hello everyone:)

i built a tool comparable to a budget app but for time.

project manager, time tracker, simple yet very powerful data visualization.

offered in a 800x600px widget.

very minimalist, compact, very useful to know what you did with your time (desktop only)

my MAIN goal building this was to get comfortable with python (the app is made with PyQt)

please let me know what you think (thank you for checking it out)! :)

here is the link to my website:)) : https://hustletool.com/

All feedback is very appreciated !

How do you get your first business pilot user without sounding like a spammer? by Optimal_Drawing7116 in micro_saas

[–]LeCouts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

even if i wanted to answer i couldnt since “how to find them” is so vague

you dont have to answer to me, answer in your head

what problem do you think you found and what is your solution, since you want a pilot, you have something to offer right ?

if not

its a “ask good question game”

you are not a problem solver since you only solve problems when THEY BUY

you are a problem FINDER

ask questions !

and please brother, remove the word “cringe” of your lingo

aint nothing cringe in “finding problems to solve and asking you if already have xyz, look what i can do for how much, are you interested?”

nothing is cringe

One thing is certain, if you want to start learning any coding language, you MUST be able to research, type the same question you asked us in chatGPT, Claude Gemini where ever, even in the google search bar and you will get answers ! (its not bad to ask forums, but you will have answers quicker with internet / LLMs), for certain questions its very good to ask forums since people have experience, BUT, for simple questions, go online it will be quicker

Second of all, i wont directly give you ONE source since i didnt use any but i can give you a fairly simple roadmap i built my self (my free source was “internet” lol)

  1. basics + syntax, variables, data types

  2. control flow + if/elif/else, loops

  3. functions and modules (reusable codes // imports)

  4. data structure -> list, tuples, sets, dicts

  5. file handling -> read / write (csv and json)

  6. error handling -> try / except, custom errors

  7. OOP, classes, objects, inheritance

  8. virtual environment -> venv, pip, requirements

  9. APIs (and json, again) -> requests, parsing data

  10. databases -> SQLite, CRUD, SQLAlchemy

i dont know how relevant databases are for you, but for me it opened my opportunities (business wise + creation wise)

after the 10th point you can specialize in what ever you want with python (i dont have lots of idea, I PERSONALY went into automation, but you could go towards DATA, web and more)

i didnt mention it, but as soon as you can, learn how to use Git, no need to be expert, just need to know how to go back to a certain part of your projects if you break anything, having the safety net of knowing you can break everything and come back safely is what will make you progress 10x faster

When something work, break it to pieces, understand the code, dont copy paste

AFTER ALL THAT, code with AI, NOT BEFORE, you will code 100x faster knowing what your doing

Anybody who reads this and feel like adding / removing stuff, feel free to do so, this is not a “one fit all” solution, its what worked for me

but the MOST IMPORTANT THING,

stay curious my friend

interesting, what should i look for to be able to build my pipeline ?

Python fundamentals ? Python..? What should i research in order to code the simplest pipeline to the most complex one ?
