How do you find a name for your projects?

Naming is always a pain (even while coding). How do you proceed when you have a new product but can't find the right name? I've used Namelix but that doesn't really help For my previous startup we spent literally several weeks on this. What're your tips to get a good name?

Where do you go for alpha users?

Is there anywhere in particular you like to post your application that is good for finding early stage users? (Maybe like ProductHunt but pre-release)

I'm Rosie, I've built a 7 fig business, led community at IH, now building a community @Orbit. AMA 🔥

Hey everyone! I'm Rosie Sherry and I love building communities. I started about 15 years ago with meetups, I then started Ministry of Testing and boostrapped that to $1.5M annual revenue over 10 years. I still (co)own, but don't run the business day to day. I led the community over at Indie Hackers for a couple of years. More recently I started Rosieland, a community for community builders. This has evolved over the past couple of years, from a newsletter, to a paid newsletter and now to a community with a 'community garden' approach. Rosieland is still my side-gig as I recently joined Orbit

What advice would you give to your youngest self?

What's the weirdest domain name you bought?

Sometimes you get a shower thought and the next thing you do is ending up owning a domain for it. Drop the one you own that is weirdly funny :)

How do you improve your productivity?

I'm working in the tech for 12+years, mostly remote and being productive has always been an issue. From my experience what works the most is: - Define precisely my tasks, and keep it as small as possible (1h max) - Work with 100% on this tasks - Take regular breaks - and stop working after 4/5hrs of deep focus - Sleep and eat well I keep all tasks in a bullet journal, it's not perfect but I haven't found a better way to do it. (I'm building in public one product to solve this right now. Not sure how efficient it will be ) What about you? What worked for you? How about

What's one piece of advice you'd like to give your pre-founder self…?

[Caveat: I know this gets asked every now and then. It's been a minute since I've seen a recent post asking this.] Think about everything you've learned since you started your first project. It's staggering, isn't it? And honestly, most of what you know today requires the context of years of experience to even make sense. Still, there are those snippets of insight. Truisms that are readily understandable and intelligible by even the most naive novice. Like you were. When you started. With that in mind, you now have the opportunity to share some of your current knowledge with that earlier version of you. By writing a note to yourself. What is one thing you wish you had known before you began this journey of building products, setting up side hustles, or starting startups ? I'm looking forward to learning from you. Thanks in advance.
