I haven't paid hosting bills in my life thanks to AWS programs: → AWS Lightsail 3-month free plan to start - Build & validate during the free period → Apply for AWS Activate = $1000 credits (2 years) - I've helped many clients get these credits too The goal isn't to avoid…

My SaaS running on Coolify + AWS Lightsail → Full-stack Nextjs app deployed via Coolify on AWS Lightsail - $12/month (3 Months Free) → AWS Lightsail Postgres Database - $15/month (3 Months Free) Total cost: $27/month after 3 months of usage Coolify makes self-hosting…

Your SaaS doesn’t fail because of tech. It fails because you spent 6 months building features nobody needed. -> Ship fast -> Charge early -> Iterate with real users That’s the only playbook.

Freelancers don’t fail because of skills. They fail because of: -> Too many scattered tools -> No system for clients -> Wasting time on admin work That’s why I’m building a workspace that keeps it all in one place.

Non-tech founders overcomplicate MVPs. You don’t need AI, dashboards, or 20 integrations on day 1. You need: -> A landing page -> A way to accept payments -> A way to collect feedback That’s it. Ship that → then iterate 🚀

Juggling Notes, Sheets, Trello, Docs, Invoices, Time Tracking… That’s what pushed me to build an all-in-one workspace for freelancers & solopreneurs. Building it publicly 🚀 Would you use such a tool?

Building in public isn’t about bragging. It’s about sharing the grind, the numbers, the mistakes. Users don’t trust perfect founders. They trust real builders.

Freelancers don’t need enterprise tools. They need: -> Notes -> Tasks -> Time tracking -> Invoices That’s it. Everything else is just shiny SaaS bloat.

Most MVPs fail because founders build features, not flows. Don’t ask ‘what can we add?’ Ask: ‘What’s the fastest way a user gets value?’ That’s what I optimize when building.

The SaaS market isn’t crowded. It’s just full of products solving problems nobody cares about. If you solve a real pain, you’ll stand out instantly.

Stop overengineering MVPs. If your stack looks like: -> Kubernetes -> Microservices -> Kafka …you’re not building an MVP. You’re building a resume.

Freelancers and Solopreneurs don’t need another Slack. That’s why ColabCrunch has no chat. We’re building Notes, Docs, Sheets, Tasks, and Invoices → in one flow. Not another distraction machine. Focus > Noise

Your MVP doesn’t need a year of dev. It needs: -> Auth -> Payments -> Analytics -> Landing page I ship that in 4 weeks for just $2.5k. Stop burning $20k+ on things your first 10 users won’t touch.

Throwback to university days… I was the class topper, fully focused on my career, yet I never missed a chance to laugh with my friends. Success feels sweeter when it’s shared with those who stood by you through both the grind and the fun 🥂 It’s the journey that makes the…

These two little souls aren’t with me anymore, but they’ll always live in my heart ❤️ Back in the days when I’d spend hours coding, stuck on bugs, and scratching my head, they were always there, cheering me up in silence. Sometimes, love doesn’t speak; it just exists.

Every laptop has a story. Mine has seen sleepless nights, coffee spills, and a thousand restarts. What’s yours seen? 💻

The ROI of a clean desk setup: → Less fatigue → More focus → Better output Small changes = big compounding results

This laptop has seen late-night hustles, 3 AM bug fixes, and small wins that keep me moving. Every dev has their battle station 🔥

Why I stopped offering unlimited revisions: $2500 MVP project turned into: -> 47 revision requests -> 3 months of scope creep -> Client still "just had one more idea" -> I made $12/hour Now I include 3 rounds, then charge hourly. Boundaries aren't mean. They're professional.…

Client: Can you build me a Netflix clone for $1000? Me: That's like asking for a Tesla at bicycle prices Client: But my nephew said he could do it for $500 Me: Your nephew sounds very talented 😁 Sometimes the best deal is the one you don't take.
