Damn, thats a real smart entrepreneur right there! Mans wasnt thinking close minded and demanding the youtube channel using his voice take the videos down or give him a cut. Instead, he took inspiration from it and developed his own voiceover app. Love it! 💪🏻

3:52 - Using that sound is always dirty.

You advertise your side hustle in a video about side hustles, while the video is already your side hustle.. 🤑

Ads don’t usually provide value in return for our time and attention, but this video did.

I've been building a game for 7 years and nobody has played it except me. Your opening hit hard.

I feel like this guy pushes changes directly to prod. And feels good doing it

This felt less like a guide and more like a portfolio highlight reel.

Nice way of promoting your own side-hustle by also bringing value to the community. Kudos

The coding themed sir mixalot parody rap at 2:30 was sheer brilliance and damn near killed me 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Awesome video, very energizing! One problem with products that can be built so easily by composing them from other third-party services is that there is really low barrier to entry and replicate your app. You have to work on locking licensing deals with celebrities as that's something that cannot be replicated so easily. Again, cool video and good luck!

My experience mirrors yours so strongly it literally hurts, mostly because I am not yet rich af.
