Episode 009: Building Community (What Actually Happened)
Building in public means showing the real numbers, the experiments that didn’t work, and the pivots that emerged from doing the work. This episode covers:
- The honest numbers: 131 followers, 61 subscribers (not the 100 I targeted)
- The workshop experiment that didn’t go as planned
- The repositioning insight: expert rapid builder vs. teacher of vibe coding
- How I use Claude to plan, strategize, and iterate on content
- The prompts and process behind AI-assisted content creation
- What’s coming in Season 2
Current projects mentioned:
- uPoll.live — course engagement platform, university pilot
- BuildWith — builder/client marketplace
- QueryBase — writers’ SaaS for share agent database to use as a querying and research platform
- Landing page/lead magnet tool (in development)
The repositioning:
I can validate your business idea in 14 days. The opportunity cost of waiting is real. That’s the offer.
