How to improve conversion on Twitter profile visits to trial users?

@AnonyGJ

Thanks for the feedback @yhdesai

Yes, following twitter bot one of the option. User can create account and get to access all the services that has to offer without following. My aim is not to get the users to follow rather convincing them to try the service first. Maybe I have to remove that barrier with follow clause for the non-user account and execute demo testing to see the result.

Solo Founders: How do you do "everything" by yourself?

Hi Pat,

Welcome to WIP community. Like you, I am also a stranger to this platform and doing this first time. I feel what you are saying entirely. There is a market for a service that takes care of anything other than building MVP. Maybe you can turn all of these pains into the foundation of your product.

Writing to gain the attention of strangers is new to me. I have read a couple of books on marketing, sales, and copywriting to prepare me. And that gave me some basic knowledge and changed my approach to anything I write for my app.

I just put my first cold email draft for a roast.

Like @EbrahimKhalilHassen said, keep it simple and focus one thing at a time. Build deliberate slack into your schedule to check back with you and reflect. That way, it's not going to feel like a burden.

I am happy to collaborate on copywriting. And one more coincident, like you i am also an employee in the healthcare industry in my day job.

Thanks,

Jo

Hey Jo, Thank you for you response and the warm welcome! Yes, another aspect of me building this app was to "just start" and get into the mode of doing things. I am telling myself almost every day that it does not matter whether Mission Control will be "succesful" (whatever that means) or not. If I just keep going, something will come out of it. Whether a completely different idea, the people that I get to know along the way or the knowledge that I am gaining now about new things. I was thinking about going (back) into IT Consulting. I worked 7 years for one of the bigger IT Consulting firms and I could see myself working as a Freelancer / Consultant in a particular field which I think is totally underserved and will become bigger in the next years (Funny enough, it is close to what you suggested in your first sentence)

Let me know if you want to have a chat someday. I have never used Telegram before but you can find me if you search for Pat_BMC.

Cheers,
Pat

What do you do when you're burnt out?

@AnonyGJ

Build Some Deliberate Slack into Your Schedule.

Punctuated Strategic Pause will allow your mind to relax and internalize what you have learned, both good and bad. It's an appointment with yourself to reflect. And you are giving yourself a chance to understand the root cause of burnout and make better choices to address them at the moment.

In the next restart, include this approach. You will see the differences.

I have learned this from the LinkedIn leadership course, and shown me the results.
