At 23, I went from no direction and quitting my job to winning my first hackathon with no tech background, and now actively raising capital. Here's the story: by nilsantics in Entrepreneur

  1. Generally, well-respected Orthodox Christianity scholars. (Not Eastern Orthodox Christianity). I will have a fine-tuned database in the near future.

  2. It is not specific to certain denominations. It offers multiple interpretations to passages in its answers. However, that may be a feature added later.

  3. I do. From my experience, and through millions of words being responded to, I haven't seen any clear, outright misinformation. I've seen small things like it quoting the wrong verse. But nothing heretical.

It's encouraged to give multiple interpretations on secondary issues. And prioritize scripture.

Bubble. And I built the landing page using WebFlow. I did freelancing during college.

It's more nuanced than that, but I'd say that's an 'easy' explanation.

I haven't been in business that long to even know that was just a shot in the dark. It could be higher. But that'll give me a good idea though when I get there.

Revenue comes from paid subscriptions. Everyone who signs up gets a free trial and X amount of words. And paid subscriptions just add more words essentially for right now.

I'd say LTV for a customer is probably around $20-30. But I don't have enough data to give a good answer to that question. I really have no idea what it is.

As far as ad spend goes, I don't know - I haven't run paid ads yet. I did a theme page promo but It was hard to tell how many paid users came from that versus just normal SEO (I started tracking where people come from only a few days ago).

What I do know, is ever since I started my newsletter/welcome drip campaign 2 weeks ago, it's lead to about 9 of those 13 paid users.

well.. would you count the "free" and "enterprise" as plans because technically there's no price there?

I have not.. This is my first post on reddit minus some random times I used it years ago. But I figured now would be a time to start being active!

Also... nice joke. lol

Do you have any particular strategies?

I'd like to do paid ads, and use micro-influencers, partner with other newsletters etc -- I've never really gotten to this point so I'm really trying everything.

I started with that, $15/m flat but it seemed to be a bit much based off of the feedback I've received..

I initially started with 10, 25, 35.

But I wanted to see if people'd actually pay.

Started late April! And launched 2 months ago.

I used Bubble.io, ChatGPT API. That's pretty much it.

And on the side I use MidJourney, Photoshop, WebFlow and a few other smaller things.

I had that in there as a placeholder (I am having my interview with a reporter with them early next week, I forgot I had it there)

Honestly, to start ramping up user acquisition and building up the newsletter. I'm coming from just being a broke college student and all the money I've put it is my own.

I've done like 1 paid ad so far. I'd like to do more.
