There's probably tons of advice I wish I had but if I could go back I would tell me that failure is necessarily a fail, we can learn from it and take those learnings to our next journey

This question stems from an inherent observation surrounding the launch and distribution of successful products on Product hunt. In most cases, even great products die down after the launch on PH as they suffer from the distribution problem. However, the ones that become successful are the ones that leverage their own audience for the successful distribution of their own products. How do fellow indiehackers and makers approach these two sides of a coin (a) Building an audience, and (b) Building a product? If you were to start from zero again, what would you build first? Audience or the Product? How would you approach both these phases while taking your product from launch (0 to 1) and successful distribution (1 to n)? How deeply are audience-building and product-building interlinked?

Hey, Product Hunt fam We're extremely happy to launch an absolutely free Side Projects Playbook Though thousands of people around the world want to have a side-project many are not able to start. For those who do start, a lot of them are not able to finish. Today we are taking a shot at solving this for once & all. After enabling 500+ builders we are open-sourcing the playbook which when applied diligently will ensure you are able to build & launch your side project The resources, frameworks & milestones are packed in an action-oriented fashion for you to make progress and get to the goal for the entire spectrum of ideation to launching a side project. Side projects have been life-changing for me personally and in the last 18+ months, we have seen the upsides of building side projects for hundreds of builders at Build. It is time to build! https://www.producthunt.com/post...
