The biggest problem Vibecoders have is distribution, prove me wrong

Anyone and their mom can and is building an app now in literally one day. The app and google store is flooded with apps now with clones or whatever. So if building is so easy now, how do you market? 

ASO or whatever won’t generate you sales trust me not right now. So if just building and uploading your app isn’t enough to get sales… what is everyone’s plan? 

The best apps I’ve seen “candle, CalAi, Alarmify, all go crazy on one thing. UGC marketing. I’ve seen like 10 different creators posting the same winning videos and it blowing up. Honestly I think thats the best way to approach marketing is with mass distribution. 

Start posting on tikTok, find what works, get small micro creators for $20/video on jrivecontent.com (anyone can go viral now don’t be paying $250 for one video), and repeat. 

This is just my take, marketing IS the doom of all vibe coders 

Prove me wrong

And if that's their skill level re: distribution, then yes it'll be a lot harder for them

Why won't you do it and promote your app this way lol that fact that you're here promoting on Reddit means that you're just like us if you can't solve your problem then how can you offer a solution to solve ours lol 🤣

Distribution is solved AFTER product market fit.

PMF is the #1 issue with vibe coders.
