Gonna be honest with you #buildinpublic. Our launch failed! . Nobody on our waitlist decided to pay the $15/mo for Thinksy 😭. What's next?.- Find out how to add at least $15/mo of value to our customers.- Determine if we need to pivot.- Create demos to show clear value.

We've come a long way from s4 of @_nightsweekends. In August was just a "toy". Completely hardcoded in the backend with fake data. Now we have multiple tiers, integrations, and real users. AND we're #10 on @ProductHunt today! 😸. Life is good!

no luck passing the @speedrun interview this round 💔. but they were able to give us great feedback right away . tl;dr distribution is the hardest part of any startup, have a solid/detailed answer when asked how you'll break into a saturated market!.

X is filled with so many success stories, sometimes I start to feel down about how much time @CalliFuch and I have put into our product with $0 in MRR. But that's okay!!. I have to always remind myself it's NOT easy to find product market fit, and all I can do is remind myself

So cool to see @that_igor_ on @thisiskp_'s podcast! 💰 . 🧠My personal takeaways:. 1. Your personal branding is incredibly important.2. Post daily! .3. There are SO many tools (like @mmntm_build) that we can use to accelerate our growth (idea -> landing page 🏃♂️) . #buildinpublic.
🚨 New Episode Alert 🚨. Today, on @buildinpublic_ pod's Million Dollar Exits Ep.6 is @that_igor_, CTO @paralect. We covered a range of topics like his founder journey, why sponsoring creators is a high leverage move, AI, no-code and even Naval . Link below👇

Are you trying to solve too many problems at once with your product?. Chances are you're diluting its value that way. "Multifunctional products often fail because they seem less instrumental for each of their functions" - @ayeletfishbach . #buildinpublic.

🫣 Hey, Twitter! I've been MIA for a little while. I'll admit I burnt myself out working on the alpha release for Thinksy, working my day job and getting this out was no easy feat. I'm back reenergized and ready to tackle our new idea for a Thinksy pivot!💪. #buildinpublic.

Was feeling a little low about the waitlist numbers 😔. Then realized getting 50 signups out of 366 unique visits is pretty dang good (~13%!). This whole startup thing is an emotional rollercoaster 🎢. Crazy what we've done in just 1 month!. #buildinpublic

good news: our cold email strategy is getting opens!. bad news: they hate us 😂. in all seriousness, it's all a part of the process. once i let my ego aside i can take this as valuable feedback -- we're not serving this market how they need and it's time to learn from this ❤️

had $0 MRR in 8 months. Our limited spots for coaching sold out in 48 hours. I realized we were forcing software as a solution too early and instead needed to start by solving the problem in ways that don't scale first. @CalliFuch and I are going to keep
