If I only had one hour a day to build something online,

I would use the hour after Fajr.

A lot of people are going to read the last few emails and think:

Ok cool, I understand what I could sell, I understand how I could make a $27 product, I even understand how I could get my first few sales without an audience… but when exactly am I supposed to do all of this if I have a job, school, kids, a household, or just a normal life?

Fair point.

I did it while I was working a full-time at a healthcare hedge fund and going to college so I get it.

If I only had one hour a day, I would not try to do everything every day because that is how you end up spending one hour doing a little bit of everything and finish absolutely nothing.

I would use the hour based on whatever stage I am currently in.

And I would 99% of the time use the hour after Fajr.

That is almost a non-negotiable for me because it is usually the quietest part of the day, before your brain gets filled with messages, work, family, errands and everybody else’s requests.

I know that is not realistic for everyone so I am just telling you what has worked for me.

My second option has always been the really late hours of the night, once there is no noise. Is that optimal? Probably not. But I have done it in times where that was the only uninterrupted time I had. Do I recommend destroying your sleep every night to build a business? No.

So for me:

Optimal: the first hour after Fajr.
Second option: late at night when nothing makes a noise.

However the main thing is not hoping you somehow “find” an hour during the day.

Choose it beforehand and protect it. You will most likely have to sacrifice something in the day. First look at your screen time to decide if it can be your phone because I am 90% sure it can.

So what stage you at?

I would go where people are already talking about the problem.

Reddit.
Facebook groups.
Instagram comments.
Threads.
YouTube comments.

Whatever makes sense for the niche.

And I would literally just collect what people are asking.

If I am building something around interviews and I keep seeing:

Now I know what people actually care about.

That one hour gave me content ideas, product ideas, and sales-page language.

That is a productive hour.

Give yourself maybe 1 to 3 focused sessions to gather information. Then, choose the strongest problem you understand and test it.

This is the part that can come before the product.

You do not always need to disappear for two weeks, build the entire thing and then come back hoping someone wants it.

If I think I want to make an interview product, I can post:

Then I pay attention.

Are people saving it? Replying? Asking questions? DMing me? Clicking?

If the same topic keeps getting a response, that is signal.

Now I have more confidence that the problem is worth building around.

This is why content and product creation do not have to happen in some perfect order.

Sometimes you build the starter product first because you already know the demand is there.

Sometimes you test the problem with content first. (or see what other content goes viral)

Either way, the goal is the same: stop guessing as quickly as possible.

I would not spend the hour changing colors on Canva.

I would actually move the product forward.

Maybe I write 5 pages. Maybe I create the checklist. Maybe I make the template. Maybe I finish one section. Maybe I go back through the AI-assisted draft and make it sound like me.

The point is that when the hour is over, something should exist that did not exist before.

This is the part people underestimate.

One focused hour is actually a lot if you are doing one thing.

If I spent one hour a day for 7 days, that is 7 focused hours.

The first version of Faceless Million took me roughly 8–10 focused hours.

So no, you do not necessarily need some huge free weekend to get something out.

You need to actually sit down and do the work without checking your phone.

Put the phone in another room!

At that point, building more is probably not the best use of the hour.

I would post. I would email. I would answer questions. I would go into the places where people are already talking about the problem. I would look at what people are clicking. I would see what questions they keep asking. I would pay attention to what makes them interested and what makes them ignore the offer.

And once the product exists, distribution is usually the bottleneck.

You need to do the thing that moves the business forward at the stage you are in. Content creation is one of the easiest ways of getting it in front of people, and I would say that it is my highest ROI activity that I can do with my time.

Which takes me to…

This is probably the biggest thing I would do if I was busy.

If I am already working on the product, that work should become content.
If I am already answering someone’s question, that answer can become content.
If I am already figuring something out, that process can become content.
If I already spent an hour researching what people are asking, those questions can become the next week of posts.

I would not work all day and then at 9 PM suddenly decide I need to “create content” from scratch.

That. is. exhausting.

I would make the work feed the content.

And eventually it all starts feeding itself.

People get way too attached to saying:

“I worked on my business for 3 hours.”

Ok bro… but what did you actually finish?

I care more about:

This is what I would track.

Because one focused hour where something actually gets done is worth way more than 4 hours of “working” while switching between Instagram, Youtube, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, X, Threads, email, Canva and 14 tabs.

And if you are really busy, that is actually good news.

You just need to know what Is the bottleneck right now and use the hour there. If you do not know what to sell, research. If you have an idea but no proof people care, test it. If people care but the product does not exist, build it. If the product exists but nobody sees it, distribute it.

That is how I would build with one hour a day.

And this is also why I made The Faceless Million the way I did.

I do not think you need another massive course that takes you 40 hours to finish before you are even allowed to start. Although there is value in massive courses, it is more so in the details and nitty gritty than the overall message. I want this to be something you can open, use, build from, and actually move with even if your life is busy.

Today is the last day to get it for $27.

At 12 a.m. PST, it goes to $49.

And that is also when the full playbook drops friends (for those who already bought it!!)

If you have been telling yourself you will start when you “have more time,” I would stop waiting for that. You might have to sacrifice something to do this. That's on you to figure it out. I'll tell you in another letter what I sacrificed.

P.S. One focused hour where you finish something is worth way more than 4 hours of “working on your business” with a million tabs open.
