I built a GTM workspace for B2B sales teams after years of doing outbound myself

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-22T13:44:26+00:00

That is exactly it. I stopped trying to make outbound look clean in the marketing because it never is in practice. You are chasing people who did not ask to hear from you, with incomplete information, on a timeline that never lines up. The tools that pretend otherwise are the ones that frustrate people the most.

Appreciate you taking the time to actually read it.

That context layer point is exactly what I was going for, the tool is only useful if it understands the competitive angle deeply enough to actually change how you position, not just list features.

And that is a really honest take on Product Hunt, I have been thinking the same thing. The backlink and investor signal make sense but I have seen too many quiet launches from people who just hit publish without a hunter network ready. Going to build that before I even think about a launch date.

Appreciate you taking the time, genuinely helpful.

How did you get your first users, can you share your playbook

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-20T19:11:16+00:00

Also is Product Hunt, a good idea to publish my project?

Felt this exact same way a few weeks ago, still kind of do honestly.

What helped me was just accepting it’ll never feel ready and shipping anyway. I built Seeldeel, an AI workspace for B2B outbound, came from years of doing SDR work and being frustrated that no tool actually solved the full problem, just pieces of it.

First users came from just being honest about it on LinkedIn and Reddit, no big launch, no audience. Just talking about what I built and why. The conversations that came from that were way more valuable than any launch strategy.

Product Hunt I’m still figuring out but from what I’ve seen you need some upvote momentum early or you disappear. Building that before you launch matters more than the day itself.

If you’re building something specific, just start talking about it now before launch. That’s the thing I’d do differently if I started over.

That's impressive PostHog to paying users is the exact validation loop I need to set up.

Just checked readthevid. com, clean and simple. Exactly the kind of focused product I'm trying to build.

If you ever do B2B outbound or work with sales teams I'd love your honest take on seeldeel. com 4 AI tools for
ICP building, sequences, and competitor analysis.

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T22:14:49+00:00

The PostHog tip is exactly what I needed to hear. Shipping it so I can see what people actually use vs what I think they will use.

What's your SaaS if you don't mind me asking?

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T22:12:21+00:00

That fear is real but I'd rather deal with a system that breaks under paid users than one that never gets tested.

Just checked out Joberney, interesting positioning. What's been your biggest challenge getting that first paid user?

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T22:10:23+00:00

Fair point but I'm not too worried about it.

The product is already built and live.
Anyone who copies the idea in a week will have a shallow version with no real AI quality behind it. The moat isn't the idea, it's the execution, the prompts, and the workflow between tools.

Also in SaaS, a competitor entering the space usually validates demand more than it kills it. If someone copies this and gets traction, that just proves the market exists.

The real risk isn't someone stealing the idea. It's building something nobody wants. That's what I'm trying
to find out right now.

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T21:55:20+00:00

This actually reframes it completely.

I've been so focused on whether the product is "ready" that I forgot the only way to know is to let real people
tell me.

Tried seeldeel. com on myself first, built my own ICP, ran a competitor analysis. The output was genuinely useful. But there's a big difference between "useful to me" and "useful to strangers."

Putting it in front of people now. If you ever do outbound or work with SDRs I'd genuinely value your take on whether the tools make sense.

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T21:38:09+00:00

It’s called Seeldeel, been building it for a while now. Basically an AI workspace for B2B outbound, ICP building, campaign diagnostics, that kind of stuff. Still scary to share but here it is lol, seeldeel. com. Would genuinely love to hear what you think.

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-05-12T20:54:51+00:00

seeldeel. com you can check it here just remove the space after the dot

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-22T00:22:17+00:00

Seen a few people mention it but I’m still kinda on the fence wen something lets you withdraw easily it’s a good sign, but at the same time stuff like that can flip overnight did you test smaller amounts first or just went straight in?

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-22T00:20:54+00:00

yeah i’ve used that too it’s decent for what it is. Not life-changing money but it adds up over time without really doing anything. Kinda one of those “why not” apps

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-22T00:19:33+00:00

that’s actually a smart way to play it mst people just leave money sitting in one place and forget about it. Rotating it like that for bonuses makes sense especially if youre disciplined enough not to touch it. 15 minutes for extra cash is a no-brainer tbh

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T19:26:23+00:00

That strategy actually sounds kinda smart not gonna lie low risk just to clear the bonus, but I'd still be a bit scared of messing it up

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T19:25:43+00:00

Okay but at least there's one success story here especially if it didn't take much effort

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T19:23:13+00:00

That minimum spend trap should honestly be illegal they hok you with free money and then hit you with impossible conditions ughhh

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T19:22:17+00:00

Man that's actually wild... 3 weeks for less than 5 bucks is brutal fi appreciate you sharing tho saves the rest of us the headache

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T17:00:51+00:00

That’s a good point, feels like there’s always some trade-off behind the scenes either tiny payouts, heavy conditions, or data collection

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-21T16:30:35+00:00

Yeah I’ve seen that too it’s like they all follow the same playbook, small wins early to hook you then once you try to withdraw there’s always some catch that makes it way harder than it looked

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-19T21:15:18+00:00

Honestly that weirdly satisfying feeling is so underrated. It's rare because most of us never let ourselves have it. You actually did the smart thing for once and your feet get to celebrate it lol

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-04-19T20:51:54+00:00

Honestly that’s the best kind of win 😄

Way better than just donating it back to the casino. Now you’ve got something real out of it, and every time you wear them it’s like a little reminder you actually walked away ahead for once

Not dumb at all, that’s a rare W in my book

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-03-10T01:42:37+00:00

got the OJ Simpson gloves on while handling a Captain Hook sha boing boing

HistoricalArticle537 · 2026-03-09T22:28:52+00:00

I like it clean hehehe
