@0x_r4bbit @RoundtableSpace Thanks. Working on it and this to provide https://t.co/m7SNldHR13 a strong focus on security and reliability

[Ari Lerner @auser]

I have high hopes for https://t.co/dQ0RmipNcY (@zeddotdev), but everytime I try it just does not fit into the workflow. I'm always wondering who they are user testing...

Anyone have any positive experiences with it?

I made $600K before 19 selling digital products online.

here's the 40-step system I followed:

1. picked a niche where people were already spending money. not what I was passionate about. what people pay for.

2. searched twitter and reddit for "how do I" and "struggling with" to find real problems people have.

3. made a list of 15 problems I could realistically help solve based on my own experience.

4. checked gumroad to see if products existed in that space. competition means demand.

5. picked the problem I understood best and could explain simply.

6. opened google docs and brain dumped everything I knew about solving it.

7. organized the mess into: problem, why it happens, solution, steps, examples.

8. kept it 20-30 pages. short enough to finish, long enough to be valuable.

9. added screenshots wherever something needed visual clarity.

10. recorded a 15-min loom walking through the main points.

11. made a cover in canva using free templates. took 10 minutes.

12. named it something specific with a clear outcome. not vague guru stuff.

13. created a gumroad account and uploaded everything.

14. wrote a description: what it is, who it's for, what result they get.

15. priced it at $37. low enough for impulse buys, high enough to filter tire kickers.

16. took the first 5 pages of my product and turned it into a free lead magnet.

17. set up beehiiv for free email collection.

18. built a landing page on carrd. headline, bullets, email capture. simple.

19. wrote 5 automated emails in beehiiv. first 3 value, last 2 pitch.

20. created a twitter account about this one specific topic.

21. wrote a bio explaining who I help and what transformation I offer.

22. found 10 accounts in my niche with 30K-100K followers.

23. screenshotted their top 50 tweets and studied the patterns.

24. used claude to generate 40 tweet variations based on those winning formats.

25. mixed content types: quick tips, stories, hot takes, threads, screenshots.

26. scheduled 4 tweets daily using tweethunter. 7am, 12pm, 5pm, 9pm EST.

27. pinned a tweet offering the free guide with a comment CTA.

28. set up auto-DM so commenters get the freebie link instantly.

29. spent 30 mins every morning in my DMs and replies. only real daily work.

30. replied to bigger accounts with actual value, not "great post" nonsense.

31. batched all content creation on sundays. 2 hours max.

32. tracked what tweets hit and made more like those.

33. screenshotted every sale and testimonial for future content.

34. posted proof consistently. nothing sells like receipts.

35. raised the price $10 every 25 sales. same product, more perceived value.

36. added bonuses based on customer questions. templates, checklists, quick videos.

37. stayed consistent even when growth felt slow. momentum builds invisibly.

38. ignored people who said it wouldn't work. they're still at zero.

39. reinvested early profits into better tools and more content.

40. repeated what worked and cut what didn't.

**what I used:**

- tweethunter: $49/mo
- beehiiv: free
- gumroad: 10% per sale
- carrd: $19/year
- canva: free
- loom: free

**the timeline:**

week 1-2: $200
month 1: $1.2K
month 2: $4K
month 3: $11K
month 6: $25K/month consistent

I put all 40 steps into a 45+ module course. way more detail than fits in a tweet. full walkthroughs, templates, scripts, everything.

comment "40" and I'll DM you the link.

must be following + RT.

@BiaNeuroscience I pre-ordered this like years ago… are you ever going to ship it?

[Ari Lerner @auser]

@rileybrown Uhhh… useful?

How do you celebrate the last weekend before the school year for your girlfriend?

@jrobgood Immutable, non-auto-updating, git-checkin-able systems are #swoon

@dysinger Oh of course... this isn't for pretty... that's a little graph library I am writing in rust. When I'm going for representation, I use Python's diagrams library.

[Ari Lerner @auser]

I do love graph making:

After a week of working with NixOS (and a few "WTF") moments, I've fallen in love with it.

Who would have known? Now I get why my friends love it so much... I'll be converting my entire dev environment over the next few months. tmpfs as root FTW

[Ari Lerner @auser]

@Perpetualmaniac I am happy to work on this, as a professional rust developer :)

@svpino hey bud. Did the circle group disappear?

Member of the group wondering where the community went…

[Ari Lerner @auser]

@svpino I did. Several times
