Pay clippers on clips that sell
You sell a course on Whop and pay clippers per 1k views. Some clips pull huge views and zero sales, and you still pay for every view.
podcasters on Whop running clipping campaigns, you're paying for this too
3 days ago I moved my ecom store's payments to @whop.
I was tired of Shopify Payments holding my money while I'm trying to scale.
Set up a custom checkout on Whop in a day.
Running ads the same night.
Today we're at $10k/day with 0 disputes and clean payments.
Goal is $1m/month.
Only thing holding me back now: a 5% reserve on a brand-new account.
The goal is $1M/month in Q4. Halloween season is right here and every dollar of cash flow goes straight back into ads.

time to go mogg on everyone in WhopX without even selling a highticket product
pixar style ads can sell the most boring product in ecom
this 40 second ad for dog joint chews came out of 1 generation
an 11 year old dog narrates it, and the whole story is him trying to get back on the sofa
i gave it the script and 1 photo of the tub, and it built every scene around them
biscuit stays the same dog from the rug to the sofa, which is the part other tools mess up
a 3d studio quotes $10k+ for 40 seconds of character animation like this
everything i used is in 1 doc:
> pixar ads from 1 script and 1 product photo
> the claude prompt that writes the story
> the 1 line that stops your ad getting cut short
> naming your product so scenes build around it
> keeping 1 character the same in every scene
comment "BISCUIT" + rt and i'll send it

X ALGORITHM UPDATE ๐จ
The fresh posts pool I told you about is now LIVE, and X rebuilt the small account boost on the same day (I check the open source algorithm daily with Claude and share updates worth sharing with you)
tl;dr:
- fresh posts pool: off โ ON
- small account boost: up to 1,000 โ up to 50,000 followers
- boost window: 48 hours โ 2 hours
- boost view limit: 1,000 โ 200 home views
- boost winner: highest score โ best like rate
lesson learned: the first 2 hours of every post are now where it's won or lost, so post when your audience is actually online.
full details:
- The fresh posts pool is ON
Last time I said I'd tell you when it goes live. It's live.
Every time someone opens For You, X now pulls up to 200 posts from a pool of new stuff: under 8 likes, under 500 views, up to 2 hours old.
Your post still has to be good enough to get shown. But until now a brand new post with no likes had no lane of its own. Now it does.
- The small account boost now goes up to 50K followers
It used to stop at 1,000. Now any account up to 50,000 followers can get it.
It lifts one fresh original post to around 16th in someone's feed.
- But it only lasts 2 hours
The post has to be under 2 hours old (was 48) and have under 200 views from home feeds (was 1,000).
After that you're on your own.
- The winner is picked by like rate
Before, the highest scoring post won. Now X looks at how many of the people who've seen your post liked it, adds a bit of randomness so brand new posts still get a shot, and picks from the best two.
So the first people who see your post decide a lot.
- Under 1,000 followers? Mixed news
You still get the boost, but now you share it with much bigger accounts, and the window went from 2 days to 2 hours.
- Next thing to watch
X built a new way to find posts similar to what people recently engaged with. It's switched off. If it goes live, posts that stick to a clear topic win. I'll tell you.
