You've heard it before. As a dev how can I get better at marketing? For me marketing is just posting my buildinpublic on X. But I constantly feel like im posting into a void. How should I "up" my game?  Things I've thought of but haven't tried yet: - A twitter feed trying and reviewing open sou...

I'm hesitant to go straight to AI with this, so reaching out to my network... I'd like to make some brand (including logo) updates to #railsmarket and I could use some recommendations on how you'd proceed with this. Going to end up doing a site redesign after this, but want to start with brandi...

I’m copywriting from Monday to Friday, and that’s cool, I’m loving it. But on the weekend, I want to get some intentional distance from it and use my leisure time to test things out. My ask I’m inviting you to deconstruct the DNA of a pop song so we can create our own. I’m looking for creative c...

In the last 48 hours, about 130 people signed up on https://AiVideo.To. But none of them subscribed. 🤕 I wondered why. I thought price was the issue so I doubled the usage quota on all plans and sent a free video gift email to all singups. Just an hour ago I realized there was a bug that failed...

Hi everyone, I'm new in this indie hacker's world. I'm building one product. But without any users its pretty useless. So, i can't understand how to get organic users. I don't want to pay any paid services. Like fb ads. Because, if we stop paying we can't get enough traffic. I tried reddit, bu t...

One learns and practices coding by building stuff they are interested in. Similarly, how can one learn marketing and sales? If the answer is "by selling something", then what do I sell?

Hi all, I have the domain prototypr.io, and also a new project called UI Sounds, that currently sits in uisounds.prototypr.io. However, I also own uisounds.io - do you think it would be a good move to use uisounds.io instead of the subdomain? The reason I went with subdomain is because it's pa...

Is it any good? Is it a good idea when you have just launched?

Inspired by the man himself Pat Walls with his StarterStory, I started my own blog interviewing side hustlers and successful content creators (I was a content creator myself, so it made sense to do something like this + to network with them later down the track). Since I started nearly 3 months ...

Hi all, I'm a semi self-publishing author of books on different topics. I wrote about fitness (in a satirical way), about travel hacking (on how to find cheap airfare) and about (how not to kill your) houseplants.  My current project is more of a philosophical work, exploring the concept of aut...

It feels like a tough needle to thread. I've made mistakes both launching too early with something that makes people go "eh, cool I guess", and building feature after feature and never pushing it out the door. Curious to see how you all think through this and what your collective experiences ha...

I am a complete noob when it comes to email drip campaigns, so I'm wondering if anyone here has experience with this. If so, what tools are you using? What kind of automations / triggers have you set up and how are they working out for you? Right now, I occasionally send out a manual email marke...

After the initial wave of users after launch dies down, what are some good ways to keep attracting new users?

(this is question is in addition to the audio message that I just shared with you in the Telegram WIP chat group) I’m currently offering audio-only story-based ads for small companies and solopreneurs that I personally like while building my dream storytelling company, #suse (susé patrola). It’...

I'm thinking of creating a job board for a specific niche, and regardless if it has both paid and unpaid listings I was wondering how I could populate it when it's just starting out. Should I scrape relevant jobs, post them on my own, and then alert the businesses they're on my site? Or would a ...

Or: where can I learn online sales for SaaS?
