With today s tools, translation (UI, copy, even video) is no longer the hard part.
What slows us down instead are things like tax, legal compliance, hiring, support, payments sometimes even geopolitics. The moment users show up from a new country, a product problem turns into an operating one.
The day before yesterday, I was looking at the profiles of founders and team members of Lovable, as well as other companies, e.g. Hubspot, and they all look pretty good.
Lately, I ve been getting offers to help grow LinkedIn profiles from several founders, and I m starting to feel like at least LinkedIn is hype.
If your launch does not go as planned, do not judge it too quickly. Avoid the instinct to immediately add more features or pivot the product.
Instead, pause and evaluate what already exists. Check whether the core features are clearly communicated, fully polished, and genuinely solve the intended problem. Often, the issue is not the idea, but the execution, positioning, or user experience.
Refine what you have. Improve clarity, usability, onboarding, and messaging. Then relaunch with focus and confidence.
Many products fail not because they were wrong, but because they were unfinished, unclear, or rushed.
