Hola builders, dreamers & doers,
Side hustles have played a career-defining role in my life 🙌🏼
When I first got started with it five years back, little did I know that it will:
1. Help me network + build relationships with the top founders & investors out there
2. Help me land jobs at pay(>$100k) that I hadn't imagined was possible 🤑
3. Help me build an audience(Go from 300 to ~10k) 🐦
4. And, helped me turn a side hustle into a startup
This is not just me. There are hundreds & thousands of people around the world who have reaped the upsides of building side hustles.
At the same time, millions of people are sitting on the fence and cannot take the plunge to get going with their side hustle.
It is NOT a surprise though, because to build a side-hustle and to actually get it going, there'a a LOT that needs to fall in place:
a) You need to be consistently motivated
b) You need to find collaborators
c) You need a support system that will help and unblock you everytime you are stuck
Things are changing from today!
Presenting Build 🔥
A 4-week cohort + community that will help you launch your side hustle irrespective of your background 🚀
Over the last ~18 months, we have enabled 500+ builders to get over the line and now taking the build revolution global. Our builders have:
i) Collectively built 100+ side-hustles & made ~$50k in side-income
ii) The side-hustles have gotten acquired
iii) Built large audiences, gotten multiple job offers & more because of their side-hustles
As we take this revolution Global, there is no better place than PH we could think of in order to enable more people to build 🙏
We are here all day if you have any questions or want to understand more of how this works.
And yes, there is a special scholarship for all the Product Hunters ❤️
Really like this concept. the price point is a bit high for me personally but i think it's probably just about right for plenty of folks, and it's really a fantastic idea!
Prashant and the team have done a wonderful job in creating something which has enabled hundreds of folks to build side projects.
If I talk about my personal experience, it will be a whole blog, but to give you a just about it,
- unique experience
- great bunch of folks around you
- awesome community
- More than 100% ROI
- and I believe it's way far better than any online course you do these days.
- This is one of the journeys where you will feel the adrenaline rush.
*Don't miss out on this*
In case you still have any doubts, feel free to share my experience.
@aashray_singhal Thanks again, Aashray! It's also super inspiring to see your side hustle journey with the launch of Community Hunt :)
Love what you do!
The idea is good and the landing page clearly communicates on what to expect. Congratulations on the launch! and do you have any partners apart from mentors who help you in this process?
I always wanted to build something on my own but couldn't figure how it's done until I explored Build community almost an year back.
So far, I have built & involved in building more than 10+ products. If you're someone who's on the same path, definitely checkout Build.
Happy to chat about my experience over a DM on twitter.
@akhilbvs I've observed your journey quite closely from the beginning of joining Build.
I liked how Letterhunt went from 0 to Idea to Design to Launch in a span of a couple of weeks. It really shows how side projects can have infinite upsides. There is so much of serendipity in this :)
A year back when I joined Build, I had never built anything. 18 months later, I have built multiple products and have seen some significant changes in my career.
Today, I am glad to bring Build with the awesome team to the world to enable even more people to launch a side hustle.
We are here all day if you have any questions or want to understand more about how this works.
It's been more than a year since I've been a part of this community and hands down this has been one of my best investment that I've ever made to upskill myself. Excited to see build going places!!!
This was long due! Congratulations on the launch Prashant & team 🎉
Build has been one of the biggest catalysts in enabling hundreds of builders, including myself, to explore, build and overcome the inertia of going from 0 to 1. The Build Community is one of the best communities out there - Grateful to have joined Build in Cohort 2 ✨
More than anything, Build has been the source of a mindset shift for me!
Being a recent graduate, I didn’t even apply for campus placements. Why? Because I started to believe that my skills and the proof of work will speak for themselves. And Build gave me the confidence & the validation that I was correct.
Lo and behold! Here, I was introduced to my current full-time role & a community that I’m running on the side. The best part? These opportunities approached me, rather than me looking out for them! 🤯
I came in to C5 with an idea - to build a reading accountability platform. Thanks to the community, it moulded into a completely different form, one which I couldn’t have possibly imagined. All I then did was properly document the details in a Notion doc, which - again thanks to community - reached the eyes of Swapnil. That’s how I became a part of Reademy Cafe.
And then my collaborations on a few projects as a frontend developer marketed my skills. Akhil was kind enough to reach out with an offer for Asset Money. That’s where I’m working full-time now.
It’s been a game changing experience for me and I’m sure is going to be for a lot of other people too!
Build is hands down the best investment I have made in the last two years.
I have built 10+ products to date, and still many are in progress.
@nitprashant ensures everyone is motivated to build and actually launch a product by the end of the cohort.
Love this so much, especially since there's a community behind it that can give constant support and guidance. I think it's a great concept, and I haven't heard of it being applied to side hustles. Which I think it's great, more and more people should have side hustles and other streams of income besides their job, especially now when the economy is uncertain.
You did a fantastic job, keep up the good work, team @nitprashant@shreyas_prakash1@gayatri_taley@utkarsh_bhimte@akhilbvs@niti_shree2!
I’ve been a part of the community for 8 months now. I can vouch for the positive impact on my ability to ideate, create and monetise side-projects.
All of this AND a network of like-minded, skilled and growth oriented people makes being a part of this community a recipe for success.
Would 10/10 recommend. 🙌🏻
The best community that I got to be a part of! Helpful, kind, passionate, and driven 🌱
Met the most amazing "Builders" here and the growth was off the charts!
100% recommended🚀
Congratulations to all builders of build for showing support to the community and shouting out every second of last year for each of us.
Thanks to Ankur Warikoo post which introduced me to Prashant's initiative over a year back. After launching multiple projects, I gives me enough confidence to now think up, find collaborators and launch, sometimes even on my own all in few days, one project I launched in 5 hrs.
The great thing about this community is they love to build, nobody pulls you down, there is not hate and everyone helps.
Thanks to Build team who has kept going and enabled the platform to go global. All the makings of a true global platform.
All the best Build team.
It's been one year since I joined build and it was one of the best decisions I took. Within one year I've made countless friends and launched a lot of projects.💖
There's no community out there that can match the fun and energy here.🔥
I feel proud to be a part of the Build community and will recommend it to everyone who wants to start building things.
Congratulation on the Launch team!🚀
Hola @nitprashant ;) Ther are still a lot of problems in the world that need to be solved, and it's good that Build was built. Can't wait to see many Build-through products from PH in the future.
Congrats on your launch 🚀
I've been a part of Build for quite some time and this is the place where I learnt how to come up with ideas for side projects, grow them and network.
Build enabled me to get my first $ from my side projects and so far I've shipped 5+ projects and networked with a lot of awesome folks.
The motivation, the energy, the encouragement you'll get in the community is unmatched.
Definitely recommend it to anyone who is looking to go the next level.
This product looks amazing!
I have submitted an application a few weeks ago hoping to get accepted.
I have always wanted to build my own product but didn't really know where to start, joining this awesome community will hopefully help me achieve that.
