1 hours a day spent marketing my app (making + posting 6 videos)
30,000 downloads with this routine last month, 100% free.
you too can grow any b2c app for absolutely free, no paid ads.
yes YOU CAN. YOU READING THIS.
HERE IS HOW TO GET 1000S OF DOWNLOADS THIS MONTH TO YOUR APP FOR FREE:
- if you are struggling to get downloads to your app then read this NOW, if you bookmark it, you aren't gunna take action on it... okay lets go.
Open new account (instgram or tiktok first, or BOTH) scroll on it for 2 days, 15 min/day in your target audience. Save any videos you see that you could remake to promote your app (yes you'll need to think creatively for this)
On day 3, make some content! Based on 1 of the saved videos you have.
Make sure the comment, caption or end of video CTA is related/relevant to your app. If you just want views but no downloads, whats the use of this?
Start with 1 post/ day and after 30 days of this if you didnt hit a reel with 500k views then feel free to DM me if you need help.
Try to see what other apps are doing (can even look at mine) , and keep trying new formats, this is all about testing, but know that it IS POSSIBLE.

Once you find a winning format, double down on it. Each apps "winning format" is unique and this may take more than a month to find a true winner. Took me 300+ videos for my app. Now i post 3 a day on one account and 2 a day on another.
Don't rush into posting a million videos. Posting ONE a day that you have put reel creative thought into is much better than spraying out 2,3,4,5,6+ a day.
Stick to 1 a day per warmed account (account that is new and you scrolled on without posting for 2 days in your target audience)
Aim for short videos as algo LOVESSS watch time and comments. These are your two goals. MAKE content that drives comments and watch time
What type of content drives these the best? GOOD CONTENT! not slop. You can go viral if you let yourself try hard enough and keep going. I know you can. and it will be a nice boost to your app downloads and revenue.

okay now stop bookmarking this and just go do it, open a new account on tiktok/ instagram and warm it up.
I prefer instagram as main, then reupload to YT, TT and all others at the same time via @postbridge_
finally yes, the screenshot you see below is from my own tool post bridge. this is how ive been able to post AND MAKE 6 videos a day now after finding a winning format for my app that drives downloads. I upload and schedule all my apps content using this and it takes 10x less time!
You can do the same for $9/ month (10x cheaper than the cheapest service out there for this same thing)

HOW TO WARMUP ACOUNT RECAP:
Make new account, scroll on it for 15 mins /day for 2-3 days. Scroll, follow, comment and like posts that YOUR APP or product is relevant to only. This helps the algorithm know where to push your content to first. This is CRITICAL for tiktok especially as its hard to change later. You should never buy Old accounts, they suck, and are very hard to warm up or change the existing set audience. I use same email for all my tiktok accounts, most little things dont matter like this. If you dont get views following this then its most likely your content is not that great. Keep trying, and don't be afraid to stop posting for 2-3 days if you cant break 500 view mark on TT or IG.
OKAY NOW GO GO GO TRY IT!

$100k prize hackathon, now free to enter
a few hours later... 700 people ready to battle in this free for all bloodbath where even the losers can come out with a profitable business
I made a mistake.
When Jack and I decided to organize this $100K Hackathon, my biggest concern was cheating.
Unlike a regular hackathon, everyone participates from home. And because the winner is whoever makes the most PROFIT (not revenue), there are so many ways to manipulate the numbers.
So I added a $99 entry fee.
One thing I’ve learned from building businesses is that people tend to be more committed when they pay for something.
I thought it would filter out spam, attract serious builders, and make the competition fairer for everyone.
But I completely missed the other side.
3 years ago, I was a living with my apps. Today, I’m financially free. My life changed so much that somewhere along the way, I lost perspective on what $99 means to someone else.
For someone in India, someone struggling to pay their bills, or someone trying to make their first dollar online, $99 can be a lot of money.
And those are exactly the people I want to help!
I’ve spent years sharing what I’ve learned, reviewing random people’s landing pages, and organizing free meetups around the world. Not because there’s money to make, but because I genuinely love seeing people build things and succeed.
And somehow, I was so focused on keeping cheaters out that I didn’t realize I was also keeping genuine builders out.
That’s my mistake.
So I’ve decided to make the $100K Hackathon completely FREE :)
Everyone who already paid got a full refund.
I’m still worried about cheating. That problem hasn’t disappeared, and Jack and I will have to figure out better ways to verify profits and keep the leaderboard fair.
But that’s our problem to solve.
Thank you to everyone who shared their thoughts. Sometimes you need people to remind you of things you’ve forgotten.
I genuinely hope this hackathon changes someone’s life.
❤️
a lot of people fail to realize that anyone with a bunch of followers on social media is still just a normal fugging dude
being mean and hostile to another human even if they have a big following on social media doesn't change they are just ONE DUDE(or dudet), just like you.
Sometimes I forget that hundreds of thousands of people are following what I do.
A few years ago, I could make a decision, share a random thought, or say something stupid, and nobody would notice.
Now everything has a much bigger impact.
And I don’t think my brain has fully adapted to that yet.
I’ve always tried to be as raw and authentic as possible on here. I share what I’m building, what I’m thinking, my wins, my failures, sometimes without thinking too much about how people will perceive it.
That’s what I’ve always done, and I don’t want to lose that.
But I’m also just a human who sometimes gets things wrong, even with good intentions.
It’s a weird feeling trying to stay the same person while realizing that the things you say and do carry a lot more weight than they used to.
But I can't complain! I'm incredibly grateful to be where I am today, and I wouldn't trade it for anything.
I guess I just have to learn how to navigate all of this while staying true to myself 🫂
okay it’s now free to enter this insane hackathon
enter to win $100,000 by building the most profitable company in 30 days. that’s it. make the most money, win all the money.

this is a hackathon but instead of the winner winning because of judges subjective feelings for what is best they win because they got the most money from paying real customers and solved a real problem
Higgsfield gave me $100,000 to realize my dream:
A hackathon where participants build a real business, not just an app.
So... Introducing The $100K Hackathon:
🏴☠️ SHIP-OR-DIE.COM/100K-HACKATH… 🏴☠️
It starts on November 16, and you'll have 30 days to build a startup and make it profitable. The prizes:
🥇 $100,000
🥈 iPhone Duo
🥉 MacBook Neo
This is not a joke. The winner will get $100,000 in cash.
To win, you must:
1. Start a completely new business on Nov 16
2. Build a digital product (SaaS, directory, etc.)
3. Make the most profit (not revenue)
You can already register at $99. When the hackathon starts on Nov 16, you can still join for $149.
I'm running this with my dear friend @jackfriks, and we'll manually review each potential winner to make sure everything holds up.
See you on November 16, builders 🏴☠️🫡

i’m very silly, this is 2026… i can let people use the old version of the app on the same app cause i can make any software possible with a few commands from my phone. i will email all the old users to let them know they can use old version for life if they want on next update
when you change something someone is familiar with it almost ALWAYS feels like a huge downgrade and there will always be some level of negative first reactions... but its basically impossible to make forwards progress without changing things. maybe i will add a way to use old version of the app but i'm not sure - also worth noting most people do not pay for the app! so i will listen more to the people who do.
last week i pushed an update to my couples app with 1,000+ monthly active users
i have been SO HYPE about it, i think its 100x better
but some of the reviews from active users say otherwise, so far...
adding a new way to flirt with my wife to our cozy couples app that takes place on a laundromat boat

being able to code through claude from my phone has been insanely awesome for the last 3 months. my at home machine is always on and running 12 sessions i can access at all times…
but also now i don’t just open phone to look at social media. i open phone and get sucked into challenging mental work and that is great sometimes but also very hard to be present at other times with that experience of work so close by and accessible.
that’s odd, my new cozy couples app hasn’t went viral yet or been featured in a major russian news outlet again since relaunching it… even though i am the luckiest man alive i must admit this is a very round about way towards my luck, but im sure it will all work out for me.
trying to teach claude how to draw kinda works but i feel i should probably give up now and give it an API key for image generation// svg creation… what image model is best partner for opus 5.5? and how do you easily connect// give it to all your claude sessions?
made a post for my app @lovelee_app mascot page (littlemrspig) yesterday
posted on IG and i thought it was SUPER CRINGE, and it didnt do great on IG
checked faceb00k stats on it today and it did quite well (posted via @postbridge_ )
