I added an affiliate program to GenerateAds last week, and one of my affiliates has already made $203 from it!
I guess I need to focus more on affiliates 😄

Seeing users reporting bugs makes me happy
Because it means:
- I have customers
- They use the app
- They care enough to want it to be fixed
Much better than having perfect code with no users

Those ads alone grew my previous startup from $0 to $1,000 MRR
No videos, no fancy design, just a simple static ad
It worked because:
- I knew who the target audience was
- The ad was talking about them and their problems
- I had a good landing page/funnel

The B2B SaaS I sold a month ago was stuck at $100 MRR for almost 8 months
It all changed when I added a proper onboarding
The most important part:
Don’t send users to a basic “signup” page.
It’s boring, and it feels like they’re just giving you their email and will get spammed
👉 Instead, I did:

I A/B tested a shiny new onboarding on my app, where users can jump right in, book a demo call or do a guided tour. It looks better and is smoother than my old one.
I assumed it would improve the conversion rate
Turns out, it performs 70% worse than my old onboarding

But fuck YouTube monetization, I don’t want to delay it more.

A few days ago I noticed Cursor has a "Bug Finder" tab that goes through all your current commits and tells you where possible bugs and issues
(in the tabs next to chat and composer)
And holly shit it's good! A few false positives, but it noticed bugs that would have caused big issues later

I plugged my onboarding into FeedbackWidget.co's API, and now I have a nice dashboard to visualize user's info
100x better than exporting the database into a spreadsheet software.
Love this tiny app!

Lifting is good but I have the cardio fitness of a grandpa because I used not to train cardio + stay static the whole day on laptop
But I HATE training cardio, it's super boring
So I'm starting Muay Thai
- Incredible for cardio
- Super fun
- Meet new people
- Useful for self-defense

A few weeks after launching Talknotes, sales plummeted, and I almost gave up on the app.
But then, I decided to do the opposite of what I was doing until then: Keeping up even when it seemed pointless
