This Stupidly Simple App Makes $100K/Month
Pat WallsLet's move on to the growth, because, obviously, anybody can build a height predictor app. You could probably do it in a few hours with my Claude code right now. How did you get this app users and ultimately get it to $100,000 a month?
MichaelFirst, it was me just making content myself. It took about a month of just experimentation purely with content, making 10 TikToks every day. So then, eventually, I found the format. Because I only had one format, I had one distribution channel, it's very easy to see the attribution. Like I know exactly 100k views equals how many downloads. And then based off that, I'm like, "Okay, now I know I can hire creators for this amount of price."
MichaelWith the format, I replicated it myself on like two different accounts, and they both blew up. I had my girlfriend do it too, and like her account blew up. And I was like, "Okay, this is like an easy format. I can like teach anybody." So I just went on, DM'd like 50 people a day to be like, "Hey, would you want to make format, make this video?
