The VAST majority of software products fail. #1 way to prevent that
As a marketer, especially of new apps, I see projects fail constantly. Or if they don't completely fail, they burn up so much more money than they should in the beginning, just trying things out. Recently I saw a site shut down after they got 2 patents and were in business over 2 years. They could not find a buyer either. So much time, energy, emotion, and money, all down the drain! If you have a programming friend who made side projects for friends with "great ideas," just ask the your programmer friend how many of those projects succeeded. It's almost always zero. Yes, there have been tons of products that were built without taking the advice I'm about to give you, but there have been MANY MORE products that failed without having done so. You hear about the rare successes. But you don't hear about the MANY more failures. What is the advice? Do NOT build a new product without talking with a marketer! Even better... talk to a marketer in the niche your product is for. Even better... add a marketer in your niche as a business partner,if you can't afford to pay a lot of consulting fees. Even better... don't think your ideas are the greatest. If you're not going to invest time and money into making NDAs and doing surveys to test your idea, start with a marketers' idea instead of your own. Marketers have their finger on the pulse of the market. They are constantly listening to the market. They are constantly testing things to see what works. And.... they always have software idea they know their audience would like.

You're Using Claude Code Wrong (And Losing Hours Because of It)
Look, I've been using Claude Code for a few months now and I just realized most people are doing it backwards. Everyone's just throwing vague prompts at it like "build me a login system" and then spending forever going back and forth fixing stuff. There's a better way. Write the damn spec first. I'm serious. Before you even open Claude Code, spend 20 minutes writing out what you actually need. Requirements, edge cases, how the API should work, what errors to handle. Just a markdown file. Nothing fancy. Then (and this is the part nobody talks about) you point Claude Code directly at that spec file. "Implement the auth service in auth-spec.md." That's it. What happens next is honestly kind of wild. It reads the whole thing, sometimes asks you questions if something's unclear, then just builds it. Multiple files, proper error handling, tests that actually make sense. Because it knows exactly what you want. No more asking - actually can you change this fifteen times. No more - I forgot to mention we need to handle OAuth too. The spec is right there. And here's the thing that sold me: your specs don't disappear into some Google Doc graveyard. They live with your code. When you need to refactor three months later, the spec is still there telling you what the hell you were thinking. Try it once. Write a proper spec, save it as a .md file in your project, and tell Claude Code to build from it. You'll get why everyone who does this won't shut up about it.

He Built His SaaS for $500 Instead of $23K
So I grabbed coffee with my buddy Rohan last week, and his story is kind of wild. He's been sitting on this enterprise SaaS idea in the HRTech space for months. Good idea too - validated with potential customers. But he can't code much. So he started getting quotes. The developer route? > Senior devs wanted $120K-150K a year plus equity. Even juniors were $80K+. But it's not just the salary - it's the commitment. What if it doesn't work? He was worried about bleeding cash every month on payroll while trying to figure out if anyone will pay for his product. Dev agencies? > Cheapest quote: $23,000. Most expensive: $47K. Timeline? 3-4 months. And any changes after delivery? Extra. Always extra. Then he found this AI coding thing. He took a $500 course on Agentic spec coding - basically using specialized AI agents to build software without being a developer. A month later, he had a working MVP. Not a prototype. An actual product he's testing with real users. The math: - Devs: $120K+ per year - Agency: $23K, months of waiting - His way: $500, one month What surprised him most: The speed, flexibility, and scalability. With an agency, every change takes days or weeks of negotiation. Now he iterates in hours. Idea in the morning, tested and fixed by dinner. This isn't magic. Rohan had frustrating nights because of the lack of experience with spec coding. Things broke. You still need to understand what you're building - the AI doesn't think for you. But if you're scrappy? This is viable. Three years ago, non-technical founders had to learn to code for years or raise money. Now there's another path. Not replacing developers for complex stuff, but for getting an MVP out there? Completely different game. Rohan's product isn't perfect. But it exists. People are using it. Built for the cost of a used iPhone and a month of late nights. What would you build if you didn't need to raise $500K first?
