We built 18,000 followers by documenting every win and loss

Quinn Fukawa, building The most ambitious community on the internet., answers "Describe your customer's worst day before they found you." on 2026-11-04.

This is day one of perfecting my pitch with zero filler words, so I'm not screwed at my next networking event. So me and my co founder, we built an app based around the idea of being a documentarian of your own journey. What we realized is with a lot of entrepreneurs, creatives, and anyone doing anything in the world, they aren't documenting their story. For us, we built community from zero to eighteen thousand followers around helping startup entrepreneurs by telling and documenting our journey along the way. Every win, every loss, every lesson that we ever had. And ultimately, it was one of the biggest ROI activities that we did to build our community. So for a lot of founders, what we found is that many many people aren't doing this. Authenticity is at a premium in this day and age with social media and AI going rampant out there. So much slop, so much BS out in the world. So what we built was a platform to be able to tell your own story with a seamless workflow to be prompted every single day with videos so that you're posting, editing, and cross posting to your other social media accounts all through our app. And most importantly, you're being able... You're allowed to document the journey. Our platform allows you to see every other entrepreneur, every other creative, any... Anybody in the world who is doing something and wants to talk about it. Because at the end of the day, it's so important to put yourself out there and put that authenticity forward because people will follow you regardless. You will always find your community just like we did. And that's what we want for every single entrepreneur and creative and anybody who's doing anything ambitious out there is to be able to tell their story authentically and in real time every single day.
