If you do, what is your story, why did you choose this category?

If you do, what is your story, why did you choose this category?

I just read a post on X that mentioned the product created has been copied in 2 weeks and that competitor got invested at the end.

I think there are always a lot of factors to who win the competition, and it makes me wonder how many of us here tried to build in public and how did it go for you.

To be really honest, I am trying to build in public and tried to post on X, but I didn’t manage to get even one reply at all haha, I wonder is it because I am a free user, or using the hashtag wrong. Let me know if you have overcome this.

I am considering getting creator to do promotion.

I want to know how much does it usually cost and what is the process like.

What kind of things do you consider before you choose a creator to work with? Number or views or ability to go viral?

Is it a fix cost per video or based on views?

I don’t have a massive budget, but I want to know if someone tried it and can share some experience.

Thanks!

Me!

I really hope to see more gameplay on 11/8! (From Zero Commando) and I really can’t wait to play it on the day it releases!

- Started and failed 3 products since Feb. Only got one sell and it is from my friend
- Product and Design background
- Experienced: Owned a mobile gaming startup (3 people). Created top free iOS game in Apple installed my game in all their retails store when iPhone X released. Start another startup with friend on B2B, successful product becoming leader in the industry, lead expansion globally and success, company worth £50m+, walk away as VP of product.

The 4th attempt:
A new product idea on manufacturing area.

Along the way, I am building a pipeline that help me find evidence and speed up my validation process, I am aiming to have it run 20 research a day, and see if i can find one to validate it in the next day.

So, if you failed, keep trying! I am too! Keep it positive!

Knowing that there is only one Jedi Padawan, one Mando…etc, once they are gone, they are really gone!

I am going to turn it on in the first run to really experience the crude side of Star Wars!

What about you?

I’ve seen a lot of people said to get someone to paid or validate it on social media and get sign up/ payment before even building the product.

I wonder how people actually do it and if that actually work?

Is like everything sounds straightforward, build ads and landing page with product propositions and value and track the click rate, and user actually click “buy” button (that may say it is coming soon).

However, has anyone actually try that, fail to success and what is the budget you need to run ads each stage? (By stage I mean you may kill it if the metrics are not there, and new stage if metrics are promising)

I don’t have any mainstream social media account like TikTok etc, so I want to see how other does it.

Thanks for sharing in advance.

How often does your exec ask you:
- who someone is,
- how they know them,
- or what happened in the last conversation?

When that happened, where do you normally look for the answer? Or just pull this from memory?

And is this a meaningful recurring pain, or just a small part of the job?

Thanks
