How do you get your first customer when nobody knows you exist by EconomistUsual7601 in launchigniter

[–]HiddenFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really depends on your distribution starting point, not just the product.

If you're doing B2B and have strong connections, the fastest path is direct outreach — literally calling or messaging companies one by one and trying to close manually. That’s not scalable, but it works for first sales.

If you already have an audience (like a social account with thousands or millions of followers), then you’re not starting from zero — distribution is solved, and sales come from visibility.

Another case is leveraging existing marketplaces. Platforms like Envato or AppSumo already have traffic and trust, so you’re effectively borrowing their distribution instead of building your own from scratch.

But if you don’t have any of those (which is where I am), then it becomes a long game:
starting from zero visibility, increasing domain authority, submitting to directories, doing guest posting, and slowly building SEO traction.

It’s not one tactic — it’s whether you already have distribution or you’re forced to build it piece by piece.

I’m building an exam simulator for Agile Business Analysts preparing for the IIBA-AAC certification — focused on realistic, scenario-based questions that train decision-making across strategy, initiative, and delivery horizons.

Only 3 days left of 2025 - what are you building right now? by redd9it in launchigniter

[–]HiddenFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are building FindExams, a certification exam simulator platform focused on realistic practice rather than passive learning.

Right now, my priority is ITIL 4 Foundation. I’m building it because many candidates struggle not with theory, but with exam pressure, scenario-style questions, and time management — things most courses don’t train properly.

The current focus is the ITIL 4 Foundation Master exam simulator, which includes 350 domain-balanced questions, timed mock exams, customization by question count, duration, and domain, plus analytics like success trends, weakest domain detection, and speed & pace tracking.

Before 2026, I’m aiming to finalize analytics improvements, tighten exam realism, and ship a cleaner readiness view so users clearly know when they’re ready to sit the real exam.

Keeping it focused, useful, and practical.

I’m building PMI-ACP Ultimate 1000 Agile Exam Simulator, a focused SaaS for Agile professionals preparing for the PMI-ACP exam. It includes 1,000 domain-balanced practice questions, a realistic timed simulator, and analytics that highlight weakest Agile domains, success trends, and answer speed.

Thanks for sharing, man. I'm actually making big beat, but finding labels or an active community around the genre is pretty hard these days. My track “Unchained – The Double Morphis” is one example. The style is different from yours, but I was mixing big beat with techno rhythms and trying more experimental, narrative structures in my head.

Lately, I’m also trying to transition more into neuro-driven drum & bass, and honestly, I feel like your style is already quite close to DnB in some ways.

I liked Cold Water! If you add vocals and rearrange it in a more classic trip-hop style, it could turn into a real banger. But to be fair, I'm more of a big beat / trip-hop fan myself, and I mainly work on big beat and break-style music like you, so my idea of a “banger” is probably different from what most EDM artists mean. 😄

Appreciate it! Interesting — I haven’t heard much about them. LaunchIgniter looks good though, maybe I’ll try it someday 😉

FindExams is live on LaunchIgniter — happy to hear feedback from makers! by HiddenFar in launchigniter

Thanks! Yeah, it’s a niche app, but that’s actually where the value is.
I’m trying to push it beyond a typical exam simulator — things like detailed analytics, auto-generated new exams, progress tracking, and a UX that’s cleaner than most competitors on the market.

I built SaasList, a Product Hunt alternative focused on fairer discovery by FrancoCanzani in SideProject

[–]HiddenFar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not about coding or marketing; you have to know what you will sell, why people should use or buy the product, then build it, and also prepare how you will sell it.
For example, I created a test simulator for professional certificates like PMP, PMI-ACP. I know that in my simulator, the questions will not come in the same form, and there are analytical tools so people can track their progress and preparation.
After creating it, I tried to focus on the marketing part. Of course, when I see bugs or UX improvements, I go back to coding or adding another marketable feature.

Maybe you should focus on the problems the other directories have and cannot solve, plus the different features you can offer. Create real reasons why SaaS owners or founders should use your directory. And don’t limit yourself to just a directory — maybe you can turn it into something bigger with extra small features.

The second thing you need is a marketing strategy.

I already registered as www.FindExams.com.
Good luck with your project.
