1. Invest time in understanding your target audience π₯
Sorry, but to succeed, you have to talk with your potential customers.
You need to understand their context, motivation, pains, and barriers to buy. Always remember that you can't know better what they need.
2. Double down on distribution π
Don't try to write the best article on the Internet. Instead, write a good enough article that will be seen by thousands of people and will result in multiple purchases of your product. This is a big difference.
3. Always experiment πͺ
The digital world is a very fast-changing environment. New marketing opportunities and trends appear daily.
If you stick to 1 channel that works for you, then you can lose everything in one day. Twitter algorithms can change, TikTok can be banned in country X, and Instagram can create new promo rules. That's life.

5. Focus on quick wins π
