I was making $100k/month and then got keyword banned overnight. Back to zero. Now I'm building CodePrepped.com from scratch, living off savings with a wife and two boys. I landed interviews in 7 days using my own methods while senior engineers struggled for months/years. Follow along for the journey 🎥

Is vibe coding from your phone genuinely useful, or just a flex?

For context I use @bot on the go and it's invaluable for little fixes especially, SEO/AIO related or to do with fixes you do all the time

Is a narrow ICP a growth constraint, or the thing that makes outreach work?

Gemini reportedly has around 25% of the market. Yet I barely see it in people's workflows. What am I missing?

if Anthropic/OpenAI disappeared tomorrow, how cooked are you? 0% → 100%

Starting from zero today. Would you ship the product first, or prove demand with users first?

Personally, i'm deep into my main character syndrome, I'll always build first with deep delusions of grandeur! 😂

470 → 2,000 followers on X in 7 days. No reply grinding. No notification camping. Just 2 hashtags everyone thinks are dead.

Slightly hesitant to put this video out there, but this is the truth. There are much faster ways on X to find your audience, and even with this method, you should filter who you connect with. Not every follow will bring you the long-term results you need, but I didn't want to sit on this and gate it. There are many wonderful people who are frustrated by the prospect of being the reply guy, setting notifications for stupid o'clock to be the first to reply, and it isn't necessary for certain audiences. I hope this video helps at least one person who's been daunted/struggling with it; that's the goal!
