"Built in 5 hours".... has been coding for 15+ years. Every overnight success takes years. Love the content! :)
There is always a hidden story .
did you honestly think a person with no ability to code can create an app in a day?
Exactly!
To build that in 5 hours He had to spend hours in refining that "building in 5 hr" skill
@@nasiffuad292 I think he probably built the website and front end if 5 hrs lol.
Only after building the app in his head for a year, did he write it in 5 hours. Overnight success takes time.
Great channel: you find interesting stories, tell them well, ask good questions, and let your guests answer them. Excellent work Pat.
Again love your format man, its useful and inspiring at the same time.
This is so motivating! I can't wait to incorporate some of these strategies into my own app development journey. Brilliant work!
Absolutely inspiring to see Dawson's journey from 9-5 to a $1M app. For entrepreneurs looking to emulate his success, remember the importance of validating your app idea with potential users before diving into development; it can save you months of work and significantly increase your chances of success. Focus on solving a real problem and the revenue will follow.
He's so down to earth and nice! These kinds of people deserve success the most :)
This is so inspiring. Especially as an entry level developer looking to get into the industry. Dawson's story makes me almost want to just pursue projects I'm interested in and seeking a more meaningful source of income versus grinding leetcode.
You can do both! Make sure you're pursuing projects on the side to keep that spark. If you ignore the drive to pursue the fun things that drive can die over time.
Love it! This channel is legendary ❤🔥
Dawson's journey from building a million-dollar app in just a day to traveling the world and finding inspiration in Australia is truly remarkable! His innovative approach and perseverance are an inspiration to aspiring entrepreneurs. 🚀
5:05 Knew the problem waited a few weeks to let ideas bounce around then built the solution at the last second.
keep up the great work my man
Someone's got a new editor or editing on this one is 🔥
Great content keep up the good work brothers
I found the introduction to be a tad bit too slow, but the vid was awesome! Great job Pat.
That's really cool. I didn't even know about airdrops. Looks like a really solid bussines he built.
wow i learned so much! thank you for this inform! I need to be more open minded. Dawson Botsford is pretty awesome.
Very insightful interview. Well done
Yes, interesting. Thank you for the motivation and learning.
The Solo Journey can be tough!
immediately subscribed. great channel!
Very Interesting what are you using to host and is it autoscaling well for these numbers.
Great story and advice!
No one might probably know the true intelligence that a developer carries with him/herself its just unmatched
Amazing content, how much is the subscription to the 4000 case studies?
I'm glad he tapped into what is meaningful in life.
This is the result of many years of experience in the field of programming,not a few hours or not in one or two years
That excitement on his face at 10:10
The link isn't working. I can't access the downloadable guide, it says "This site can't be reach."
Everyone knows the Mustache is the reason he became successful.
Been living in Bali for over 4 years now... What he says at 11:50 is so true!
Awesome video! Super inspiring and definitely motivated me as a developer. p.s what a handsome dude at 2:59
Haha!
hey, by any chance do you require a video editor ?
Crazy man love this channel so much❤🔥❤🔥
Hey mate are you also in coding? Actually I am finding person's to start something out?
Thank you for the story
I signup but i never received those solo dev report. Can you help ?
I am glad he found his purpose but how much did he lose out on by leaving Uber?
Awesome story and great video
Why is everyone pointing out the obvious? 😂 Ofc, a person who has no coding experience or any skill whatsoever can make an app in 5 hours then end up making 1M. Take this story as an inspiration. You don’t know how to code? Then start learning! Don’t know anything about opening a business? Then go learn! Don’t know what problem to solve? Go look for problems. I am 2.8yrs in my career as a software engineer and I have finally found a problem to solve 🙏🏽 perhaps, I will one day be in one of these videos 🤘🏽 Great work Pat!
bro is living a dream life
A daily follower from Fatick Senegal West Africa 🎉
Man, what a lovable guy
No link to his Ethereum site?
I know Pat is technical himself so it must’ve been cool talking tech stacks with Dawson
The person who edited this video is an amazing editor
The video is amazing and storytelling is amazing too
wow gained lot of knowledge
Love your content.. avid watcher
Looks like a clickbait video
Yea bro , Crypto thing is not for normal lifestyle peoples its for isolated ones
I will watch it later.
Who came after reading $1M 😂
Everyone
Everyone
literally everyone dude. Kinda logic no?
I'm going to be the 100 person to say this: " The best things that you code are the ones where you think a lot before even touching the keyboard "
Great video
Some bros take their exit and buy a Lambo, the fact he bought a Sprinter made him even cooler.
You built arivecan?
You always don't explain how businesses work. How does he find companies which offer airdrops? Airdrops are usually raffles. Only several people will receive money, right?
I curently have $8k in airdrops. Liquidated 4k and about to stake the rest, And I didn't even know about it haha
DAWSON!!!!
i relate to him a lot!
Used this - got a good amount😊
For a lot of years, I was not so fan about Dawson as an actor, I think I was a bit jaleous because he dates a girl that I like Katie Holmes. But I’m very fan about Dawson as on entrepreneur, he changes his hair color for blond to blanck, cut it, which is a good idea, and make very inspiring project. I never though I will said that before but YOU ROCK DAWSON ✨
are you sure he dated Katie?
Glad you asked him what coding tools and languages he used, now I know.
They deleted last video?
long story short. man added commission to claim your unclaimed bonuses. and starter story is 700$ to access
Witnessing a scam artist…
Hi, Great Video! I tried to download the Free Guide but the page has a problem, can send the guide or help me? thank!
That's a Dodge van not a Sprinter van 😊
Hi, I'm actively looking for a community. I'm not good at thinking ideas and always have thought about myself. Hope to find a community that are welcome for beginner developer.
Cool guy. Very authentic!
Okay, but can we talk about how he turned those free users into a million-dollar revenue stream? That's like turning water into crypto gold!
So inspiring :)
"Anti-email strategy" C'mon just say I didn't spam users with unwarranted emails. Conversion rate was through the roof not because of "Anti-email strategy" its because it involves people recovering their money. Regardless, good job on the app.
He was a computer scientist, takes a lot longer than 5 hours to acquire his skills.
i cant even do my laundry bro
As a software developer & Engineer with 10 Years Experience . Making an App in 5 Hours, I believed you already Bro 😆
genius!
great guy!
loved the story; but I'm confused on why COLLECTING FINANCIAL AIDS FOR NON-PROFITS VIA ETHEREUM would be a big thing in the first place? with normal technologies (not blockchain) is it too hard to do the transactions for non-profit organization? Can someone explain what am I missing out on?
I love his story. But this is something 90% of people cant do. He needed to have lots of funds to do this. You can tell he was lucky although there is work he had to put in. Just my personal view
What is the minimum that people would believe? 1 hour? 10 mins?
So what did he code it in?
He said it in the video. Typescript + Node.js + Next.js in vscode
What we see "5 hours" What we didn't see: "15 years of coding" Overnight success takes years.
you have removed the video which u publish after this video...we want that
I saw him win a hackathon for it
Which one?
"American discover software exists outside of San Francisco"
Is it possible to create app with ai and also have zero knowledge about coding?
It's advisable to get someone on your side that's good at coding to provide you some guidance, but aided with AI and the Internet you can definitely make a start!
@@sachsuccess okay bro thanks
No. You can use nocode tools, but they have a steep learning curve. Using AI will create an app that is buggy and unmaintainable
I built nothing but big belly in just no time.
man living the dream
What dream?
I built a 1M app in 5 hours while sleeping !
I have no idea what an airdrop is

Stopped at crypto 0:17
I want to start seeing entrepreneurs who have zero coding experience AND zero marketing experience AND don’t know a thing about manufacturing. It seems like they always have experience in one of these.
they exist, but they failed thats why no mentions
if you have no skills you not going to get far in business, take the time to learn and acquire skills so you can be successful
I want to see people in the NFL with zero skills, make sense?
That is the point, you have to have a skill otherwise your success rate is near zero it might happen but it is very very rare.
It's like you want a fighter without any fight skills. If you want to start s SaaS company, you better learn how to code OR learn how to use a no-code tools. Marketing, yes, you'll probably have to learn how to do it as well, otherwise, how will people get to know your product?
he is SuperMario!
OMG if I knew that before ... 1,300 dollars claim expired forever ..
🤔 Previous video was $1M website. 🤔 This video is $1M app. 🤔 Both a very similar... 🤔 DID YOU HIRE THIS GUY?
At the end of the day he got us to view his channel which is likely his primary source of income not his website so he already won by getting the engagement. Financial KZhead cpm funds all of these guys to make viral videos not to care about the truth. There's lack of proof for any of this guys claims other than the guys word or his own websites etc. This makes me question if its the same for "4000" huge success stories we hear about. There are definitely some true successes among the pile but remember they're incentivised to be exaggerated, increasing everyone's perceived quality and he only has to show the more convincing ones ;). Idk this guy summarises other people's work and asks for 1.1k. To sweeten this deal he says he'll give you goal reminders. If you want you could also talk to other package buyers and learn his basic online courses in writing emails, improving seo and "how to think about business ideas". There are more on the way tho ☠
@@3pints YES. When someone makes real wealth... KZhead is no longer a priority! Especially because, youtube is a hustle, not a dedicated form of employment.
@@MinaMan01 You're not getting the point I'm talking about. He charges 1.1k to literally read business articles and do very basic courses. The point I'm making is this is never gonna give anyone a return from their investment. His channel literally sells other peoples stories without questioning them. You don't notice anything even a little off about that?
@@3pints Ohh I get it. IT'S A SCAM!
sam altman took openai 10yrs to be profitable. reality check for would be tech-preneurs.
Just franchise a paywall for the jiber jabber...
Make it hackproof and go cardano
Very inspiring and depressing at the same time (That moment when you notice you're just not smart enough to accomplish anything similar...)
nice
What's "Phish Hack" hahaha
