I’m KP, I’ve built 10+ no-code projects and an audience, now running a no-code fellowship. AMA 🔥

I had a super unconventional journey into tech startups. I worked on the product teams at various Fortune 500s for years before I discovered my love for building products myself. I spent countless hours browsing through Product Hunt but only as a lurker and occasionally commenting on others' work. Eventually, frustrated by my lack of action and inability to write code, I stepped up in 2018 (thanks to the book Atomic Habits) and decided to build tiny teeny projects with no-code. Shipped my 1st project Do Things That Don't Scale in 5 days that became the #1 Product Of The Day which gave me the impetus to continue building a portfolio of over 10 projects — all built in public. Having felt it was time for me to switch from working at corporates to enter the startup arena, I've announced my availability for hire on Twitter and landed an ambitious job at On Deck in public in October 2020 (the back story is here. At my day job, I help hundreds of ambitious no-coders take wild shots and create solutions to solve their problems, and become prolific builders. (If interested, we're finalizing applications for the next cohort that starts on July 10th, apply here My superpowers are creating give-first communities, building a passionate audience on the Internet around specific niches, creating tools with no-code to solve problems I care about and helping advise the next generation of entrepreneurs. 👋 I'll be here on 06/14 at 7 am pt to answer any and all questions about no-code, building in public, working at a high-growth startup, and more.

Hey KP 👋 Thank you for sharing your time today! We know there are lots of ways to build an audience these days. What is your current framework or approach to prioritising the different mediums to use? How would you split your time when you are first starting out? (ie social media, newsletter, blog, podcast...) And once one is chosen, how do you think about structuring your content so you make it a habit? With Gratitude, Ash 🙌

Hey KP! Thanks for doing this AMA. Here's my question: You went from building no-code projects to running no-code fellowship at On Deck. What was the whole journey like? And what advice you want to give for people who are just getting started in no-code and aiming to join ambitious startups?

SUPER pumped for this! Question: Which channel out of twitter, youtube, TikTok, etc. are good means to build in public considering that there is so much noise, which makes it hard: 1. For founders to grab the audience attention 2. For product geek followers (like myself) to not get deviated in all the other content Looking forward to it:)

Thanks for doing this KP! How are you able to balance being a program director at a rocket-ship startup, being a Dad and still have time to be active on Twitter and continue shipping out side projects?

Whats the next big thing in no-code?

Cant do it Monday because of my full time job, but would love to read about your conversations if possible.

Hey @KP, Thanks for doing this. Do you have a go-to framework for market validation? How do you decide success metrics for your products and know when to move on from an idea?
