Failure after failure – my new startup

nookeshkarri7 2y ago
Over the past two years, I have developed several micro SaaS platforms, but unfortunately, none have launched successfully, resulting in no revenue. Currently, I am working on a new platform, NdbForms, which serves as an alternative to NoteForms and TypeForms. I would greatly appreciate your feedback and suggestions to help ensure a successful launch for this product. You can take a look at the platform here: https://ndbforms.appmize.com/ https://ndbforms.appmize.com/

  I have tried demo on mobile, and page returns “Application error: a client-side exception has occurred (see the browser console for more information).” on latest iOS.

Congrats and I am sure a lot of work went into this. That said, here's some stranger-on-the-internet feedback: I don't know what your product does and the landing page lacks fit and finish. Is this a form builder that saves responses to notion? Or it's just inspired by notion? (If I say I am uber for kitchens, my service has nothing to do with cars.) Your video needs to be storyboarded and could use some title cards. It probably needs to be split up into multiple videos. You can cheaply hire an editor to help with this. Landing pages are a lot of work, almost as much as the product itself. This is hard to accept if you're an engineer. "Create beautiful forms and surveys with NdbForms" – this hero copy needs to be really, really tight. Currently it sounds like just another form builder. I assume you do something different. Don't repeat the name of your product since I'm already on your landing page. A human copywriter will knock your socks off and they're even cheaper now that everyone uses AI for this stuff. Consider some user testing. Get on zoom with a potential customer and send them to your landing page. Just listen as they try to figure it out. You'll learn a lot. Does notion have an app store? the big advantage of building an integration with an existing platform is they help to get you distribution. when i google "form builder for notion" i get a lot of results. it's a crowded space. if you can't easily break into the top 3 for your niche you're facing an uphill battle. If you're a solo dev, it's not possible to compete by building a better product. It's much better to "win by default" by being early to a less-competitive niche. the best feedback hurts the most! i hope this hurts!
