If you have patience and persistence, this is the secret:
“Put up as many metal rods as possible” x Time
I made a list of 30 things we need to do to reach 1 million users. I didn’t think we’d ever reach a million users since we were only getting like 100 signups/day.
Today, we have 3.5 million users and getting 3000 signups per day. It took us 12 years to get here but when I look at that list I see that I have tried everything on it but pretty much none of them really worked. I have tried hundreds of other things and found a few things that worked.
So, lightening is a good metaphor.
- jenthoven 9y agoDamn, 3.5 million users?? Congratulations. That's a lot of lightning rods.
- nikanj 9y agoThat's a product-market-fit. Promotion will get you sign ups, but if there's no demand for your product, no amount of lighting rods is going to save you.
