How do you balance building vs marketing when you're solo? I'm great at code. Terrible at content. But I know building in public is how indie products grow. So I'm building @ShipStory to solve my own problem. Anyone else struggle with this?
Launched @shipstoryapp waitlist 2 days ago. Day 1: 7 signups, I felt like a genius Day 2: 1 new signups, I felt like I missed something Reality check: I was only reaching my 100 followers. That's my entire audience. Yesterday I remembered @JanarJurisson mentioned @IndieWait .…
Day 5/5 - Engagement Rate has fallen heavily compared to recent days but is still above 10%
Day 4/4 - Engagement Rate The daily goal of 10% engagement rate reached again. I love this community so much
Published my waitlist yesterday for ShipStory (turns git commits → tweets for devs). Results after 24h: • 8 signups • 108 followers Today I did something that felt completely wrong: I stopped building the frontend entirely. Here's why that might be the smartest move I've…
It's always the same. You learn most of the important things along the way, while you're building something. As the saying goes, “The journey is the destination”
I can build the product ✅ I can't market the product ❌ Got 8 waitlist signups for ShipStory and realized I have no idea what I'm doing with marketing 😂 When did you start learning marketing? Before building? During? After? Currently learning on the fly and it shows
ShipStory waitlist: 24h later 8 signups and I'm still surprised anyone cares 😅 Back to building today - these people need an actual product Also finally learning marketing properly (about time) Will share visuals as I build the frontend Stay tuned 🚀 Join the waitlist:…
Since I decided to build a waitlist I fell back into every old habit: - Code in silence ✓ - Skip the updates ✓ - Forget people exist ✓ - Surface a few days later with "it's done" ✓ But it IS done. And I'm hyped. Only a few people get the idea yet. Growth is slow. But the…
I need to share this with someone Two weeks ago: Celebrated hitting 50 followers Today: Hit 100 followers AND launched the ShipStory waitlist 12 hours live and 7 people signed up I genuinely didn't expect anyone to care 😭 Honestly overwhelmed right now This whole building in…
Day 4/4 - Engagement Rate The daily goal of 10% engagement rate reached again. I love this community so much
Day 3/3 - Engagement Rate The day is almost over and i'm happy with the results for X
I've mentioned a few times that I no longer want to focus on followers, but instead on the engagement rate. But I'm still happy about it and looking forward to reaching the next milestone of 100 soon.
I found the next one with a similar idea to my ShipStory! Every time I find someone, I get excited and curious to see how the others will implemented it. I'm a big fan of competition🤝
Your GitHub is impressive but nobody knows you exist That's the problem every developer I know wants to build a personal brand on X but they all say the same thing: I don't have time to think of content I don't know what to post I post once a week and get 4 likes so they…
I just cut my AI API costs by 90% 🤯 ShipStory generates tweet drafts using Claude's API. Every time I call it, I was paying for the SAME system prompt. Then I discovered prompt caching. Now Claude caches the static instructions. First call: pays full price Every call after:…
Sooo, enough about my waitlist today! It was already a bit too much for me. Now back to focusing on the important things -push the mvp!
I've been building in text mode Talking about features Explaining the vision Describing the product But building in public works better when people can SEE what you're making Frontend phase starts now 🎨 Less "I'm building X" More "Here's what X looks like" Screenshots,…
What's your commit message style? People keep asking: "How do I get the most out of ShipStory?" Answer: It starts with your commits If you write: ❌ "saved" ❌ "fix" ❌ "updated" AI can't transform that into anything useful If you write: ✅ feat: add user authentication ✅…
