John Rush shared an intense moment from his journey. He woke up one morning to 100+ missed calls on his phone. The first message he read was: "We're hacked, everything is down." π±
In that instant, his heart raced, and he jumped straight to his laptop to assess the damage. π»π₯ It was one of those high-stress moments that every entrepreneur dreads.
Part 2:
I wake up in the morning, take my phone and it shows 100+ missed calls.
I unlock the screen and the first message says:
"we're hacked, everything is down."I lose my breath for a second, my pulse jumpt to 200.
I jump and get to my laptop to see the details. x.com/i/web/status/1β¦

Jaisal Rathee shared a surprising tip:
If you want to make $5k/month quickly, SaaS is not the way. Instead, try a productized service like:
Unlimited design π¨
Done-for-you cold outreach βοΈ
Copywriting βοΈ
Customer support π€
Landing page reviews π
MVP in 6 weeks π
These will get you to $5k/month faster than SaaS ever could! πΈ
Unpopular opinion:
Want to make $5k/month super fast?
SaaS is the WORST way π€¦ββοΈ
Launch a productized service!
> Unlimited Design
> DFY Cold Outreach
> Copywriting
> Customer Support
> Landing Page Roasts
> MVP in 6 weeksThe list is endless.
These will get you to $5k/moβ¦ x.com/i/web/status/1β¦

John Rush shared some great advice on how to promote your startup with no followers. π
1. Reddit Subreddits: Share your story in relevant subreddits like r/entrepreneur and r/bootstrappedsaas. π
2. Hackernoon: Write a branded article. Focus on value, not just promotion. π
3. Launchpads: List your startup for free on DevHunt, Product Hunt, etc. π
4. Directories: Use paid (like Betalist) and free directories (like BetaPage) to get listed. π
5. Engage in Discussions: Reply to relevant posts with your tool, but avoid spamming. π¬
6. Sponsor Influencers: Collaborate with small influencers for targeted outreach. π€
7. Sponsor Newsletters: Advertise in small newsletters for better ROI. π§
9. Cold Outreach: Use personalized emails and LinkedIn DMs for effective outreach. π¬
