[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@jackfriks what’s up with these post scheduling apps, postiz, postbridge and i think i ve seen a couple more that do so well?

is the market so big and distribution easy to crack?

@marclou this is gold

@wickedguro @gregisenberg but how do agents find postiz?

Every day, your ideal customer posts "we need to switch software" in a Facebook Group.

And you're not watching.

Enterprise buyers signal on LinkedIn. SMB buyers?

They're in Facebook Groups

- asking for recommendations, evaluating competitors, complaining about their current tools.

In public.

I built Plum to catch it:

→ Scrape posts & comments from target FB groups
→ AI flags buying intent
→ Enrich every signal with contact info

You get a weekly list of people actively looking for what you sell.

If you're building software for dental, HVAC, auto repair, restaurants, or fitness

- your buyers are in FB groups right now.

Comment “FB” and I’ll send you a sample signals list for your vertical.

@jackfriks how do you plan for variance in your income?

let’s say you want to put a down payment for a house, or rent - do you trust this income will be there in the future or you take it month by month

@jakecastilloooo why should you do it in a week instead of 2 months? i m all for speed, but is this just about speed or timing as well?

you can start a similar app to cal ai again in 3 weeks now, but it wouldn t be as successful, would it

@coderpr0grammer i like the idea, great for homeschooling. but i think school is also for building social skills & some life experience, any way of solving for that?

@marclou i always wondered if your wife s also into startups, or is it just you

@alexcooldev do you think these b2c apps promoted on tiktok have a shelf life?

you said built 10 apps making 5k/mo. do you think they ll go making 5k/mo a long way, lets say more than 5 years?

or you’ll always have to adapt to trends

@DanKulkov can the tiktoks reach US market?

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@sistilli blacklisting on yc exists?

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@alexcooldev is there any agency/ platform that automates this process for non-US founders wanting to promote their apps on tiktok?

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

at 15 i told my friend to punch me in the face if i didn't start a business by the end of high school

started my first company at 16. flew to england and lisbon. talked to investors. got a co-founder.

he never had to throw that punch. but that threat carried me for years.

@vitaliidodonov STANLEY

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@alexcooldev why don’t you buy it now? I think it’s 90k ish,
20% down (18k) + 750-1k/mo 3 years

or you can even put even more down at the beginning

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@julianweisser @solofounders applied, already coming to SF anyways

[Theo Poco @theopoco]

@signulll @Skye move a step further.

make on demand apps for whatever people need instead of having an app store
