I get the impression that the 'audience' driven growth probably happens at 10,000+ followers. Growing to get there as a solo seems to be about building in public.But until then, the way I've gotten users from social has been basically networking ON the platforms. My following on twitter, for e.g. is just 600 people but a lot of them have become friends and allies because I chat with them,...

Voting for @Landingi . Use this at work a lot and it's as powerful as Unbounce and Instapage, but more cost effective and easier to use.

I know of people who hate filling out marketing plans for loan approvals etc. This would be a god send. Nice work.

Nice work chaps! Happy to see this finally launched.

What things are you into? Hopefully you can find some common interests here.

A technique I used once, and intend to use again, is to invite target user friends in my network to help me out as a beta testers. If they like it - I'll ask for testimonials etc for the hard launch. If they don't, I can use the feedback for the product.Once it goes paid, they get access for a massive discount as a thank you for being early beta testers.

Love this direction. But what is the purpose of product-specific forums?

I think so. 1/ People want to connect with a person more than a 'company' so you'll get more organic reach and engagement on any social posting 2/ Personal brands can be used properly to 'build in public' and get feedback or support as you go along. An interview I did (https://indiemarketingplays.com/...) on this really opened my eyes. It's more than just posting updates, it's about...

Maybe could use a highlights summary below the headmast section. Then some social proof, if you have any so far? I was wondering about writing better landing pages alot so I interviewed someone who had done a tonne of landing page teardowns for her best advice: https://indiemarketingplays.com/...

Asking my existing connections. I've been trying to network more with folks with this skillset on Twitter. How about you?

Nice one Alex! I can see this saving a bunch of time for what is a box-tick for many people. But even if not, it would give a great baseline to potentially edit.

A real time saver. Nice product. I think it could be great for SEO teams, especially.

Yeah, I used to hate Twitter because of the politics, etc. But now I love it. Originally I tried to do the normal thing which was to 'build an audience'. But I found it a tiny bit unauthentic. Later, I came across a creator there who encouraged me to focus on making friends and networking on the platform. It's better to have 500 people who know and like you versus 50,000 people who follow...

Nice work @joris_falter !

My fear would be stuffing it up. Don't want to burn my friends and contacts on a flop because it would feel bad to ask them for a 2nd time later.

Networking. Nice idea. Followed/connected: https://twitter.com/benjaminboman_ https://www.linkedin.com/in/benj...

Indeed, nobody wants to be a number. It it's not that nice when people don't actually want to engage back or support in return. Such a missed opportunity to network!
