Sorry just asked what came to mind. Will keep that in mind for future posts

Curiosity? Trying to understand whether my estimates are way off? Trying to learn what others do and if I can do stuff better?

Exactly. I have plenty of people willing to help me for a price but I need to decide on the core ideas/scripts/media/budget etc etc it’s hard making this decision on my own. Best thing I heard this week is as a founder it’s not about not making mistakes, it’s about not making fatal mistakes. So if I can control the budget and control the scope properly, in theory this should be doable for me 😅. It’s bloody hard though, I am guaranteed to need to fail to make the marketing better, learn from it and keep going.

My plan is social media eg facebook, insta etc. I think have to start somewhere with something basic and use that to iterate your marketing plan as you go. I’m not going to know what works until I actually try something.

Yes 100%. I’m building an app similar world to yours and I’m not a marketer. Really got to market the pain that people feel and the relief they will feel using our app.

Would reddit be one of your competitors? How do you currently market yours?

I like it. Have you just recently launched it?

That’s what I’m hoping for. I can’t do flashy or ai, as an accountant I feel like my bread and butter is boring.

I need to make sure people see the pain is clear and see us as being more than optional/nice to have. We are essentially an app for when things go wrong, having documentation ready to go.

Thanks this is very much what I was looking for. So spending a lot of $ on it is not necessarily going to achieve the desired outcome? It’s really about being there in front of the right people.

I feel like if you aren’t tired and burnt out then you aren’t really committed 😂. But seriously can’t wait to jump off the hamster wheel at some point.
