1. Don't get discouraged. As a founder myself, I can tell you this: "this is just the Beginning of the beginning of the beginning"
2. If you truly believe your idea is worth it, and have some cash set aside, I highly recommend you hire someone to build a decent website. I actually went with https://draftss.com/ https://draftss.com/ - if you truly know what you want, you should have a logo + website ready within one month or so. I know it sounds like a lot of time, but in the long run, it'll feel like nothing.
3. Either do marketing yourself, or hire someone - to truly see if there's interest, you should spend at least $500-1000 / month, and see what that gets you (feedback, subscriptions, etc). Then decide how to continue.
4. A bit more detail on marketing - be sure you do it correctly, if you decide to do it yourself. It took me a looong time to realize I was wasting money big time, until I hired a marketing person.
Good luck!
- surfertas 7y agoThanks a lot! Yes, its sometimes easy to get discouraged, especially when you realize there is a gap between personal expectations and reality. I wasn't aware of the service draftss but it seems like I can outsource the branding, which I really need help with. With regards to marketing, it really may be best to out source once I get the landing page in order per @photon_off comments. Trying to do everything by oneself might not be the best course of action... Thanks a lot for the input.
- photawe 7y agoGlad to help! Yeah, about that service - as I said, once you know exactly what you want, they're awesome. For sure, doing everything yourself is not the way to go -- there's simply too much to do :)
