    @sitenley Have you used tools like Semrush and Similarweb to identify what your target audience is searching for and which sm channels they hang out on? You can also leverage competitors and create detailed benchmark reports.

    Biggest challenge I'm facing is dealing with debt from post covid. Made some really dumb decisions and business slowed. It sucks hardcore but I'll figure it out.

    Hey Bahar! It's great to connect with fellow founders and creators. The challenges you've mentioned are definitely common in the entrepreneurial journey. To tackle the capital issue, have you considered alternative funding sources like angel investors or crowdfunding? As for regulations and legal requirements, seeking guidance from industry experts or legal advisors could be beneficial. Retaining customers in a competitive market often involves doubling down on exceptional customer service and unique value propositions. Navigating economic fluctuations can be tricky, but diversifying revenue streams and staying agile can help mitigate the impact. Keep pushing forward, and remember that every challenge is an opportunity for growth!

    Hi Bahar, my challenge is currently the marketing of App Finder, my advanced search engine for Android apps (soon iOS also) https://skyica.com/appfinder/. The specific issue here is that while many people are not happy with the Play Store search, they don't expect that there is an alternative, and thus don't look for it.
