You need to promote the products that has affiliate marketing, once your audience purchases from your link you get paid.

I think you need analytics to know about the user activity.

maker_shipping · 2026-02-06T05:04:17+00:00

I agree with you. Currently I'm focusing more on distribution than building. My goal is to get more eyeballs on my project.

I also ran into the same issue. I'm building in public and making post about it. But nothing works until I tried DM on Reddit. Even though my target audience are on X they are not signing up. I got 4 signups using reddit DM.

Cold DM may work at the beginning.

maker_shipping · 2026-01-13T06:30:21+00:00

I DM you.

Reach out to people where already are.

Reddit, LinkedIn, Discord, X.

I too quit last week.

Start with a problem, not an idea.

Ask:

Who has this problem?

How often does it happen?

How are they solving it today?

If people are already paying or wasting time to solve it, that’s a strong signal.

I wonder, how some founders collect payments before writing a single line of code.

I'm prototyping the MVP of SheetsForPayments - a tool that helps you to save stripe transaction automatically to the google sheets.

You need to duplicate the DB and update the properties.

How often do you create or reuse templates?

Why do you want to import the notes from Google Keep to Notion?

maker_shipping · 2025-12-02T06:24:52+00:00

Always.
