@butshaunn 🤣 Haha, so true! Some people can't help but inflate just about anything that relates to their business. Closed sales are king.

@pelloiafilippo Interesting. What marketing method has been the most successful for growing your startups?

[Andrew Taylor @hotcano]

@artisbautra @pelloiafilippo Yes. Historically, I’ve struggled with perfectionism which has slowed progress and caused missed opportunities.

I’ve become better at accepting “good enough.” Ship early and then listen for customer feedback for further refinement.

[Andrew Taylor @hotcano]

@pelloiafilippo Thanks, you too!

[Andrew Taylor @hotcano]

Wow! This hard cut on entrepreneurship opened a wave of different emotions regarding my own entrepreneurial journey.

Ironically, marketing and selling myself continues to be the greatest struggle. And I’m a marketer!

I’m not giving up. I’m all in! 💪

Entrepreneurship isn’t for average people.

@butshaunn https://t.co/esF1SHikZ8 It’s an app built to track my stack (gold, silver, etc).

I’m vibe coding another product for a hackathon I’m in that ends Sep 15. 🏗️

[Andrew Taylor @hotcano]

@matthias_mrc I want to say product. I want to say built it (right) and they will come. But this has not been my firsthand experience. I've shipped things I thought were great and... crickets!

Final answer: Audience first! Build trust and a following, then solve their pains with product.

@oldstackjournal I’m building StackValue. It gives stackers a private, real-time view of their precious metals holdings. No spreadsheets, no manual spot-price math. https://t.co/esF1SHikZ8

@thijsmakes You're on the board!!! Congrats! 🥳

@matthias_mrc So true! Show me, don’t tell me.

@jasondoesstuff @bot @AlexFinn does a solid job answering your question. Just substitute OpenClaw when he says Hermes. Same thing.

Grok Bot is the best AI agent right now

It gives you an army of agents that can do work for you around the clock 24/7

If you set it up correctly, you gain super powers

In this video I cover setting up Grok Bot, use cases, plugins, and what makes Grok Bot so good:

Still iterating it daily, so no hero screenshot. If you click through, tell me where the positioning is unclear.

One-prompt website tools are great at demos.
They’re still bad at a company site you have to stand behind.

Rebuilt https://t.co/xAwl6jFXBn this week:
ChatGPT for the plan.
Claude Code for the build.
Vercel to ship.

Prompt gets you a preview. Process gets you a site.
