It assumes the opposite - more development, less marketing. My point is I'm not trying convince you to want it. If I do my job properly by building a great site- my current users will do the marketing for me.
This is exactly what great restaurants do. When was the last time you saw an ad for your favorite restaurant down the street? I have never seen an ad for the top three restaurants I go to. Their food is awesome, and my friends told me to check them out.
- akulbe 15y agoI couldn't disagree more. Only because of the fact that those restaurants more than likely didn't just open their doors and people came. They had to do some marketing first. You will, as well. If you think if you simply build the site, and people will come... I think you're going to be sorely disappointed. Right now, you're a tiny tiny fish in the Pacific Ocean. If you want people to come, they have to _know about you_. Chances are the site is viable enough already. If I were you, I'd focus less on the code, and more on the marketing efforts. :) When you have more customers, and product is moving (so to speak), your priorities will change, and the code will be more of a priority.
- elbrodeur 15y agoRestaurants have windows and post their menus. Walk-in traffic is not a segment you want to alienate.
- cdcarter 15y agoWell now, you've been talking up Housefed.com to all of us. And I go to the site, and I still have no idea what the hell it does. I'm just hit with an ugly login page, and no incentive to sign up at all.
