Golden rule - always show the product to users before launch 👀 And don't ignore their feedback

@basv Yes 100%, I basically share sneak peek of the product before launch to create a hype 🚀

Can you share your favorite chats in slack or discord for the launch publishing?
Dan Kulkov

What advice you have for a product which is already launched? Is it a good idea to keep it free for a while? Or will it set-up an expectations that product will be free down the line and act as an hinderance if a charge has to be applied?
Dan Kulkov
@zoon_s I think this problem could be solved with accurate messaging. There is no problem with Free plans, only how people view them. So just double-down on user research 🔥
