Building Viraex in public | 7 years as a business owner → now SaaS | Racing to $5K MRR to stay in Australia | Day 0. Come watch.
Where money's flowing in AI?

- creators using AI to scale their content (example, I use https://superx.so/?via=invitation to level up my X)
- Dev, building micro-SaaS to solve a specific problem.
- marketers with AI-powered campaigns
- old-school businesses, integrate AI

What do you do?

"Submit" is the worst button text you can write.

What works:

❌ Submit
❌ Sign up
❌ Click here

✅ "Join 387 creators on the waiting list"
✅ "Get early access"
✅ "Start my free trial"

First person ("my" not "your") outperforms by 25%.

Small words. Big impact.

I discovered something cool

Breaking a 6-question form into 3 steps = 40% more completion rate.
Why?

Step 1: Low barrier (just email)
Step 2: Core questions (they're already invested)
Step 3: Details (commitment is made)

Once started, you want to finish

Psychology > Design.

Twitter is good. But it's 10x better when you connect with people who actually build new businesses and AI tools.
If you're into viral content, bootstrapping SaaS, or real growth strategies, say hi 👋

I've been researching how to validate a business idea.

Found something called the "150 Rule":

If you can't get 150 people interested in your idea, it's probably not worth building.

Not 150 customers. Just 150 people who say "yeah, I'd want that."

Simple. Brutal. Useful.

Hello people! 🙌

The real skill isn't knowing what to do. it's showing up when 90% already quit

Hey people!!

I spent 4 hours digging into the best marketing brains and a bit of psychology.

The Viraex landing page brief that came out of it just feels special.

Also combining Alex Hermozy, Sabri Suby and Daniel Priestly,

Honestly, I love how clear it feels now.

Onwards!

I have lived in Australia for about 9 years, and run my biz for 7
Sold it Nov 2024.
Then my relationship ended, and with that my visa got rejected....(sad story)

Most people would leave.

I'm building a SaaS instead.

$5,000 MRR = I get to stay.

This is Day 0. Follow along.

Day 1: Set up the landing page for Viraex.

3 hours of work. Not perfect, but it will be alive soon to have people in my waiting list.

I still need to work on it and also is anyone can suggest me what to use to collect email? Should I code a dashboard?

$0 / $5,000 MRR

Why I'm building in public:

- Forces me to ship
- Connects me to people who can help
- If I fail, at least I learned out loud

The alternative? Build alone in silence and hope it works.

No thanks.😁

there is something off about this design - it's the vertical text alignment

this new CSS feature just made aligning text 100x easier

I saw this and I want to share, because this is literally my 2025 as an entrepreneur in Australia. Wow what a year!!
