**\_tldr\_**

*   i'm building a scheduler for casts (posts) on farcaster
    
*   to do: launch product with a [beearly](https://www.beearly.club/) waitlist + work on cron job
    

**\_launch notes\_**

from week 3 lecture & lab

*   first: this is not 'buildspace hw', it's my own thing, so don't mention buildspace, n&w, s5 or farza too much.
    
*   how to know who your ppl are:
    
    *   trust (e.g. follow, newsletter sign-up)
        
    *   usage
        
    *   money
        
*   ...so you need a call to action (cta) so ppl know what to do to show you they care and want to participate in your projects.
    
*   to build in public, you must "launch" your product over and over to get other people to care. if it's a video, ideally 40 seconds. in a launch, you need:
    
    *   hook / heading / one liner explaining what you're working on
        
    *   description... don't show a bunch of features, focus on the thing that makes it cool and why ppl would wanna be part of it.
        
    *   cta... what do you want ppl to do next to show that they care
        
    
    what does farza look for:
    
    *   what is it?
        
    *   what’s in it for me?
        
    *   is it legit?
        
    *   how do i get it?
        

**\_technical notes\_**

*   use example of [gm-bot](https://github.com/neynarxyz/farcaster-examples/blob/main/gm-bot/src/app.ts) for cron job
    
*   the example uses [node cron](https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-cron)
