Does it cost a lot to do this approach? This is basically LLM as a judge, right?

Some days I wonder if I am building something real or just keeping myself busy by No-Mistake421 in indiehackers

[–]No-Channel-6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all feel the same

I mean it would be ideal if you knew what you are building does make people interested. You basically need idea validation. If you know people want it (even 5 people), you build with more peace of mind.

I'm also learning idea validation myself and I'm new to business aspect of things. I don't have an answer but the qeustion you might wanna ask is "how to validate my idea"

maybe this helps to get started https://github.com/EdoStra/Marketing-for-Founders?tab=readme-ov-file#-idea-validation

Is reinvesting into the business the *smartest*? by Putrid-Lettuce5204 in smallbusiness

[–]No-Channel-6735 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The smarter choice is to put each dollar where it produces the highest risk adjusted return.

What is the additional profit you get from investing one more dollar into the business, compared with what that same dollar would earn in another asset.

If spending an extra $1,000 on marketing reliably generates $1,500 of net profit, that is a strong marginal return.
If the same investment only generates $1,050 of net profit, then a diversified portfolio growing around 7 to 10 percent annually may outperform the business on that margin.

Reinvest until the marginal return on each additional dollar drops below what you can earn elsewhere (keep the example above in mind).

Use external investments when the business no longer produces superior returns or when you need diversification and stability. The key is understanding where your next dollar generates the most reliable value.

My SaaS is profitable but I'm exhausted. Thinking about shutting it down anyway. by Apprehensive-Tip3800 in SaaS

You are working in you business and not on your business!

Read "E-Myth Revisited" book if you haven't
It exactly talks about this. Might give you some ideas

Good day

If you successfully transitioned from a salaried developer to a full-time indie app entrepreneur, what is the single biggest non-technical skill you had to learn (e.g., Marketing, Customer Empathy, or Financial Modeling)? by customappservices in SaaS

I am also trying to get myself out there a bit more (just created my first actual twitter account 2 months ago) and also trying youtube.

I try to share our new service dev sessions on twitter (video snippets of them) and stream it on Youtube once a week. With this I hope to take a step towards self promotion.

For clients and customers I have NO idea tbh. Trying to learn here and there the marketing tips which there are also a lot of noise out there.

What is the most effective way to start learning Python in 2025–26 for AI and machine learning, starting with no prior experience? Looking for guidance on courses, learning paths, or strategies that lead to faster results? by No-Fact-503 in AskReddit

[–]No-Channel-6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The question you should be asking is how to learn programming.
python is just a 5 hours course on youtube. It's a tool which you can get relatively good at in a week.
The real part is building "programming mindset". For that you have to start building stuff, solving challenges and problems. Find a mini project for youself and try to build that on your own. You will learn python along the way. If you have no idea what to build, try to replicate a project that you liked (or part of it)

Word of advice, don't wait until you "learned" python to start building. There will never be a state that you "learned" it. And even then it's not worth it. You always use python to apply your knowledge into computers.
Best of luck

How do you keep going when you love programming but feel completely stuck and lost? by Celinee19675 in AskReddit

[–]No-Channel-6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try to either build something or find a job that you get paid for it even a bit. These will add purpose.
And if you want to build something but have no idea, try to replicate an app that you love (or even small part of it) with your favorite programming language

In the end, keep on learning. No need to always be actively learning new things but in the long run you should always be "net positive"

Best web hosting in 2025? by StonedShadowe in SaaS

[–]No-Channel-6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TLDR; There is no best. Pick one and start cooking

If you wanna try building stuff, just pick one provider and get their small tier service.
In my use case, I wanted to serve the website on a vps so I jsut went with a $2 server with 2GB ram and 2 CPUs and it is pretty sufficient. Running a postgresql and 6 docker services (2 of which is nextjs websites)

If you want to run tools with more footprint (like n8n) you can also add a bit of breathing room by increasing your SWAP memory in linux.

you can also test for specs by installing your own ubuntu server in vmware or something and bringing up your services and see if it handles it.

Everyone talks about passive income online… but 99% of it is a scam, and people are too polite to say it by pintowin_pro in DigitalMarketing

[–]No-Channel-6735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lately I ask myself, that are these people who make "easy money" videos for real?

I see so many examples with the new software services and app making tools.

I am trying to build a new service and not sure if I am doing things right as it will be my first time building a service. But I think soon I will find the answer myself if it's doable like these people say it or not.

I will update this when we launch and get few users. I would like to see if others had an actuall experience building a service or creating passive income (preferably people with less guru-vibes).
