I'm 24. I work 9-5. As I approach 30, I don't want to end up being a normie stuck in a 9-to-5 job. That's why every evening and weekend, I'm building my SaaS and personal brand. The goal is dead simple: grow my SaaS to $1k MRR while working 9-5 and document every single step.

Hacker Residency is over. I know, I’m a bit late to the party of @HackerResidency summary posts, as I decided to take a short break from social media. But now I’m back baby 😎 May was really transformative for me. And no, it’s not another bullsh*t post of how cool that was. When I say it, I truly mean it. In just 30 days, I became a stronger, more confident, smarter and wiser version of myself. As I turn 25, this is the exact transformation I was looking for. This month helped me to realise 5 things about myself, indie hacking and life. Here they are: 1. Even the most successful entrepreneurs don’t know exactly what works and why. Ofc, over time they get some learnings, experience and leverage, but they still fail sometimes, stress about their revenue and make mistakes. 2. Dedicate at least 6+ months of full focus to one thing to make it work or understand that it won’t work. 3. Clearly understand your ICP, and what you are selling and to whom. 4. My confidence is my unfair advantage. I need to just do things, don’t overthink it and keep pushing, pushing, pushing. Now I’m more confident than I’ve ever been. 5. I love building things, even when I’m gonna have $5m in the bank, I’ll keep building. That’s my thing, and I gotta keep doing it. I’ve realised, that if you want to grow, you need to surround yourself with smarter people. You are the average of your environment. Time to build something great.

Not bad for a 12-hour flight. Thanks to whop’s green recovery, I can officially feel good for the whole day 😅.

Build in public is dead 😵 When you succeed, people copy you. When you’re failing, nobody cares. But today’s Marketing OS guest @jackfriks proves it still works when you do it right. He grew a SaaS to $40K MRR by building in public. New article, today, only for subscribers: themarketingos.io/

We are LIVEEE!

Must-read for all devs who work 9-5 and want to launch a SaaS. Your technical skills can be an advantage even in the AI era.

People talk about “focus switching” when you combine a 9-5 and a side start-up. But when you are building a SaaS after job you are actually LASER FOCUSED on needle-moving activities, because your time and energy are limited. Also, if you are shipping every day even though you don't have enough time and energy, it means you truly want to achieve it, and excuses don't exist for you. Lastly, with a high-income job, you can try more aggressive SaaS marketing, like ads, influencer marketing, hiring someone and be okay with failures. That's my goal, to build a successful online business, while working 9-5, document it and prove that it is possible.

Elitza is one of the most passionate people I know. She has been working hard on her product for years and still puts so much effort into every tiny detail. If that doesn't deserve a product of the day, I don't know what does. If you have a second, please upvote her 🙏

Cooking a new breakdown for Marketing OS this morning. This story is insane, 2 guys went from 0 to $1K MRR in 8 days using LinkedIn. You’ll want to start using LinkedIn after reading it 😅

That's why I like challenges! They make people commit, and achieve things they want to achieve! Francesco is about to win our monthly Content Copilot challenge prize if he commits for 8 more days!

This is why we are building Marketing OS. It's easy to launch a SaaS when you have a huge audience or a budget. But what should you do if you have neither? When @tibo_maker started, his posts were getting 8 likes, yet he grew his SaaS to $30K MRR, here's how: themarketingos.io/p/how-tibo…

Crazy that the exact playbook on how to grow your SaaS from 0 is available for free. Copy-paste it into Claude, ask it to adapt this strategy to your startup, and MRR gonna go brrrrrrr 💸
