I really liked this post, it's what so many entire COMPANIES fail to do in the early days. IMO, ideally every startup should sit down basically the day after founding and ask exactly this: how can we make money (i.e. prove the business point) within a MONTH?
Also have to chime in to the fact you mentioned getting banned due to self promotion on reddit, samething happened to me and really rubs me the wrong way. I also used reddit to get my first sales with my product and then was also banned from some of my favorite subreddits. Such a weird conundrum since the reddit hive mind leans so heavily into "we hate huge companies and corporate slave life!" and whenever someone goes out on a limb as an indy dev or solopreneur to make something themselves they likewise are berated. I just don't get it.
Anyways, great post, couldn't help but mix in my sourness at reddit.
