we spent $2,352 promoting a health app on tiktok.

here's what happened.

most brands are paying $8 CPM for ads nobody watches. this app converted $0.09 per install instead.

we scrapped the whole thing and ran it through Content Rewards with an Adaptive AI slideshow agent instead.

25,638 downloads. $6,635 MRR. 30 days without paid ads.

what changed:

before:
-> paying creators flat fees with no guaranteed results
-> creators posting inconsistent formats with no proven structure
-> briefs going back and forth for days before a single post went live
-> 15-20 slideshows a week if they were lucky

after:
-> brands drop the agent link in their Content Rewards campaign brief
-> creators open it, type a topic, slideshow is ready in minutes
-> 200+ creators posting the same proven format simultaneously
-> 25,638 downloads in 30 days
-> $6,635 MRR. $0.09 per install. 2.82x ROI on spend

same $2,352 and a 16x-38x better revenue outcome than Meta.

the agent writes the story. Void AI generates the slides. exports a PNG pack and MP4 ready to upload.

comment "SLIDES" + RT and i'll send you the agent so you can run this for your next Content Rewards campaign (must be following so i can DM)

@bymarcoperez congrats Marco!
Seeing real people use your app hits different. What helped you get those first downloads?

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

@bymarcoperez Congrats!

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

@bymarcoperez Crushing it! What’s your timeline from idea to App Store?

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

The hardest part for me: realizing the launch is day 1, not the finish line.

Still figuring out why 64 downloads = $27.

That gap is the real puzzle.

12 days since I launched my first iOS app.

64 downloads. 2 subscribers. $27.

Shipping 1.1 this week, the app now remembers important dates for the people you care about.

First month free when you update.

What’s the hardest part of your first 30 days post-launch?

@Tobby_scraper Vera, a small app to help you stay in touch with the people that matter

Not productivity, more like a gentle nudge so relationships don’t fade

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

@bymarcoperez Sounds good! Any tips? I’m just starting to experiment there too

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

Today I shipped my first iOS app 🚀

30 days ago it was just an idea.

The problem:
you don’t lose friends because you stop caring, you lose them because life gets busy.

So I built Vera.

It nudges you to stay in touch with people who matter.

[Brayan Alexis @barm98]

@marias_martin Totally fair, ideally we wouldn’t need anything.
It’s just there for when life gets busy and things slip.
Some people might use it more for professional relationships too.

Curious what you think 😁
