About 6 months ago I launched Funding Freak as a way to help Kickstarter projects launch, grow and get funded.

Using a FB group I made I was able to begin work with 3 amazing clients. #buildinpublic

βœ… Chose voice over for explainer video

βœ… Hired a video company to start production of the video

#buildinpublic #saas
Have a few new voice over options for the upcoming explainer video for Yums. Which one is your favorite? #poll #saas #buildinpublic
⏰ 25 Days

βœ… Simple outreach script finalized, goal is to get on more discovery calls with potential customers - this is less selling and more figuring out businesses pain points that can be solved with our service.

βœ… Now in complete control of the Yums code/app. Previously only the dev had access, they did an awesome job but no longer have time to work on the project. So I needed to get everything transferred to me. This is honestly a big deal πŸ”₯

Who is building as SaaS or productized service specifically targeting other businesses. NOT a tool for makers, creators, individuals etc. but tools for businesses. I’d love to connect! #buildinpublic #maker #saas

βœ… Completed Video Script

*These are just rough PS sketches will need to hire someone to actually make this into a video flesh it all out, animate it etc.

Last year I made a quick video for Yums. Posted it to FB and instantly got 2-3 sales for year long subs. What worked is I showed myself, showed my product, and explained everything in under 45 seconds. Give this format a try and let me know how it goes. #buildinpublic
What does the extremely vague phrase of β€œadd value” actually mean? #MarketingTwitter #buildinpublic
Need advice from my makers fam. I’m looking to sell more subs for Yums. Link-in-bio sites built for restaurants to help get more orders with good looking, quick loading sites that convert

What should I do to make new sales this month? #maker #indiehacker #saas #buildinpublic
Yums stuff! Restaurant page. Analytics that will display # of site visits and link clicks. Restaurant menu creator. Just a few more tweaks to this till this is ready #buildinpublic
This is so crazy to me! 🀯 YUMS started out using an existing landing page app to build microsites as a service.

Now we are making our own custom page builder software and adding in tons of features restaurant owners will love. πŸ”₯

If you are a solo founder / indie maker. How do you balance sales & marketing with actually servicing your customers? #buildinpublic #indiehackers
Embarrassing test video πŸ€ͺ rearranged the room a little bit and plan on doing more videos soon. Founders and people looking to #buildinpublic are you using videos to document your journey & create content? πŸ€”

Tagging @thisiskp_ - wanted to share my own journey of building in public as someone with no development/coding skills. Hopefully this can inspire a few people #buildinpublic #nocode
