⚡️ How to

Just studied @PaulYacoubian’s (who’s running @copy_ai ) Twitter

He’s making a killing with #buildinginpublic and here’s what I learned from going through his tweets

Thread (1/n)

(#10 is my fav)
1. Give back to the community
2. Make real connections with others
3. Lists of small, actionable advice work.
4. Learn from others, but from the "right" others
5. Document document document
6. Don't be shy to do the previous
7. Mark down every milestone
8. It's all one, continuing story
9. No decision? No problem
10. Have some fun, will you?
⚡️ 1. Give back to the community — info, proprietary info, even money ($500 for the best headline).

Be strategic: https://twitter.com/PaulYacoubian/status/1325065620015243264
Or https://twitter.com/PaulYacoubian/status/1327612255429664768
⚡️ 2. Make real connections with others — befriend other startups that you can reach (and their founders).

If they want to be friends, you’ll know it.

If they don’t — there’ll always be more friendships to be made
⚡️ 3. Lists of small, actionable advice work.

(I mean what are you reading now? My list, so thanks!)
⚡️ 5. Document document document.

Worst case worst you’ll have something to point back to and show your kids.

Best case scenario: people will help you build what you document in a better way
⚡️6. Don’t be shy to do the previous.

Paul shared $6 MRR

and then $24 MRR.

Then $56 MRR

And so on and so on — that was a separate product, but on @copy_ai they’re now on $60k+ and counting!
⚡️7. Mark down every milestone.

Good or bad.

What’s bad to you might be good for someone else: https://twitter.com/PaulYacoubian/status/1321250615864004609
⚡️8. It’s all one continuing story.

I’m pretty inclined to think that http://taglines.ai  was sort of ‘training’ for Paul and his co-founder @chris__lu.

The experience from http://taglines.ai  got transmuted to http://copy.ai 

@PaulYacoubian — true, false?
⚡️ 9. No decision? No problem.

Just ask your audience what else you should do. https://twitter.com/PaulYacoubian/status/1317888375983083521
⚡️ 10. (My favourite) Have some fun.

Don’t take it too seriously, will you?
