That the person with 300 followers reading this could be your next customer,
your co-founder
the one who reposts you to 50k.
Small accounts aren't a smaller version of big ones.They're where the real conversations still happen.
@sairahul1 Funny how everyone saves this and then does every step except "win the first customers by hand."
That's the only hard one, the rest is the fun part.
Bookmarking it feels like progress though lol.
@KettlebellDan Everyone says "post value." Nobody defines it.
Value = someone screenshots it, or someone replies to argue.
If your post triggers neither, it wasn't value. It was noise you felt good about.
The scary part of building in public isn't low numbers.
It's posting something you spent an hour on, watching it hit 3 views, then seeing a worse product with a better hook eat your lunch.
What's the post you were proudest of that completely flopped?
Nobody tells you that "building in public" quietly becomes "performing in public."
You stop shipping what's useful and start shipping what's postable.
Anyone else caught themselves doing this?
Unpopular opinion: your follower count is a vanity metric and your reply count is the real one.
500 followers who never talk to you is a graveyard.
50 who reply every time is a business.
@Snapkillls@suraj_sharma14 Agreed the "boring wrapper" gets you moving.
Which half is harder for you right now
building it or getting the first users to it?
