How did you scale your product. When do you know you need to pivot?

This is my first time working on a Saas product, and I have no idea what I'm doing. For some context, I'm building a stock newsletter platform, checkbox.money . And in the first couple of months, while working on an MVP, I had my friends use the product for usability tests and such. But now that I want to market and launch, I have no idea what direction to go. How did you scale your first successful Saas, and if you couldn't initially, what move/pivot did you make to make it successful?

I felt burnt out from work, so I created a stock newsletter service

Hey all, I recently launched my first website called checkbox.money, it's a platform that allows users to subscribe to different newsletters related to stocks and the market.

As a casual investor, I wanted to create a platform that could just summarize all the noise from the news out there related to the stocks I pick. Eventually, it became something more than just that.

I decided to build this as a side project since I felt burnt out from my job as an SWE. The transition to using AI in the workplace really sucked the joy out of what I felt was fun in coding. At some point, I was fed up and just decided to build something on my own and see how far I could take it.

Anyways, please take a look and let me know what your thoughts and opinions are 🙂
