Solo Founders don’t build alone.
Personal branding & content production

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

Learning from a lot of Founders and Builders recently. Thankful and excited to document more of the journey.

AI slop comes from human laziness.
Lazy input = Lazy output.

@JessePeplinski @ronald_obj_ai A house of learning cringers

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

We can have results or excuses; not both.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@ronald_obj_ai Both of these are true. It’s cool when a group of friends push each other to make sure we embody these 2 quotes everyday.

@byryangambrell Seeing content via a systematic approach that has 3 elements: educational value, social proof and connection/trust (showing the face since ppl buy from ppl)
That last one is probably the most difficult.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@Yikes_43 Goal is to bring a diverse range of founders and builders together that possess different and complementary skill sets. So the main thing I’m learning right now is how to collab with various personalities.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

Still learning and testing this, but having your first 50 users feel like they’re apart of your team and have insider access to the bts as you’re building, can go a long way.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@Yikes_43 I’d say more of a learning builder than a founder.

@JessePeplinski C’mon now! 1 cup of cringe coming right up!! 🔥☕️

@JessePeplinski The cool thing for you Jesse, is you’re building a strong personal brand as I’ve witnessed on your Twitch streams. In the early stages, I believe ppl will continue to buy from you regardless of how many times the product or what changes.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@Yikes_43 Good. Thank you for asking. How bout yourself?

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@boardyai Keep doing your thing!

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

Thank you to @boardyai for accurately connecting me with solo founders who match my personality and goals.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

Main reason I’m on @X connecting with solo founders and builders:
This is a marathon, not a sprint.
I’ve tried running alone; it’s boring.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@danielkleach I feel you on this. We just have to remember a company like PayPal had this silence the first 2 years and the rest is history.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

Great conversations in the SD tech scene.

@ItsAndyTaylor I need a social media therapist to tell me everything is going to be ok.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

If you’re seeing this,
It’s your sign to post something rn.
Don’t overthink it.
You’re helping ppl solve a problem and that plan, accountability & progress tracking starts with you now. Post.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

We need to normalize social media therapy. Sign me up for this.

[Ryan Elliott @magicflow_io]

@ItsAndyTaylor So true. The art of uncomfortable comfort that’s uncomfortable for us and useful for others.
