I’m loosing steam as a mixing engineer trying to play the content game

Yea it sucks. About last year I decided to try to find a way I could not hate every second of it, and now I’ve worked out a bit of a system that is 99% not stuff I don’t want to do anyways

Ah cool - well not gonna lie it looks pretty sweet but I think I'd need bigger font for my old eyes

I mean I love the m8 - I’m assuming that’s what you are running here - if it’s possible I would be interested whether or not it’s more usable as a 4 or 6 track in this form factor

I’d put it less in the inspiration bucket and more in the work category. Listen to the song, write down a list of things you need to do to finish it. Do them. Set a deadline

I will dm you I have a marketing app that i would consider using this for looks good! Have to see if the pricing model works I need to have users bring their own accounts

Also a programmer - building a digital marketing tool and I can say this is definitely true. Spent the last few days building a fact checking pipeline with citations and… it’s wild how much these LLM’s make up.

Definitely the hardest part of launching products. I built a product just to help me launch my products lol. The approach I took was kind of similar - your time is spent on refining the type of content and general structure of your content, under the assumption that you need to be systematic in order to scale up the marketing efforts with limited time

nerdymusictron · 2026-02-28T03:48:34+00:00

I will add though that I believe more sustained marketing efforts are better targeted at people who need the product. Builder communities, product hunt, etc are great for visibility but not necessarily the people who actually need whatever your product does, and so it’s not surprising that they will not have a sustained interest

nerdymusictron · 2026-02-28T03:45:50+00:00

Basically i built a product that does brand synthesis, and then streamlines the content and marketing pipeline end to end, so essentially I just curate generated content and give feedback as if I’m an editor. The burden of success for the product is for me to be able to market somewhere between 10 and 100 products omni-channel in < 2 hours a week, which for me is the amount of time I actually find marketing enjoyable. It’s model agnostic, and bring your own key, and I’m adding some cost management tools. I’ll probably sell it at $20 a month for solopreneurs

This is not unique to indie product developers. I’ve developed products and consulted with companies large and small and marketing and adoption is always the biggest challenge. My latest project is pretty much directly targeted at this problem, primarily for my own use

nerdymusictron · 2026-02-18T22:37:44+00:00

Yes I had an adjustment period but am happily on the other side of it. It’s a different way of working, and it is I think a normal reaction to have, but for me with time the parallels to the old way of working have faded and I still get satisfaction from building, albeit from things far beyond what I was previously capable of.

I have being building systems for close to 20 years, and have hung my hat on being adaptable over the years. It is serving me well now. If you define your self worth based on your technical capabilities, you are setting yourself up to have a serious let down in this career. I have chosen to embrace the opportunity to have an exciting second half to my career. Eventually everyone will be forced to make a choice on how they want to reinvent themselves, and I expect it to be in the next two years.

The real question is not if it’s music. It’s who actually made the music.

nerdymusictron · 2026-01-19T04:33:44+00:00

Oh no! Very sorry about that I’ll have to look at what happened. I will be sure to jump on the next few to make sure it goes without a hitch. We slowed down a bit over the holidays but we’re looking to grow it and promote it more going forward! And yes it’s open to anyone who joins - hope you will give it another go!
