Pocket Sergeant’s Post

When I started Pocket Sergeant, I had almost zero experience in app development—or building a business. I was a police officer, working shifts, serving the community. Now, Pocket Sergeant supports tens of thousands of people, and I’ve developed Misper, an app to help find missing people. I’m also building an app I hope will revolutionise the entertainment industry, and I’ll soon be a published author, with my book set to release in March 2025. Recently, I’ve taken on a new side of the business, offering app development and custom-built websites for others. There’s a common narrative that to succeed in business, you need to be an expert from day one. This is NOT TRUE! I wasn’t an expert. I just wanted to create something better. And in many ways, my lack of expertise meant I was a little naive. But naivety is a superpower, not a weakness. Being naive in business means you take risks, push boundaries, and seize opportunities without letting fear hold you back. The best businesses aren’t built by people with perfect plans. They’re built by people who try, learn, and adapt. I’ve failed countless times along the way—whether with features, marketing, or strategy. But each setback has helped shape Pocket Sergeant and Misper into what they are today. So, don’t aim for “perfect” or even “knowledgeable.” Just aim for: 1. Doing something you believe in ❤️ 2. Accepting it’s going to be challenging 🌊 3. Paving your own path 🚀 I’m 💻 Paul Cooper 📱, founder of Pocket Sergeant. I’m here to share my journey of resilience, failure, and redefining success.

I was stuck for years with no growth.. ..because I was focusing on all the wrong things.. Too many creators do this mistake ..they waste hours perfecting the wrong details. → Building a fancy website. → Designing the perfect logo. → Obsessing over business cards. But none of that will make you money. Focus on these instead: → Solve a problem people care about. ↳ If you’re not solving a real pain point, you’ll struggle to grow. → Talk to your audience daily. ↳ Content creation, outreach, feedback. This is your bread and butter. → Build a minimum viable product. ↳ You don’t need a perfect product. You need momentum. Most people quit when things get hard. That’s where they fail. Your job is simple: Show up. Solve problems. Repeat until it works. ---- 👉 I share weekly tips, tricks, and strategies to make it easy for you to start a side hustle and start earning extra income from it.

I took some very risky decisions in life and I don’t regret it any bit.. ..because sometimes your only option is to take a leap of faith! You want to avoid the risk and play it safe. You keep telling yourself: → “It’s not that bad.” → “Just stick it out a little longer.” → “Security is more important than happiness.” But that safe option is destroying you from the inside. Remember, a toxic job does not drain your time. It drains your energy and confidence. So get rid of the things that are stopping you from taking that leap of faith: → playing it safe → comfort zones → limiting beliefs → negative mindset → toxic surroundings → not investing in learning → not building a personal brand Sometimes you just need the courage to start! Start now! --- 👉 I share weekly tips, tricks, and strategies to make it easy for you to start a side hustle and start earning extra income from it.

There was a time in my life when I wanted to achieve bigger goals.💫 There was a time in my life when I couldn’t afford a few things.🙂 There was a time in my life when I used to crave financial freedom.💵 When I reflect on those moments now, I see how they have shaped and transformed my life up to the current life stage. They have taught me the greatest lessons of life, which no university, college, or degree could teach me. If I hadn't gone through those experiences, I wouldn't be where I stand today. My two cents based on my learnings. - Invest in a skill set which can return you a lifetime income. - Fear and Regrets are better than Failures - We don't have the patience to work for just 2-3 years to build our business, but ironically, we show patience and dedication to build other's business. The two main traits that enabled me to achieve my dream life are hard work and perseverance. I worked on my passion and encourage you to do the same.

Follow your dreams! Sometimes it’s best to keep your big ideas to yourself and just go for it. Don’t worry about what others think focus on taking action instead. That’s what I did. I worked quietly on my project and ended up making $12k in less than two months, plus gaining over 269k reaches on my Instagram account. Pretty cool, right? The key is to take big steps. Even if things don’t work out exactly as planned, you’ll learn a lot. That’s always a win! I wanted to earn money online but was confused by all the different advice out there. Then I found this great course that taught me how to start an automated online business. It was perfect for beginners and helped me learn so much. I started just hoping to make a little extra cash, but it turned into something much bigger. I even left my engineering job after 2 years, putting my heart and soul into it. If you’re tired of your current situation and want to try something new, this could be your chance. Want to learn more about how I got started? Just comment “Info” and I’ll share the details with you.

I made $171.38 from an article that took 30 minutes to write. In 2019, I wrote my first piece of content that made any money online. That number doesn’t sound like much of anything to you. But it changed my perspective on how to make money. I was used to working dead-end jobs during this time and wanted something better for myself. I felt: • tired • frustrated • confused One Saturday morning, I typed out my ideas. This time I didn’t just keep them to myself. I published it online. Made $171.38 sharing my little thoughts… in 30 minutes. This one decision sparked the journey that would lead me to help brands generate $9M+ in revenue. Most people never get where they want to go because they don’t start. Don’t settle for what is. Envision a future that’s better for yourself. Go after it. The journey always starts with one step.
