"Just circling back on this invoice!"

You've sent that email 40 times. It never gets less awkward.

PayTrack sends it for you — 7 days before it's due, on the due date, then 3 and 7 days after. Stops the second they pay.

@alexii_9 A is the worst

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

Just bought a new MacBook Pro and Claude Max. How do I build a $1 million app?

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

The hardest part of growing on social media is getting the first 100 or 200 followers.

After you have them everything gets easier.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

Can't wait to hit 100 followers.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

GTA 6 broke Netflix

How do you actually check how many real signups you got last week

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@oldstackjournal Will do 🙏

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

Good morning!

Woke up
Checked my Stripe accounts
Still not a single sale

Anyway, we keep moving.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@uriel_builds @anupamrjp Thank you

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@jason_shen_2000 @solopribuilds Not right now. Since freelancers are doing most of their work at a desktop or on a laptop, a mobile app will not fit for PayTrack right now.

Maybe later a mobile app will be great, but for now only a web version.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

13 more followers until I have 100

If you are new and want to connect follow me and I’ll follow back

Analytics stops at the signup button and everything interesting happens after it

Did they finish on boarding, did they come back on day 2, did they ever touch the feature that makes people pay. No idea. And it's all already sitting in my database

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@Xarlizard Yeah, for one invoice the risk sits with you. That's the trade.

You can see what you're paying for before you pay, and it's a Stripe payment, so you can dispute it. A freelancer pulling that stunt loses the money and the client in the same week.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

You send the files. Then you wait. Then you write the polite reminder.

PayTrack attaches your deliverables to the invoice and keeps them locked. The client pays, the files go out automatically.

First 10 people: 50% off with PAYTRACK50

@alexii_9 Thank you so much. It means a lot

I have a subscription for $19 a month for unlimited invoices and file releases.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@alexii_9 Learned it the expensive way. Built the whole settings screen, shipped it, then actually looked at who opened it. Basically nobody.

PayTrack just fires 3 days before due, day of, then +3 / +7 / +14 now. One switch to turn reminders off entirely. Nobody has asked for more since.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

What is the best marketing strategy you are using?

And why do you use it?

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

Is this data any good?

I only have 2 ads running for one product.

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@Guronnimo Take a loan

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@terencebuilds Exactly this. And the stupid part is it’s all already sitting in my database, I just never look because it means writing a query every time

Do you check yours at all, or is it a blind spot you’ve accepted? Haven’t found anyone yet with an actual system for it

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

I can tell you exactly where every visitor came from. Reddit, X, Google, direct. That part is solved

I cannot tell you what a single one of them did after they made an account. That's the part i actually need

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

Honestly no idea yet, that’s kind of why I’m posting about it

Closest thing I’ve got is that the data already exists in my own database. Signups, purchases, all of it is sitting in mongo. I just never look at it because it means writing a query every time

Do you have this problem or have you already solved it? Curious what you’re using

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

@sumersingh999 Interesting idea but I think the UI design does not match the product that well

[Daniel Necula @anywaydani]

What problems does your project solve?

Interesting to see why you build the project.
