Who on X does the best App Store screenshots for $300-500?


What B2C app founders show: ~$10,000/mo 🚀 What they don’t show: UGC creator payouts, influencer contracts, paid ad costs 🥲 (missing is an extra $800 from TT ads, $300 from ASA)

I was searching for a UGC marketplace today to hire a few folks for use in paid ad content and am shocked at what these creators are charging on these marketplaces like Billo. $814 for a single video with Meta Ads/TikTok Spark code. Some options are $400-500, but still. Insane.

Highly recommend adding @posthog to your mobile app onboarding flow so that you can pinpoint bottlenecks and major drop off points. In the past 7 days, I lost nearly 20% of installs based on first two steps of onboarding. Looks like I need to add optional/skip buttons...😅

Results after adding this shortcut action to my app for sending feedback email: 1). 90%+ of emails about it either being too expensive, they didn’t expect to have to pay, wanted it for free, etc 2). 10% is useful feedback for features that were missing & I’ve since incorporated

I really believe more people in consumer apps need to run paid ads before spending months figuring out an organic/UGC approach. Honestly wish that I got started on it sooner. Faster product validation -> user feedback -> PMF -> feature/pricing gaps -> creative performance.

Almost to $700 MRR 🙌 70% to $1K MRR goal. Still from just 3 apps, haven’t launched a new one in months (mid Feb). Planning to launch a 4th app in the coming weeks. I’ve also started a small cash account to give myself another chance at small cap trading. Taking it slow!

$500 MRR ☑️ It ain’t much, but it’s honest work 💪 I also ran my first TikTok ads campaign over the weekend - $20 spent for 40 downloads & 10 trial starts (25% CVR). Based on my historical trial -> paid rate, I should net 5x+ ROA. Hired two UGC creators today as well 🚀🤘
