    Unrelenting intro

    INTRO 
    Welcome Pierre, you're in the right place! Physician might be slowlane, but it's defintely a great skill to fall back on if needed.

    HOT! CHAT 
    Being in a rush in your twenties can sabotage you. When it's your whole identity to be successful, and you feel the sting of failure, it impacts your whole self worth. This is something I've recently been dealing with, and yes – the 19 year old mega millionaires drip fed to me by Instagram...

    In the same boat. Applying for benefits and searching. Calling around to local takeaways for a food delivery gig. I feel like how MJ described himself in TMF: working high schooler jobs, LOL And hey, keep going. It's a bump in the road and it makes your story (process) much cooler. For...

    Random Chat, Thoughts, Posts, and/or Rants Thread

    HOT! CHAT 
    Instagram right now is designers who are desperate to prove their usefulness. They'll take an AI slop poster and turn it into minimalistic slop. AI posters look shit, but at least they have some colour and flair. Local service businesses have absolutely no clue how to operate AI, so their...

    SIDE HUSTLE SAAS / APPS EXECUTION 
    Which console will you release on? I'm a pretty big nerd in terms of gaming, so glad to help out.

    Second random thought. Tense and rigid thinking, in the form of forcefully trying to find ideas or spot patterns is akin to the fighter which loads up on every punch, looking to get the one punch KO. Free thinking is allowing your mind to become loose. Not everything needs to be solved at...

    Soft validation looked good, hard validation got zero. What would you change or pivot?

    QUESTION 
    Sign-ups are a complete waste of time. There's literally no skin in the game. Another method I love is the fake door test. Act as if the product is live, simulate payment so that their payment bounces, it gets log as an attempted purchase, then let them know stock is low or something. Now...

    Massive, massive amount of "me-too" businesses flowing from the hydration space. Seems like there's a new company every week selling a new powder to pour into your water. IMO - Ironically, the hydration niche is over hydrated.

    The Artificial Intelligence (AI) Random Chat Thread...

    CHAT - AI - 
    Is enshitification happening with GPT, or is it a bug? After like 5 prompts, all my chats say "Memory full, please move to another chat". I have 3 branches of my business chat already. Anyone else getting this?

    My project is up and running, but I haven't made any sales yet.

    MARKETING 
    Meta ads always drove traffic for me - especially since I started to run 3 creatives at once. I'm still experimenting with it and I'm by no means an expert. But you need to solve the landing page first to have any chance of converting people. Use Lovable, implement a meta pixel, and then host...

    The AI Savings Thread, How Much Time and Money has it Saved You?

    CHAT - AI - 
    Inconceivable hours. AI is the modern day assembly line. It's a shame it's only known for shitty posters, but it'll completely replace graphic designers shortly too

    My project is up and running, but I haven't made any sales yet.

    MARKETING 
    Weak landing page - fire up base44 or Claude and build it based on sites that convert. There's no information about the product above the fold, just a sign up page to learn more about the product which is the chief role of the landing page itself. An email newsletter can be presented after...

    Failure is An Asset: My Execution Thread.

    HOT! EXECUTION 
    Too much time wasted in the past chasing novel ideas, which makes everything tougher in the grand scheme of things. I'm back in the idea fishing phase, with a framework in place that prioritises services with an established need, which requires little or no explanation. The goal isn’t to...
