Hey everyone,

I currently run 6 micro SaaS that are actually live and generating a bit over $20,000 in recurring monthly revenue.

The wildest part? I barely wrote any code myself. I used AI to generate pretty much everything — from the database structure to the frontend.

It definitely wasn’t magic from day one. I spent a lot of hours stuck on buggy code before I finally figured out a system that actually works:

- Keep the idea minimalist (a real MVP, nothing fancy)

- Guide the AI step by step instead of asking for everything at once

- Launch fast to get real users and feedback

Lately I’ve seen way too many non-technical founders quit at the first AI bug. It’s a shame because the technical barrier has basically disappeared.

AND PLEASE, STOP BUILDING ALONE IN YOUR BEDROOM

I’m starting a community.

Full transparency:

I’ll probably charge for the full program later. It makes sense with the specific workflows and copy-paste examples I’ll be sharing. But right now the main goal is just to build together. Working alone is the fastest way to give up.

If you want to join and build or market your own AI SaaS with us,

drop a comment or send me a DM and I’ll send you the link.

Is there anyone on here who works with Impact Radius and may be able to answer a few questions? My company has an account through Impact Radius, and main promotion is through a mobile app. Product promotion is not the main product, the app is an organizational tool. Product promotion was removed some time ago when access to the Amazon API was temporarily lost because of low off-season monthly purchases due to the app's seasonality. We have been creating a new version of the app where seasonality will not be an issue, and where product promotion will be reincorporated again. Amazon API access has already been restored. Again, the app exists entirely independently from product promotion; the content is the sharing and organizational tools the app provides. However, it seems that mobile apps are a little harder to get acceptance for on Impact. In our particular case, we have been in Impact for a while, but at some point, marketplace application was denied with no clear answer as to the reason behind the rejection; and now it seems that there is no way back, and no clear explanation, only direction to apply to individual merchants. For many of those merchants, applications are blocked or immediately denied. Support emails to Impact are met with an unhelpful template reply, the same each time no matter what question is asked. Chats to merchants go unanswered. There is a website listed on the account as well, and ownership has been proven, but no products are promoted through the website, we've tried to gain acceptance with this website removed, and with this website listed. I'm sure it does not help that no products are currently promoted within the app, but it's a catch 22, we wanted Impact to be a part of that planning and setup along with Amazon. This is an app that I'm certain meets or exceeds quality standards for promotion. We will likely relaunch with just Amazon; but I was wondering, for an app that is popular and likely to become more popular soon, and is of good quality, is there anything that can be done to gain approval before products are back on the mobile app? Is there anything that someone can say, "look for this, it is a likely reason", or "mobile apps really have no place in impact" or "this is how your mobile app should be set up for a successful application"? I have heard recommendations to create a new account because it is "impossible to come back from marketplace rejection." Then I have heard that this could get you banned even harder, if that is possible. I am willing to do whatever is needed to be done to prove what needs to be proven in order to gain marketplace acceptance, but I am not sure it is even possible on the account at this point, no matter how well the app does and how well it promotes products. I could really use some guidance if anyone has insight that they would be willing to share with me. Thank you.

so I've been running a tiktok shop affiliate program for a few months now and I'm honestly drowning in data, like I have spreadsheets of creators I've reached out to, some of them posted, some of them got samples and ghosted, and I have no idea who actually made me money versus who just wasted my time and product and It really feels careless and I feel like I'm lacking behind something everytime.....

I'm sending out samples to like 50 creators a month but I can only track like half of what's happening because everything is scattered between dms, email, my notes app, and about the actual sales data, I don't even know which creators are posting consistently versus which ones were just a one time thing.

now what I think is that the problem is that I can't see the full picture, like I don't know if creator a cost me more in samples than they made back in revenue, and I don't know which creators would be worth reaching out to again versus which ones I should just forget about, I'm basically just guessing at this point....

I feel like there has to be a better way to organize this stuff and actually see which affiliates are performing versus which ones are just bleeding my budget

like I really wanna know how are you guys managing this, so like do you manually track everything or is there a system that actually shows you the journey from outreach to sample shipment to post to revenue because I have seen some systems that are helpful but right now I'm just winging it and it's killing me.

What are some marketplaces to recruit affiliates for a data driven prediction market crypto bot?

Also any recommendations for affiliate rates?

Target market is outside US and based on polymarket's non geo blocked countries.

Based on some research, ideal markets are:

UAE, some EU countries (Switzerland, Spain, Sweden, and others), some latin america countries.

If anyone is experienced on the space, would love some advice. Thank you!

I create Scandinavian-inspired fashion, beauty and home content, and I’m trying to build a more consistent affiliate income through LTK and ShopMy.
Pinterest is my main traffic source, with over 2.5 million monthly views. I post outfit moodboards, styling ideas and individual product pins, linking to products or curated collections. My earnings are still inconsistent, though, and I’m struggling to figure out where to focus.

I know views don’t necessarily mean buying intent, so I’d love advice from people who’ve successfully converted Pinterest (or another platform) traffic into affiliate sales:
- How do you identify products or topics that attract buyers?
- Do direct product pins or curated roundups work better for you?
- Does content that solves a specific problem—like styling a tricky item or furnishing a small room—convert better than general inspiration?
- Would you focus on improving my Pinterest strategy, or suggest another platform to reach my audience?

Creating and helping people find things they love is my passion. My first goal is a consistent $1,000/month, with the longer-term goal of doing this full-time. I’m happy to put in the work, but I want a clearer strategy instead of just posting more and hoping.

What would you test or change first? I’d really appreciate any firsthand experiences, strategies and success stories!!

Hello, everyone.

Over the past 3 months, I’ve learned how to edit short videos and have built a network of channels (Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube) with nearly 20,000 subscribers.

I average 12 million views per month. At first, I was hoping to monetize through the platforms themselves, but I realized that’s not very effective. I’ve noticed that major content creators use affiliate links to make money. I want to give that a try.

I’ve spent a couple of days reading up on how it works, but I’m new to choosing an affiliate partner - can you recommend where I should look?

My videos cover news in the fields of technology, video games, and interesting DIY projects related to PCs / console.

My audience is roughly:
90% men aged 24–36; 40% in the US, Canada
30% in Europe, UK
30% in India and Asia.

I’ve signed up for the NordVPN and SharkVPN affiliate programs. Ive been approved for both. But I’m not going to rush into a decision just yet.
I’m waiting to choose one.

Has anyone had experience working with these platforms?
What affiliate programs would you recommend for my situation?

THX GUYS!

Hello, I just learned about affiliate marketing and want to try it and see if I can make anything from it. I don’t have a lot of following or anything on social media, only 400+ followers on IG and 90+ followers on TikTok and I’m just a broke college student.

Have been looking into affiliate marketing as something flexible I could do from home, but I’m still trying to understand what actually works when you’re starting without a big audience. I came across Hiya affiliate program while looking at parenting and wellness brands, and it made me wonder whether that kind of niche is realistic for a beginner or if you really need an established following first. For anyone who started from scratch, where did you get your first traffic from? Social media, a blog, Pinterest, something else?

I am thinking about trying affiliate marketing (specifically Amazon).

I have seen a lot of youtube videos recently saying its worth it but you only have 3 months. Is it worth it?
