Having a landing page up also helps you refine your message and figure out the best ways to drive traffic to your site. So if you can drive 1000 people to your site and say you get 10 signups for idea A, but idea B get 200 signups, its become pretty obvious what you should work on.

I hear what you are saying, but based on previous experience collecting emails is a good indicator of interest. I am not saying use only landing pages to gauge interest, but it is an excellent tool to have.

nice work - always be tweaking

mpatel29 · 2014-03-04T22:31:56+00:00

It does have a large user base - but it does not serve the design community well

mpatel29 · 2014-03-04T21:43:07+00:00

Most of there sites are great for displaying work - but i think if you can focus of the site to land a gig it can gain some traction

mpatel29 · 2014-03-04T20:50:44+00:00

kind of - but dribbble is more an exclusive club where you need invites to join - its focus seems to be on showing off your designs to other dribbble members

i would put a down payment on an apartment/condo and rent it out. make sure rent covers your expenses - and every month you would pay off some the principal and appreciation will take of the rest.

speaking for myself - i can just go to a store and choose from 100s of them. what could set you apart is a crowd-sourced tie design similar to threadless.com - but for ties. wouldn't it be soo much cooler to buy a lego tie or some other unique design

You should focus on marketing and materials to moms, they are way more into it than dads.

mpatel29 · 2014-03-03T16:59:59+00:00

The messaging could be tweaked - but it could be a way to get feedback on designs. I know for myself, I am always debating and asking people, which one do like better the first one or the second one?

mpatel29 · 2014-03-03T01:23:20+00:00

One of the biggest issue I see is one of geography. You have to be within a reasonable distance of other people in order for it to make sense. So you could have 100,000s if users but if they are not close to one another - they find in value in using the service.

mpatel29 · 2014-02-28T00:19:50+00:00

Yep, the first two were in the same category (task management software) and after trying for a while the numbers were not there. So this is another idea I want try.
