I Built A $30K/Month App: Here's My Exact Process [Idea, Build, Marketing]

Pat WallsThank you for showing that and thanks for sharing some of your numbers. I want to switch topics a little bit since you've launched so many apps. For anyone watching this right now, like let's say you had to start over from scratch, what would be your playbook for building a consumer mobile app in 2026?

BenjiKeep in mind that this literally worked for me for even my first app, and I didn't really have any money as a college student, so this would actually apply to everybody. So step one is figuring out an idea that is actually scalable and that you can implement properly. This is probably the highest leverage thing you could do. Think of it like this, a good product doesn't really need much quote-unquote "marketing." People convert at a higher rate and people don't want to cancel subscription on your product because your product is providing so much value to them. For Snag, it was very simple. You pay us a few dollars a month, and then you get access to products that are worth hundreds of dollars, and hence why I think we have a very high conversion rate.

Pat WallsYeah, I agree with that. My favorite apps are apps that help you make more money or help you save more money. This is a very simple value proposition. I'm happy to pay for that. What's the next step?
