public
is
not
for
everyone
But
if
you're
willing
to
put
yourself
out
there
and
embrace
the
cringe
the
chances
of
you
building
a
successful
product
I
think
are
going
to
be
a
lot
higher
If
Rob's
story
resonates
with
you
well
I've
got
something
special
that
I
think
you
should
check
out
Inside
Starter
Story
mode
we
go
over
these
17
distribution
channels
that
successful
founders
are
using
today
We
source
all
this
data
from
the
hundreds
of
founders
that
we
talk
to
through
the
YouTube
channel
and
through
Starter
Story
And
just
one
of
these
17
distribution
channels
is
building
in
public
And
we
have
a
bunch
of
modules
on
how
to
build
in
public
And
I
want
to
give
you
all
that
for
free
So
if
you
click
the
link
in
the
description
right
there
you
can
access
our
entire
build
in
public
modules
going
over
not
only
Rob's
but
other
build
in
public
strategies
that
are
used
by
successful
founders
today
building
actual
real
businesses
making
real
revenue
But
this
won't
be
free
forever
As
as
part
of
the
larger
Starter
Story
mode
accelerator
if
you've
built
stuff
and
you're
ready
ready
to
take
it
to
the
next
level
and
focus
on
distribution
and
getting
attention
and
building
audience
and
getting
customers
then
you're
definitely
going
to
want
to
check
this
out
Just
click
the
link
below
in
the
description
But
again
it's
not
going
to
be
free
forever
All
right
let's
get
back
to
the
interview
All
right
Well
thanks
for
sharing
that
Rob
I
think
that's
amazing
That's
one
of
the
real
reasons
I
want
to
bring
you
on
the
channel
is
that
I
genuinely
think
you
are
one
of
the
best
at
building
in
public
I've
been
following
you
for
a
long
time
So
I
think
you
have
a
lot
to
share
And
I'd
love
you
to
actually
share
a
little
bit
more
And
I
know
a
lot
of
people
watching
this
want
to
build
in
public
They
want
to
grow
their
followers
They
know
that
having
an
audience
is
really
really
important
in
this
age
of
A
I
So
my
question
to
you
would
be
if
you
had
to
start
over
right
now
with
no
audience
zero
followers
what
would
be
your
step
by
step
process
to
build
an
audience
like
you
did
So
step
one
is
set
your
foundation
before
you
post
anything
Set
up
your
profile
with
these
three
things
Make
something
friendly
smile
but
post
your
actual
face
and
don't
change
it
often
because
this
is
what
people
are
going
to
associate
with
you
Then
your
bio
You
want
one
clear
sentence
explaining
what
you're
doing
And
importantly
this
is
what
a
lot
of
people
miss
out
is
your
pinned
post
You
want
your
goal
or
your
elevator
pitch
So
in
my
case
it
was
left
my
job
left
my
home
to
live
on
savings
and
try
and
build
my
dream
SaaS
to
10k
a
month
You
want
that
pinned
at
the
top
of
your
profile
This
step
is
crucial
And
this
is
why
it's
step
one
When
people
see
your
content
in
the
feed
and
they
click
on
it
and
they
go
to
your
profile
they
need
to
instantly
understand
what
it
is
you're
doing
what
your
story
is
in
order
for
them
to
want
to
go
and
follow
along
Step
two
is
pick
your
goal
and
commit
to
it
What
so
many
people
try
and
do
is
just
post
on
X
post
without
intention
You
need
to
pick
one
specific
goal
and
then
document
the
process
of
working
toward
it
This
gives
you
consistency
because
people
forget
you
Otherwise
because
the
internet
it
gives
you
a
storyline
because
people
follow
stories
people
follow
journeys
and
it
gives
you
authenticity
because
it
gives
you
the
opportunity
to
through
the
journey
share
the
ups
and
the
downs
And
it
builds
trust
like
crazy
Step
three
is
the
content
loop
This
is
the
framework
that
I
use
that
changed
everything
for
me
And
it's
saying
that
your
content
should
be
four
types
entertaining
educational
inspirational
and
convincing
So
that's
like
selling
your
product
But
the
key
is
that
you
don't
post
them
randomly
You
post
them
with
intention
following
this
loop
Start
with
something
entertaining
This
is
the
viral
post
that
you're
going
for
You
want
to
put
something
funny
something
relatable
maybe
something
vulnerable
The
fun
tool
launch
something
like
that
This
gets
you
engagement
This
gets
you
warmed
up
in
the
algorithm
This
gets
you
the
attention
And
then
you
follow
up
with
the
educational
or
the
selling
Now
that
you
have
the
attention
you
want
to
teach
something
give
some
free
value
or
pitch
your
product
But
importantly
from
a
place
of
goodwill
So
you
say
for
example
here's
how
you
grow
on
X
with
SuperX
And
then
the
final
part
of
the
loop
is
to
turn
it
inspirational
So
at
this
point
you've
probably
got
loads
of
views
Maybe
you've
got
a
few
sales
followers
Take
a
screenshot
of
that
post
it
That
itself
will
potentially
go
viral
But
importantly
if
you
want
to
have
that
impact
you
want
to
share
what
it
means
to
you
This
is
why
I
left
my
job
Moments
like
this
make
it
worth
it
But
write
it
from
the
heart
You
want
people
to
root
for
your
journey
authentically
And
then
once
you're
at
the
end
of
the
loop
rinse
back
to
the
start
and
repeat
This
loop
does
three
things
It
builds
trust
through
authenticity
It
educates
your
audience
so
that
they
see
the
value
that
you
bring
And
it
sells
without
being
annoying
Step
four
is
systemize
what
works
This
is
kind
of
like
my
secret
sauce
if
you
want
to
call
it
that
Don't
guess
what
to
post
Use
data
Go
to
successful
profiles
in
your
niche
Analyze
their
top
performing
posts
So
I
use
the
SuperX
Chrome
extension
for
this
But
you
can
use
whatever
is
comfortable
And
then
identify
the
concept
Importantly
the
concept
not
the
actual
post
that
worked
So
you
want
to
take
that
concept
not
word
for
word
and
then
make
it
in
your
own
style
A
real
example
in
my
case
was
I
used
SuperX
to
analyze
what
was
going
viral
in
my
niche
I
found
the
curse
of
the
tweets
and
algorithm
simulator
were
going
viral
So
I
built
those
features
in
SuperX
I
posted
the
dancing
demo
showing
them
off
And
this
worked
It
was
combining
the
proven
viral
concept
with
my
personality
Step
five
double
down
on
what
works
and
kill
what
doesn't
By
this
point
you're
going
to
have
some
signal
of
what's
working
and
what
isn't
So
you
should
be
tracking
every
single
post's
performance
And
then
you
want
to
find
your
patterns
So
what
format
works
best
For
me
in
my
case
it
was
video
For
you
it
might
be
something
different
What
style
of
posting
resonates
And
then
what
topics
engage
So
in
my
case
it
was
feature
releases
and
authentic
moments
And
then
when
you
find
what
works
make
more
of
it
Double
down
on
what
works
because
the
algorithm
rewards
consistency
And
then
importantly
also
this
is
a
part
that
a
lot
of
people
forget
kill
what
doesn't
even
if
it
went
viral
So
in
my
case
algorithm
simulator
went
viral
but
I
killed
it
from
SuperX
because
it
was
a
feature
that
most
people
didn't
even
use
Step
six
is
build
real
connections
This
is
the
crux
of
it
all
So
far
it
feels
very
cold
and
calculated
But
at
the
end
of
the
day
you
want
to
be
building
real
connections
like
you
build
a
real
community
in
real
life
I
see
a
lot
of
my
audience
and
followers
as
genuine
friends
And
they
are
genuine
friends
I've
met
up
with
them
as
I've
been
traveling
through
the
world
Because
the
important
thing
is
that
growth
isn't
just
through
viral
posts
You
shouldn't
just
be
chasing
virality
assuming
that
you
actually
want
to
build
something
real
You
need
to
build
a
community
through
intentional
engagement
What
most
people
do
wrong
is
they
focus
on
quantity
So
they
use
AI
to
spam
replies
under
hundreds
of
posts
which
is
a
huge
problem
on
X
They'll
say
generic
comments
like
Ah
so
great
Oh
wow
great
post
And
at
the
end
of
the
day
they
get
no
real
connections
built
But
what
actually
works
is
you
want
to
find
people
in
your
niche
in
your
community
that
you
genuinely
want
to
connect
with
and
make
friends
with
And
then
reply
with
real
value
share
your
experience
share
stories
ask
thoughtful
questions
and
stay
consistent
with
the
same
people
Like
building
any
friendship
in
real
life
Show
up
daily
be
yourself
not
a
robot
Finally
step
seven
leverage
what
the
platform
wants
Right
now
X
is
pushing
video
I
don't
know
what
it
will
be
in
the
future
But
video
works
really
well
because
it
keeps
people
on
the
platform
longer
They're
watching
your
video
So
videos
get
more
reach
This
does
change
over
time
So
you
need
to
pay
attention
and
adapt
For
me
when
I
switched
from
text
to
video
format
I
got
10
times
the
reach
of
text
posts
But
the
bottom
line
of
all
of
this
is
that
unlike
what
I
thought
was
the
case
it
isn't
about
luck
It's
about
building
trust
through
consistent
storytelling
systemizing
virality
through
data
and
analytics
and
focusing
on
building
intentional
real
friendships
If
you
do
this
you
won't
need
paid
ads
All
right
well
thank
you
for
sharing
that
amazing
playbook
That
is
truly
amazing
And
I
really
do
believe
that
anybody
can
build
in
public
It's
not
going
to
happen
overnight
but
that
was
really
great
So
thanks
for
sharing
that
I
realize
that
we
haven't
really
talked
too
much
about
the
app
that
you've
built
I
think
a
lot
of
people
watching
might
be
curious
about
like
how
does
this
app
even
work
Would
you
be
able
to
give
me
a
little
bit
of
a
demo
of
SuperX
and
just
show
me
what
it
does
and
how
it
works
When
you
first
sign
up
to
SuperX
you
land
on
the
inspiration
page
This
is
where
we
have
custom
generated
daily
inspiration
So
none
of
these
posts
existed
before
They
were
doing
exactly
what
I
said
in
my
playbook
They
take
what's
going
viral
right
now
pull
in
your
context
and
the
concepts
of
virality
and
make
posts
that
will
go
viral
for
you
The
real
source
of
SuperX
of
course
is
the
Chrome
extension
So
you
can
see
here
I've
navigated
to
my
profile
This
works
on
any
profile
You
can
see
top
posts
easily
like
this
Sort
them
by
impression
likes
etc
It
gives
you
real
data
insights
I
can
see
the
activities
On
estimate
I'm
earning
through
X
And
here
we
can
see
Pat's
as
well
So
you
can
see
that
Pat's
put
top
posts
of
all
time
We've
got
one
here
another
here
and
we
can
sort
through
his
tweets
really
easily
And
we
can
take
the
viral
concepts
from
these
tweets
and
go
and
send
them
into
SuperX
to
help
us
actually
write
the
content
schedule
it
But
the
feature
I
am
the
most
excited
about
is
this
feature
that
I
just
released
which
is
SuperX
Engage
which
helps
you
step
by
step
reply
to
posts
in
your
community
from
people
who
you're
interested
with
And
this
helps
you
actually
craft
those
intentional
connections
that
I
was
talking
about
You
can
reply
on
the
posts
in
X
through
SuperX
and
you
can
track
your
replies
all
in
one
place
Okay
thank
you
for
sharing
that
super
cool
tool
I'm
also
curious
on
a
somewhat
different
note
is
the
tech
stack
behind
this
You
built
all
this
yourself
What
is
your
stack
for
building
and
then
also
marketing
and
how
the
business
runs
My
philosophy
is
you
pick
one
stack
learn
it
deeply
and
ignore
all
of
the
noise
because
too
many
people
spend
way
too
much
time
nowadays
chasing
new
technologies
instead
of
just
shipping
My
essential
stack
is
for
development
I
use
Next
js
Node
js
and
Tailwind
For
databases
I
use
Sqlite
We
use
the
X
API
of
course
which
costs
about
2
000
to
3
000
a
month
We
use
OpenAI
and
Anthropx
Cloud
Sonar
API
which
costs
about
1
000
a
month
We
use
AWS
for
our
servers
which
is
about
200
a
month
Zillow's
Cloud
for
vectorized
embeddings
This
lets
us
do
semantic
similarity
search
on
tweets
tweets
that
costs
about
200
a
month
as
well
For
my
personal
AI
assisted
coding
I
use
Cloud
Code
that
costs
about
200
a
month
month
I
use
Screen
Studio
for
those
head
banging
demos
that
go
viral
that
costs
about
10
a
month
Then
Framer
for
the
landing
page
which
costs
about
10
a
month
And
Stripe
for
payments
which
of
course
is
free
well
excluding
fees
and
PostHog
for
analytics
which
I
think
is
free
Okay
cool
Thanks
for
sharing
that
super
cool
The
last
question
that
we
ask
everyone
who
comes
onto
the
channel
if
you
could
go
back
in
time
to
before
you
were
building
in
public
maybe
even
before
you
had
the
SaaS
what
would
be
your
advice
to
young
Rob
or
your
advice
for
anyone
that's
watching
this
that
wants
to
build
SaaS
and
build
in
public
like
you
First
thing
I
would
say
is
breathe
Second
I
would
say
is
do
things
with
intention
not
with
emotion
Figure
out
what
you
want
cut
out
all
of
the
noise
and
then
do
an
insane
amount
of
volume
with
intention
Fundamentally
take
care
of
yourself
And
if
you
do
all
of
these
things
it's
just
a
matter
of
time
Well
thanks
for
coming
onto
the
channel
Rob
I
think
what
you
did
is
awesome
Thanks
for
sharing
all
the
build
in
public
sauce
that
you
have
I
think
people
are
going
to
really
enjoy
this
If
you
like
this
video
if
you're
watching
this
please
leave
a
comment
If
you
want
to
see
Rob
come
back
on
the
channel
and
go
deeper
into
building
public
I'd
love
to
have
him
back
on
But
thanks
for
coming
on
Rob
Appreciate
you
Pat
Thank
you
I
want
to
thank
Rob
again
for
coming
onto
the
channel
Look
I
know
that
the
whole
build
in
public
thing
may
not
be
the
sexiest
growth
strategy
in
the
world
I
know
that
a
lot
of
people
watching
this
might
be
thinking
well
I
don't
really
want
to
go
and
share
everything
about
my
life
online
But
if
I
were
to
give
advice
for
someone
who's
just
starting
out
who
wants
to
build
something
build
stuff
online
this
is
the
number
one
thing
that
I
have
people
do
Share
what
you're
doing
online
document
what
you're
doing
and
share
your
story
in
this
age
of
AI
where
any
sort
of
app
or
video
or
AI
slop
all
this
stuff
can
be
created
out
of
thin
air
What's
the
thing
that's
actually
going
to
last
Well
it's
audience
it's
distribution
it's
real
human
connection
And
for
bootstrappers
people
who
are
building
side
projects
people
who
are
building
stuff
online
this
may
be
one
of
the
most
important
videos
you've
ever
watched
I
love
building
public
It's
something
I've
done
for
a
really
long
time
I
think
this
is
a
really
important
video
and
I
hope
you
enjoyed
it
If
you're
ready
to
build
something
check
out

Build
I'll
put

Build
where
you
can
come
up
with
your
idea
build
it
and
launch
it
in
just
a
matter
of
weeks
And
then
of
course
focus
on
the
distribution
All
right
guys

it
for
this
episode

hope
you
enjoyed
it
