The bigger challenge - Marketing or Dev?

I think the biggest challenge is juggling between both! What about you, Cem?

Probably depends on your background, but for me its marketing. Building software is one thing, selling it definitely something else..

I think it's a symbiosis. Without dev you can't do marketing and without marketing development will be just a hobby, because you don't make revenue.

Marketing is the bigger challenge for us. We took the time to prioritize the development and stability of our platform before launching marketing efforts. After 1.5 years of successful operation, we're now focusing on marketing as the next challenge. We recognize the need to build brand awareness on platforms like Twitter, where we unfort. currently have limited exposure.

Short term I'd say Dev... there's a big shortage of senior developers. But with the rise of AI in the long run I think the technology part will become a commodity and every niche will become more competitive. What will set products apart will be UI, Marketing and Branding

I think the challenge depends on the product offerings, competition, and target audience. Often, if the product is self serving and provides a genuine value, Dev is more important. What has your experience been?

We are a strong dev background company. For us Marketing is the biggest challenge for us

I think, it really depends on various factors. We have a lot of things to consider saying that one of them is a bigger challenge. Marketing and development present unique challenges, and the importance of each may vary depending on the specific goals and priorities of a company or project, but what I can assure is that when this two works together, the only bigger challenge is to achieve overall business objectives.

For me it is marketing. The building is in control. How to Market isn't.

Definitely both for me, especially if you're a solo founder. If you have a cofounder, it's better cause one of you can prioritize development while the other marketing

The biggest challenge is when you have to do both by yourself.

Both are world biggest challenge

I think the bigger challenge is what you are not good at.

Both are scarry.! Depends on what you have experience with.

I think the challenge is to manage to do both at the same time

Development without marketing is a hobby. Development with marketing is a business. And if you master both, you gain profits. If you fail at least one, it could be a failure. So the bigger challenge is tackling marketing and development equally.

I believe the challenge varies depending on factors such as product offerings, competition, and target audience. Often, if the product is self-serving and offers genuine value, development becomes more crucial.

Luckily there are so many tools for both :) And people with different strengths

For me it's marketing, but that's likely to do with where my skillset is more-so then being inherently harder than the other.
