Less than a day until we launch on Product Hunt
I'm not worried about rankings
I'm worried about whether this actually helps someone
That's the only metric that matters
Awesome Directories → 300+ curated launch directories → Open source

not bad... not bad at all for spending an hour a day on social media marketing..
without drowning myself too much into this, I still get to get online, interact with people, learn from their journeys and their insights..
I'm happy with the result

200+ cold LinkedIn messages.
2-3 weeks of outreach.
0 calls booked.
Customer discovery is humbling.
After my first SaaS flopped (2 months, 0 customers, $0), I made a rule: no code until someone's ready to pay.
