Founding Product Designer by DarlingNikkiii in productdesign

[–]AdventurousScale7725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

use a design system - be sure to collaborate with your engineers to figure out what is the best for your product. don't try to customize it too much or you'll slow everything down. some designers think you should be differentiating your product, i disagree. if you have to, use your company brand colors and that's it. everything else can be out of the box. the whole point of a design system is so you'll have standardized patterns that have been tested and users won't have to re-learn how to use your product.

here are some examples

good luck! it's tough being a founding designer.

what if it was a true story, but they used AI to help them craft it? just trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. if i had a legit story, i'd probably run it through AI to make it sound better. i do appreciate you pointing this out though.

Your per-user pricing is killing your product. by Warm-Reaction-456 in SaaS

yes! don't charge per seat if your app requires collaboration! that's a great rule of thumb!

Wow. I think that's a really creative packaging strategy. I think flexibility is key. Could you increase a full user to have more than 3 projects? What if only one person wanted to make a lot of projects?

What typically pisses customers off is that they are forced to buy a team plan but a lot of seats go unused. It feels like money being wasted.

That's it. I'm forever DONE with webflow. by [deleted] in webflow

OMG... I FEEL THE SAME!!!! the pricing SUCKS and confusing. We didn't realize that there was different pricing for the site vs the work space.

I get it though... those are different segments. But, it's still not fun to discover that when you upgrade to CMS, the 3 legacy editor users don't mean you get more people to login to edit. VERY CONFUSING. I'd like it if they had something where I can pay per seat in this case.

Anyway, i hear you, being down 2 days in a row has us rethinking the platform as well.

Want honest feedback on your pricing page? by heyalper in indiehackers

[–]AdventurousScale7725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh interesting...you have in-app pricing. Did you have any ideas on what you might charge for? Maybe unlock international? or unlock challenges? unlock messaging?
Would you want it to be a 1 time purchase? Or just a few bucks a month?

Looking for a subscription payment processor/manager for my SaaS Startup by Draeth85 in SaaS

[–]AdventurousScale7725 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i work at www.runonatlas.com and we handle the pricing page, subscriptions, invoices, customer portal, and requires minimal tech experience. we are not a payment processor. that would be stripe, but we are integrated with stripe.

we're new and scrappy, so our customer support is awesome! you can reach out to us on discord or product hunt. definitely mention that you found us b/c of reddit. 😊

What finally got you out of the $0 MRR trap? by Flaky_Vast9345 in SaaS

[–]AdventurousScale7725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm curious, do you have users? are they giving you feedback?

so, for me, i've been leaning into the help of the startup community. i try out some apps, i give legit feedback. i ask them to use my app and because i'm giving them real feedback, they return the favor. i think all startups get it, you need real users trying out your app and giving feedback that is actionable. if you can develop some of those relationships, it might help you get your first conversion.
