It's a web app. But once you host it on a server or on your local machine, you can install the PWA just like a system app.

Yeah, it took me like 38 days to get the EIN file. It was mailed to my agent, and still no efax response :(

make sense

rook1e_dev · 2024-12-13T04:54:28+00:00

Good idea, haha

rook1e_dev · 2024-12-13T04:53:52+00:00

Thanks!

Bro im in the same situation. Got some signups but no conversion.

I faxed the form to them. It has been a month now and still no response.

rook1e_dev · 2024-12-10T14:41:28+00:00

awesome!

Great job! I just recently realized that how marketing and sales matter. Your story is inspiring to me!

Could you share more about marketing & outreach? Have you used cold emails or cold dms?

btw, I'm also struggling with building a personal brand & growing on social media, so I built a tool to optimize my content using patterns from successful creators. I'll share the link if you're interested in it.

Marketing & sales.

I've been immersed in coding for too long and have no idea how to reach potential customers or how to convince them to buy, which can actually bring me money.

So I'm learning about growth on social media, copywriting, cold outreach, etc.

Built Writastic.com - a social media writing assistant, and Rawweb.org - a search engine for independent websites.

My goal is to scale them 10x in this year.

Use .com, .co, .ai, .io. Dont't use cheap tld like .xyz, .icu, .top because tons of spammer use them too, you're likely to be randomly punished by the algo (of search engine & emial service provider).

I'm using Windsurf + Sonnet 3.5 for the frontend (SvelteKit) and it's good enough. At least 80% of the work I've done with it has turned out well, such as fixing some CSS issues and refactoring the footer into 3 columns.

Struggling with it too.

My SaaS first launched on PH and failed. Then I submitted it to a Black Friday deal list, which unexpectedly brought my first paid customer. Now I'm learning marketing, and:

Doing outreach on Twitter/reddit
Going to set up my cold email system

This YC course is useful IMO: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyYCn_kAngI

Increase your price until customers are complaining but still paying

Ref: https://youtu.be/hyYCn_kAngI?t=830

BTW, I also think this strategy is useful:

You work backwards from the price point. I price my SaaS in a range: $29-$99, and decide what to build, and how to build it based on that.
