interesting experiment by Clerk: a PM who codes and sells, with a commission in their comp
PMs (in some cases) could/should have a variable comp imo
perfect for an indie hacker who knows how to market already 🤝
interesting to watch how this goes
the only jobs that matter in the next 5 years:
I told you I'm building the ANTI-COURSE.
No more learning.
Just. taking. action.
Do deep work every day. Build products. Ship stuff relentlessly.
It's not for everyone... Some people love it. Some people hate it.
Because if you don't take action, you're KICKED OUT!
I'm not sure if it's the right move for Starter Story bc everyone else in our space is selling overnight success by following some BS checklist.
But when I see stuff like this, it's all worth it.
TikTok admits in their own research:
“compulsive usage correlates with a slew of negative mental health effects like loss of analytical skills, memory formation, contextual thinking, conversational depth, empathy, and increased anxiety.”
When you launch your startup without a marketing plan 😬
WATCH ⚡️
Hamxs confounder son, @MosabHasanYOSEF recently on the Piers Morgan show:
I lived the conflict. I’m an eyewitness. I spent half my life in what is called Palestinian society, and the other half with the Jewish community. When I speak, I speak with the authority of experience from both cultures. One culture is a culture of death, sacrificing children for political and financial gain. And now, Omar comes to the West, carrying the false Palestinian identity, hiding behind a few Western values, trying to manipulate and deceive Western audiences by glorifying people like Hassan Nasrallah, Ayatollah, Sinwar, and other proxy leaders. These people are reckless.
They started the war on October 7, and Israel has the right to defend itself. Hezbollah has been launching missiles at civilians, killing 12 children on a playground as the world watches. That was in the Druze community, which is an integral part of Lebanon. Yet no one reins in Hassan Nasrallah. How many times have Omar, Mustafa, and Mohammed protested against Hezbollah’s aggression, especially while Israel bleeds in the south? I’m sorry, but Mohammad was completely wrong.
Hassan Nasrallah deserves punishment today. Israel is legitimate, and I stand for Israel because it is the most legitimate ethnic group in the region, with overwhelming evidence of its connection to the land. Omar and his peers, and Muslims over the past 1400 years, have tried to delegitimize and annihilate the Jewish people. They hate that Israel shows resilience and strength. If you ask Omar if he’s mourning, it’s because Hassan Nasrallah is his hero. Let me tell Omar and his kind:
You can’t rewrite history. When I speak, I speak not just with my authority but with the authority of the universe. Iran and all its proxies are backing a dangerous cause, but this is a serious conversation. Back off.
There will only be the language of fire. You can sit here in the West, pretending to value Western ideals, but you’re a liar with a false identity, and I have no respect for that.
Metropolis.

How?
One dead simple SEO strategy: Build what people search for.
Here's how it's done 👇
One of our favorite ways to create app store screenshots 💖
Crafting stunning app store visuals is our jam. Our secret weapon? Dynamic, eye-catching illustrations that effortlessly convey your app's vibe and value.
Which screenshot set do you like the most?
Not when I shared MRR posts, not with viral posts, not when I wrote provoking long-form.
I got the most followers when I was actively building and sharing that.
"You can do anything, but you can't do everything!"
This quote speaks directly to me!
It's been haunting me for a while now...
I have so many things going on and so many ideas but... I don't know which one to focus on 😬
I could focus on making videos on my coding channel, and get sponsors (they pay $$$$$)
I could focus on @iCodeThis, my first SaaS. Maybe funnel some viewers from ytb into it.
I could focus on the 2nd ytb channel and write down ideas for potential viral videos -> this requires me to test out new projects, monetize them, experiment, fail, try again until some nice idea pops off and grows the channelis
I could make more coding courses -> this worked out well in the past but is very time-consuming to do it right
I could build more products -> try to see what sticks and double down on those that do. This again takes time to test and experiment
It. Is. So. Hard. To. Pick! 🙃

.@JamesClear on the power of one minute:
Engineers love being sold problems, really exclusive problems. They love fixing things not many people have fixed before.
Your dream candidate will join because they want to fix something.
Sell problems, not benefits.
The Syrian-Arab psychiatrist Wafa Sultan was “shocked into secularism” by witnessing Islamist violence in Syria during the 1976-1982 Muslim Brotherhood uprising.
This was her clash with an Al Jazeera (MB) TV host over the “medieval mentality” of Islamists
Two is twice as good as one, but one is infinitely better than zero.
-One minute of making sales calls is infinitely better than zero minutes.
-One minute of meditation is infinitely better than zero minutes.
-One minute of writing is infinitely better than zero minutes.
Sure, it might be ideal to spend an hour doing these things, but one minute gets you in the game. Now you're learning. Now you're improving. Now results are possible. One doesn't seem like much, but it's something real. At zero, you're still dreaming.
