What if Monday morning you could wake up to your first paying customer?
Most founders spend months perfecting their idea while someone else ships their "imperfect" MVP and starts collecting real feedback. The biggest barrier isn't coding—it's overthinking.
Last month, I watched a founder go from Reddit lurker to Product Hunt #3 in 52 hours. No team. No meetings. Just smart tools and the courage to ship fast.
His secret? He treated building like a sprint, not a marathon. By Sunday night: working micro-SaaS, 200+ signups, first $47 in revenue.
After 6 months perfecting this process (and building GetPrompts with 1000+ AI prompts), here's what I learned:
Friday: Find your unfair advantage. Don't start with an idea—start with people you understand. What communities do you belong to? What problems do you complain about?
Saturday: Validate with AI. Use Perplexity for market research, get strategic with specialized GPTs, then ask AI to roast your idea with 25 brutal questions.
Sunday: Build and ship. Tools like Lovable, Bolt, or v0 can turn your PRD into a working app in hours. Connect Supabase for backend, add AI APIs for intelligence.
The weekend builder's motto: Function over form. One feature done really well beats ten features done poorly.
I have published a comprehensive article on Substack that outlines all the steps required to go from 0 to 1. Check it out in the comments section below
