When
I
heard
about
this
app
idea
I
could
not
believe
my
eyes
Hands
down
one
of
the
simplest
ideas
I've
ever
seen
on
this
channel
And
yet
it
makes
over
50
000
a
month
I
launched
at
the
end
of
2025
and
went
from
zero
to
50
000
a
month
in
four
months
This
is
Jake
He's
24
And
he
saw
a
problem
that
almost
everyone
has
So
he
decided
to
build
an
app
to
solve
it
And
a
few
months
later
that
app
has
been
downloaded
over
200
000
times
Building
doesn't
really
matter
so
much
What
really
matters
is
marketing
And
so
I
prioritized
that
over
everything
I
asked
Jake
to
come
out
of
the
channel
to
break
it
all
down
And
in
this
episode
we'll
dive
into
the
insanely
simple
app
idea
and
why
it
works
how
he
went
from
zero
to
over
50
000
a
month
in
just
four
months
And
the
only
two
things
that
matter
if
you
want
to
build
a
successful
app
All
right
let's
dive
in
I'm
Pat
Walls
and
this
is
Starter
Story
All
right
Jake
welcome
to
Starter
Story
Tell
me
about
who
you
are
what
app
you
built
and
what's
your
story
Hey
Pat
Thanks
for
having
me
on
My
name
is
Jake
and
I
built
an
app
that
does
over
50
000
in
revenue
per
month
I
launched
at
the
end
of
2025
and
went
from
zero
to
50
000
a
month
in
four
months
I'm
excited
to
share
more
about
how
I
came
up
with
and
validated
the
idea
how
I
grew
it
to
over
50
000
per
month
and
share
my
overall
framework
for
building
and
growing
apps
solo
OK
cool
All
right
Well
congratulations
This
is
amazing
growth
And
I'm
super
excited
to
get
into
what
you
built
how
you
got
the
idea
all
that
But
first
show
me
what
app
you
built
Show
me
some
of
your
revenue
screenshots
I
want
to
see
this
is
legit
And
I
want
to
see
really
I'm
curious
what
you
built
Yes
So
the
app
is
called
Early
Helps
you
wake
up
early
It's
an
alarm
clock
app
And
sort
of
the
one
liner
is
push
ups
to
turn
off
your
alarm
It's
that
simple
That's
the
main
thing
that
we
push
through
through
all
of
our
marketing
That's
sort
of
the
novel
aspect
added
on
to
the
alarm
app
This
is
the
last
28
days
of
sales
a
little
over
50
000
first
time
downloads
a
little
over
50
000
downloads
in
the
last
30
days
And
in
2026
we've
done
a
little
over
200
000
downloads
Pretty
standard
app
pricing
model
free
trial
And
then
twenty
nine
ninety
nine
a
year
or
nine
a
month
OK
awesome
This
is
amazing
It's
basically
an
alarm
clock
app
Super
cool
Doing
50
000
a
month
really
quickly
This
is
just
crazy
numbers
So
we're
going
to
get
all
into
that
how
you
came
up
with
this
idea
how
you
built
it
and
how
you
grew
it
I'm
excited
But
before
we
do
what's
your
background
Do
you
have
a
background
coding
up
apps
How
do
you
get
to
this
place
where
you
have
a
50
000
per
month
iPhone
app
I
actually
went
to
school
for
accounting
I
did
a
four
years
undergrad
in
the
year
for
my
master's
I
got
my
CPA
and
I
worked
in
public
accounting
in
a
big
four
firm
for
a
little
over
a
year
But
I've
been
coding
I'm
self
taught
like
the
last
four
years
or
so
Had
some
other
businesses
in
the
past
Nothing
really
worked
I
realized
through
all
these
failures
that
marketing
is
the
most
important
thing
I
started
focusing
on
building
an
app
as
quickly
as
possible
That's
all
the
painful
problem
in
a
simple
way
And
then
following
these
models
that
a
lot
of
these
other
apps
are
using
like
influencer
marketing
is
the
one
that
I
picked
It's
proven
to
work
And
yeah
OK
Jake's
app
idea
is
so
insanely
simple
And
this
is
why
I
love
it
This
is
the
real
secret
He
did
not
build
something
complicated
Instead
he
found
a
painful
problem
and
built
a
dead
simple
solution
around
it
These
are
my
favorite
kinds
of
app
ideas
And
there
are
way
more
of
them
out
there
than
you
might
think
And
I
want
to
prove
this
This
is
why
I
put
together
this
free
database
of
over
30
successful
mobile
app
ideas
inside
this
database
You
will
find
real
revenue
numbers
starting
costs
tech
stack
everything
you
want
to
know
about
what
it
takes
to
build
these
The
goal
isn't
that
you
just
go
and
copy
these
The
goal
is
that
you
do
your
research
get
inspired
and
maybe
even
spark
your
next
app
idea
If
you
are
ready
to
start
building
just
head
to
the
first
link
in
the
description
and
you
can
grab
this
database
100
percent
for
free
All
right
let's
get
back
to
the
episode
OK
amazing
I
mean
what
I
love
about
this
is
that
you
didn't
have
like
a
crazy
software
technical
background
You're
kind
of
hacking
away
at
stuff
But
what
you
went
to
school
for
was
accounting
You
were
doing
some
accounting
work
but
now
you
have
this
app
It's
crushing
it
So
I
think
one
important
thing
is
just
the
idea
itself
This
idea
that
you
had
where
it's
an
alarm
clock
that
makes
you
do
pushups
or
makes
you
do
something
is
a
really
cool
idea
So
I'm
curious
how
did
you
actually
find
this
idea
How
did
you
know
it
was
something
that
could
potentially
make
50
000
a
month
month
So
I
was
having
trouble
myself
waking
up
early
and
I
started
texting
my
friend
the
night
before
like
hey
I'm
going
to
send
you
a
video
of
me
doing
pushups
by
6
a
m
tomorrow
And
that
was
to
hold
me
accountable
And
so
every
night
I
would
send
that
text
before
Just
held
me
accountable
It
was
great
And
at
that
time
a
lot
of
other
apps
were
doing
well
And
I
saw
a
lot
of
people
on
Twitter
sort
of
doing
well
with
apps
And
I
was
at
a
point
where
I
was
sort
of
brainstorming
my
next
idea
and
decided
this
would
probably
be
a
great
idea
The
MVP
the
initial
scope
of
the
project
was
just
an
accountability
app
So
there
was
no
alarm
feature
whatsoever
I
built
the
app
in
three
weeks
and
then
I
realized
I
didn't
know
how
to
market
I
thought
influencer
marketing
could
kind
of
maybe
work
with
it
but
it
wasn't
too
viral
of
an
idea
So
I
took
a
whole
day
just
to
kind
of
walk
think
about
it
right
in
the
direction
I
was
going
to
take
And
I
had
a
few
paths
and
decided
on
the
alarm
feature
This
was
right
before
iOS
26
came
out
And
iOS
26
allowed
you
to
connect
your
app
to
the
native
alarm
system
on
iPhone
using
Alarm
Kit
API
So
you
could
build
a
real
alarm
app
Up
until
this
point
there
were
a
lot
of
other
alarm
apps
out
there
but
they
were
sort
of
gimmicky
and
not
reliable
because
they
use
different
like
app
sounds
and
workarounds
to
make
the
quote
unquote
alarm
So
now
this
is
possible
with
the
Alarm
Kit
API
I
figured
it
would
be
a
good
idea
I
love
this
that
you
mentioned
this
here
is
that
like
it's
a
little
bit
of
luck
and
timing
involved
here
is
that
like
before
alarm
apps
couldn't
be
useful
because
they
weren't
100
percent
reliable
That's
really
important
for
an
alarm
app
But
you
had
already
shipped
this
thing
this
kind
of
like
fun
accountability
idea
that
was
like
a
kind
of
a
little
bit
of
a
gimmick
thing
that
you're
doing
with
your
friend
You
didn't
really
have
any
reason
to
ship
that
other
than
hey
hey
this
could
be
cool
if
this
existed
as
an
app
You
had
that
kind
of
early
app
version
And
then
you
had
this
kind
of
come
to
Jesus
moment
where
you
realized
that
oh
these
alarm
apps
can
actually
get
better
These
two
things
came
together
Let's
talk
about
how
you
actually
learned
to
build
something
like
this
I
know
it's
not
the
most
complex
app
in
the
world
but
still
it's
pretty
legit
Can
you
give
me
an
overview
of
how
long
it
took
you
to
build
it
and
how
you
built
it
Yeah
so
it
took
about
19
days
from
my
first
commit
to
live
on
the
App
Store
I
was
just
getting
the
MVP
out
as
quick
as
possible
It
actually
went
out
without
the
alarm
feature
funny
enough
It
was
just
sort
of
an
accountability
app
to
log
your
wake
up
You'd
set
the
goal
the
night
before
The
alarm
feature
went
live
about
another
19
days
after
it
was
on
the
App
Store
So
it
took
a
little
over
a
month
And
then
I
knew
I
could
build
the
product
but
I
didn't
know
if
I
knew
how
to
market
it
So
my
framework
here
was
just
ship
fast
validate
the
idea
as
fast
as
possible
But
I
wasn't
sure
if
I
could
get
views
And
I
feel
like
that's
sort
of
the
most
important
thing
Building
doesn't
really
matter
so
much
You
got
to
build
a
good
product
of
course
course
But
getting
views
is
more
of
the
unknown
I
started
marketing
as
fast
as
possible
My
first
influencer
video
went
live
seven
days
later
I
saw
people
purchased
from
that
video
And
at
that
point
I
knew
the
idea
was
validated
And
I
went
to
try
and
scale
it
more
I
did
my
first
1
000
in
revenue
three
weeks
after
the
first
influencer
video
went
up
And
then
first
30K
month
in
month
three
and
first
50K
month
in
month
four
Yeah
I
mean
I
agree
with
that
is
that
in
this
AI
world
where
you
can
build
anything
now
and
you
don't
really
have
to
be
even
that
technical
it's
quite
easy
to
build
stuff
And
your
focus
on
views
was
really
really
like
that
And
that's
a
good
way
to
think
about
it
Before
we
get
into
the
growth
and
how
you
did
distribution
maybe
there's
not
really
like
a
framework
on
how
to
come
up
with
great
ideas
It's
like
ship
stuff
and
think
kind
of
like
you
did
So
for
anyone
watching
this
what
would
be
your
advice
for
people
They're
looking
for
an
idea
like
this
something
that
can
make
50
000
a
month
which
is
like
an
app
you
can
build
What
advice
would
you
have
for
people
watching
this
that
want
to
do
the
same
as
you
Yeah
my
framework
at
this
point
is
just
solve
a
painful
problem
in
a
simple
way
and
it
should
be
inherently
viral
If
it's
not
inherently
viral
the
idea
itself
then
add
some
sort
of
novel
aspect
to
it
to
make
it
inherently
viral
With
AI
there's
so
much
that's
possible
If
it's
painful
people
will
pay
And
if
it's
simple
it's
easy
to
show
the
value
in
content
very
quickly
If
it's
something
that's
going
through
your
head
at
least
once
a
day
it's
probably
a
really
painful
problem
that
you
really
want
to
solve
And
you're
actively
looking
even
if
you
don't
know
that
you're
looking
for
a
solution
for
it
If
the
solution
shows
up
you're
going
to
jump
on
it
In
In
college
my
roommate
and
I
would
talk
every
single
night
about
how
we
were
going
to
go
to
sleep
early
and
how
we're
going
to
wake
up
early
the
next
day
It
was
just
constant
Every
single
day
it
was
something
that
we
would
talk
about
Also
this
is
after
the
fact
but
whenever
I
talk
about
the
app
with
people
or
I
show
them
they
either
say
oh
I
need
this
or
I
don't
need
this
but
my
friend
needs
this
or
my
girlfriend
needs
this
Someone
in
their
life
needs
it
It's
pretty
much
every
single
time
So
it's
just
a
very
painful
problem
I
agree
with
the
painful
thing
We've
talked
about
that
a
lot
on
the
channel
but
a
thing
that
I
love
about
this
too
is
the
second
point
was
that
it's
simple
Go
back
into
the
Starter
Story
channel
right
now
if
you're
watching
this
and
look
at
all
the
successful
apps
from
people
that
we
interviewed
just
like
you
Every
app
is
simple
Sometimes
it's
just
one
main
killer
feature
This
is
a
very
common
thing
across
a
lot
of
the
successful
apps
and
the
fast
growing
ones
like
yours
Simple
makes
it
easier
to
focus
on
distribution
and
growth
and
that's
the
next
topic
that
I
want
to
get
into
is
how
did
you
actually
grow
this
thing
I'm
sure
there's
1
000
alarm
clock
apps
on
the
App
Store
right
now
and
you're
growing
every
single
day
but
yours
stood
out
So
how'd
you
do
that
How'd
you
go
from
zero
to
50
000
per
month
I
started
out
by
finding
influencers
on
TikTok
and
Instagram
just
reaching
out
sending
a
ton
of
DMs
Early
on
it's
a
tough
start
You
get
very
few
responses
and
I
was
trying
to
find
people
who
were
doing
day
in
the
life
or
lifestyle
content
where
I
thought
the
app
could
fit
in
naturally
That
was
a
big
thing
for
me
was
it
fit
in
naturally
It
was
a
really
good
sell
to
the
influencer
They
could
continue
making
their
existing
videos
except
they
would
get
paid
for
it
A
lot
of
times
with
influencer
marketing
it
comes
off
as
too
much
of
an
ad
and
so
the
influencer
needs
a
lot
more
money
and
a
lot
of
a
reason
It
needs
to
be
a
very
compelling
offer
for
them
to
want
to
pick
up
a
spot
on
their
page
But
if
you
find
people
that
are
already
doing
content
where
your
app
fits
perfectly
like
an
alarm
they
wake
up
in
their
day
in
the
life
videos
and
then
push
ups
which
is
inherently
viral
and
intriguing
as
the
viewer
then
they're
more
willing
to
fit
it
into
their
videos
I
mean
I
feel
like
influencer
marketing
there's
so
many
ways
to
do
it
It's
a
very
broad
category
So
it'd
be
cool
if
you
could
show
me
one
of
the
videos
that
did
particularly
well
for
you
that
got
a
lot
of
views
and
converted
to
a
lot
of
signups
Would
you
be
able
to
share
one
of
those
with
me
Yeah
so
here's
a
perfect
example
video
A
POV
day
in
the
life
of
a
college
student
wakes
up
shows
the
alarm
going
off
shows
the
push
ups
and
then
in
the
app
it's
analyzing
and
then
it
turns
into
a
green
check
and
says
alarm
turned
off
It's
super
subtle
super
natural
and
I
sort
of
view
it
and
sort
of
when
I
sell
it
to
the
influencer
it's
like
a
win
win
win
They
get
to
continue
making
their
videos
and
get
paid
for
it
I
get
downloads
for
the
app
and
the
viewer
gets
a
solution
to
a
problem
that
they're
having
without
really
watching
an
ad
Like
it
just
fits
in
so
naturally
And
then
pretty
much
every
single
video
if
it's
shown
well
will
result
in
a
comment
like
what's
the
app
name
And
then
they
just
respond
below
early
on
the
app
store
Generally
they
pin
the
comment
on
Instagram
I
love
that
example
because
in
that
video
specifically
it
shows
off
your
app
right
away
And
then
it
just
feels
natural
It
feels
like
a
day
in
the
life
video
If
you
like
this
influencer
or
you
like
their
life
or
their
lifestyle
you
might
want
to
try
that
out
too
so
you
can
live
a
day
in
the
life
like
that
So
I
think
that's
great
A
video
like
that
what
is
the
deal
structure
For
people
watching
this
they're
probably
wondering
how
much
do
I
got
to
pay
for
something
like
that
How
many
downloads
does
this
turn
into
Can
you
give
me
some
of
the
numbers
behind
a
video
like
that
Yeah
generally
the
deal
structure
is
multiple
videos
a
month
like
two
to
four
videos
a
month
But
the
view
guarantee
that's
sort
of
the
most
important
part
is
that
you're
paying
for
the
views
that
you
get
And
so
I
view
it
as
pretty
low
risk
honestly
You
can
sort
of
cap
what
you're
going
to
pay
and
take
the
risk
and
then
see
what
the
return
is
Pretty
quickly
once
the
video
goes
live
it
takes
about
a
day
to
sort
of
hit
the
peak
on
views
and
then
you
see
what
your
returns
are
Generally
paying
around
like
2
to
3
CPM
based
on
the
view
guarantee
And
then
the
money's
really
made
on
those
big
videos
It's
sort
of
power
law
A
lot
of
videos
will
sort
of
do
okay
Every
once
in
a
while
you
get
a
big
one
million
you
get
two
million
five
million
view
video
and
that's
where
you
really
make
money
Okay
so
I'm
curious
for
a
video
like
that
are
you
able
to
track
how
many
sales
that
leads
to
Because
I
noticed
that
it's
in
the
comments
and
someone
we
chatted
with
someone
just
recently
said
conversions
happen
in
the
comments
But
I
imagine
some
people
just
are
searching
for
your
app
and
it's
not
trackable
So
how
would
you
track
something
like
that
Use
any
tools
for
that
Or
how
do
you
approach
that
Yeah
it's
extremely
difficult
to
measure
with
influence
from
marketing
I
recommend
staying
super
simple
just
track
views
and
measure
spikes
is
sort
of
the
approach
that
I
take
So
I'll
track
all
the
videos
and
I
have
historical
data
And
then
when
a
spike
happens
can
be
pretty
sure
that
that
video
resulted
in
what
you're
seeing
if
you
see
a
spike
in
views
along
with
a
spike
in
conversions
And
so
I
sort
of
take
that
approach
I
view
it
as
sort
of
like
a
black
box
put
in
5K
and
you
get
out
10
that
worked
You
don't
know
exactly
who
generated
the
most
profit
but
if
you
see
a
spike
you
can
be
reasonably
sure
that
that
video
was
driving
that
and
then
you
can
sort
of
measure
But
ultimately
you're
gonna
lose
money
on
individual
creators
and
you
probably
won't
know
who
it's
just
inevitable
All
right
let's
switch
topics
a
little
bit
and
talk
about
how
you
run
this
thing
and
what
tools
you
use
I
know
you're
kind
of
a
one
man
show
here
built
this
app
did
a
lot
of
the
marketing
in
the
beginning
What
are
all
the
tools
What's
your
whole
stack
to
run
an
app
that
makes
50
000
a
month
like
this
Yeah
solo
founder
I
have
helped
now
I
think
it's
inevitable
In
terms
of
running
everything
I
use
Firebase
for
the
database
authentication
and
cloud
functions
within
the
app
Superwall
for
paywall
and
subscription
management
I
use
OpenAI
for
AI
API
I
use
Mixpanel
for
in
app
analytics
And
of
course
Cloud
Code
the
absolute
best
tool
for
actually
building
the
app
And
then
for
marketing
Crowee
for
influencer
tracking
and
payments
Sideshift
for
UGC
creator
sourcing
tracking
and
payments
Instantly
for
emails
this
is
great
for
sending
out
mass
emails
for
influencer
outreach
Cal
for
booking
meetings
Agreed
for
contracts
and
then
Google
Sheets
I
feel
like
I
have
to
mention
sort
of
run
everything
through
that
And
then
just
general
business
tools
I
use
QuickBooks
for
accounting
keeps
everything
super
clean
And
then
1Password
for
password
manager
on
a
personal
note
absolute
life
changer
could
not
recommend
any
more
to
set
up
1Password
All
right
thanks
for
sharing
that
awesome
tech
stack
I'd
love
if
you
gave
me
a
demo
of
your
app
It's
a
super
cool
idea
So
I'd
love
if
you
could
just
show
me
how
it
works
works
and
what
it
actually
looks
like
Can
you
show
me
your
push
up
alarm
clock
app
that
makes
50
000
a
month
Yeah
so
super
simple
You
just
create
an
alarm
set
the
time
set
it
for
every
day
choose
a
mission
push
ups
and
then
I
like
the
birds
sound
save
the
alarm
The
alarm
goes
off
when
you
open
the
app
It
asks
you
to
do
push
ups
just
click
start
And
then
it
analyzes
and
it
says
alarm
turned
off
You
can't
fake
it
say
I
did
push
ups
It
actually
I
wasn't
able
to
see
it
but
I'm
guessing
that
it
did
some
sort
of
analysis
Yeah
yeah
like
the
video
and
then
make
sure
you
actually
did
push
ups
Well
that's
it
That's
what
I
love
about
this
app
What
you
built
it's
simple
I
have
to
wake
up
and
do
push
ups
It
doesn't
need
a
thousand
features
It's
awesome
and
it's
making
50
000
a
month
That's
amazing
Last
question
that
I
wanted
to
ask
you
that
we
ask
all
founders
to
come
on
Starter
Story
If
you
go
back
in
time
when
you
were
working
your
accounting
job
or
when
you
were
just
in
college
thinking
about
building
apps
what
advice
would
you
give
to
young
Jake
or
what
advice
would
you
give
to
people
watching
this
that
want
to
build
an
app
like
you
Focus
on
top
of
funnel
only
That
is
the
most
valuable
skill
right
now
is
marketing
There's
so
many
people
that
can
build
an
app
and
it's
so
easy
with
AI
but
there's
not
so
many
people
that
know
how
to
market
and
know
how
to
get
views
And
if
nobody
knows
about
your
app
it
doesn't
exist
You
can
build
as
many
features
as
you
want
When
you're
building
an
app
solo
I
think
it's
extremely
important
that
you
limit
your
scope
and
focus
on
what's
really
important
which
is
solving
a
painful
problem
in
a
simple
way
push
ups
to
turn
off
the
alarm
and
putting
all
your
effort
into
marketing
Thank
you
for
coming
on
Jake
Dude
love
this
what
you
built
It's
super
cool
It
just
goes
to
show
that
yeah
yeah
it's
all
about
distribution
There
are
a
million
alarm
apps
out
there
but
yours
is
making
50
000
a
month
month
because
of
all
this
awesome
stuff
that
you've
been
working
on
So
thanks
for
coming
on
and
sharing
It's
gonna
be
an
inspiration
to
everyone
watching
Thanks
for
having
me
All
right
Gus
producer
of
Starter
Story
What'd
you
think
about
Jake
and
Early
Man
first
of
all
really
cool
idea
That's
one
of
the
reasons
I
wanted
to
bring
him
on
is
because
it's
just
such
a
crazy
simple
idea
Like
alarm
clock
app
crazy
And
then
just
I
liked
his
personality
right
Like
sometimes
we
have
guys
on
here
that
are
like
I
don't
know
feel
like
they're
really
analytical
or
feel
like
they've
kind
of
all
together
and
he
just
kind
of
was
like
I'm
a
normal
dude
I
just
learned
how
to
do
this
You
can
do
it
too
Yeah
One
thing
that
he
touched
on
for
a
second
but
I
actually
thought
it
was
really
interesting
and
might
be
useful
for
people
that
are
watching
this
and
looking
for
business
ideas
is
that
he
mentioned
that
the
API
changed
for
AlarmKit
or
something
like
that
which
is
I'm
guessing
some
sort
of
API
that
Apple
exposes
to
be
able
to
use
their
alarm
functionality
And
then
all
of
a
sudden
this
is
now
you're
seeing
all
these
alarm
apps
I
had
tweeted
about
one
that
he
had
mentioned
and
then
his
came
up
and
I'm
sure
there's
a
bunch
more
This
is
a
little
thing
that
I
think
people
who
are
looking
for
ideas
look
at
changes
to
APIs
that
Apple
or
other
platforms
enable
Usually
there's
a
slew
of
apps
that
will
get
released
when
there
is
a
new
change
in
the
API
when
they
expose
for
example
something
new
in
the
camera
Apple
allowed
you
to
programmatically
do
widgets
or
they
programmatically
do
screen
times
Then
you
have
all
the
screen
blocking
apps
right
So
every
time
there's
a
new
improvement
to
the
API
which
there's
a
lot
nowadays
because
all
these
companies
are
shipping
faster
There
are
thousands
of
business
ideas
that
become
easier
to
build
but
there's
a
short
window
of
time
to
do
it
right
I
think
that's
an
interesting
little
tidbit
And
the
other
thing
I
really
liked
that
he
said
at
the
end
if
you
caught
it
or
if
you're
watching
this
hopefully
you
saw
that
What
did
he
say
He
was
like
focus
on
top
of
funnel
only
You
know
he
said
that
throughout
was
like
views
were
the
only
thing
that
mattered
And
obviously
this
video
was
kind
of
episode
was
kind
of
framed
around
the
idea
and
how
cool
it
is
et
cetera
which
it
is
But
man
every
time
we
talk
to
these
guys
I'm
just
reminded
like
marketing
is
like
the
hardest
thing
but
the
most
important
thing
And
he
was
really
clear
about
that
And
it's
just
yeah
for
someone
like
me
I'm
building
a
few
things
I'm
like
man
maybe
I
should
just
stop
and
just
like
post
on
TikTok
or
whatever
you
know
or
figure
out
the
whatever
he
was
talking
about
with
influencers
Point
being
like
marketing
is
like
the
actual
secret
sauce
to
almost
everybody
that
we
talk
to
Distribution
specifically
video
organic
video
content
creation
or
understanding
of
video
that
performs
in
algorithms
whether
you're
doing
it
yourself
or
you're
hiring
influencers
like
he
did
is
the
number
one
skill
you
can
have
right
now
Building
is
easy
now
or
it's
just
getting
easier
every
single
day
but
creating
content
putting
yourself
out
there
not
only
is
it
hard
but
it's
scary
And
that's
why
it
prevents
a
lot
of
people
from
doing
it
but
it's
the
number
one
skill
you
can
have
Watch
every
single
starter
story
video
Every
single
person
has
that
skill
and
it's
the
biggest
skill
you
can
have
in
the
world
So
hopefully
if
you're
watching
a
starter
story
you'll
realize
that
But
on
that
same
note
you
still
need
an
idea
