    § 00 · Proof, not promises

    I don't just talk about building. Here's what I've shipped.

    Salem is an indie hacker. These are live products he built and runs himself, not tutorials or demos.

    § 01 · The difference

    You don't need a freelancer who disappears. You need a builder who ships with you.

    There's a difference between handing off a brief and watching someone vanish for six weeks, and having someone build your idea with you, in the open. Salem builds live, together, explaining every decision as it happens, the same way he builds his own products.

    Every session is built around one question: "What will exist by the time we're done?" Not what did we discuss. What did we ship.

      Progress recap after every session

      What we built, what's next, sent to you after every session so nothing gets lost.

    6. 06

      It's live. It's yours.

      The last session ends with a launch. You walk away owning a real, working product.

    § 04 · Who's building

    Salem
    Olorundare.

    Indie hacker, software builder, and product partner. Salem doesn't just take briefs. He ships real products, his own (see SurbTrack above) and yours, working alongside you until it's live.

    "I'm not interested in teaching coding in the abstract, or disappearing with your brief for six weeks. I take your idea and we build it, live, together, the same way I build my own products."

    Prefer a slower, teaching-first pace instead of a straight build? Salem also offers dedicated 1:1 mentoring, see the FAQ below.

    § 05 · Frequently asked

    Good questions deserve straight answers.

    Who is this for?+

    Anyone with a project to build: founders, small businesses, teams, and individuals learning by doing. If you have something you want built, Salem can partner with you on it.

    Do I need to know how to code?+

    Not at all, but you don't need to be a beginner either. Salem works with complete beginners and experienced founders alike, adjusting the pace and depth to fit you.

    What exactly does Salem do, build for me or build with me?+

    Both, depending on what you want. The default is building together, live, so you understand and own every decision. If you'd rather Salem run with more of it independently between sessions, that's available too. Just say so on the discovery call.

    Can I bring my own idea?+

    Yes, that's encouraged. Browse the project catalog for inspiration, or bring something entirely your own: a business idea, an internal tool, an app you've been meaning to build.

    How are sessions delivered?+

    Live, over Google Meet or Zoom. Salem shares his screen and builds with you in real time. No pre‑recorded videos, no passive watching.

    How long is each session?+

    Sessions run 60–90 minutes. You'll always leave with something working that you can show off immediately.

    How do I know what project to pick?+

    Book a free 30-minute discovery call. Salem will ask about your goals, your level, and what you're trying to ship, and together you'll scope the right project to start with.

    Can I get a refund if it's not for me?+

    Yes. If after your first session it's not the right fit, you get a full refund, no questions asked.

    Do you work with people outside Nigeria?+

    Absolutely. Sessions are fully remote and timezone‑flexible. Builders from anywhere are welcome.

    Do you still offer 1‑on‑1 mentoring?+

    Yes. If what you actually want is a teaching-first pace, going deep on the fundamentals as you build, Salem offers that as a dedicated mentoring track. Just mention it on your discovery call.
