Sold 340 LTDs at launch. Nearly killed the product 18 months later.

The first week felt like validation. 340 customers, $50K in the bank, near the top of the charts. I thought I'd solved the cold start problem.

What I hadn't worked through: I'd acquired 340 customers who paid once and had no incentive to churn. Which meant I had no recurring signal on what actually needed fixing. The feedback was noisy because everyone bought at different price points with different expectations. Support was immediate and permanent. When I raised prices six months later to attract monthly subscribers, existing LTD holders treated it as a personal betrayal.

The biggest lie in product building: "ship fast, learn later"

Everyone tells you to ship fast. Move fast and break things. Get to market before someone else does.

I believed this for a long time. When we were building Murror, speed was everything. We pushed features weekly, sometimes daily. We celebrated every deploy like a small victory.

What's the worst advice you've ever gotten about marketing your product?

I'll go first.

Someone told me: "Just be consistent. Post every day. The algorithm rewards consistency."

So I did.

For six months, I posted every single day. Sometimes at 7am. Sometimes at 10pm. Weekends included. I wrote about our product, our features, our roadmap. I followed all the "best practices" hook in the first line, three takeaways, call to action at the end.

SMB and CRM's

Most CRMs weren't built for small businesses. They were built for enterprises and then "simplified" into cheaper tiers with half the features stripped out.
And that's the core problem.

When a 5-person sales team signs up for a CRM, they don't need:

  • 6-month implementation timelines

  • Mandatory training certifications

  • 200-page admin guides

  • A dedicated "CRM manager" role just to keep things running

They need to know: Who talked to which customer? What was said? What's the next step?

How much do you trust AI agents?

With the advent of clawdbots, it's as if we've all lost our inhibitions and "put our lives completely in their hands."

I'm all for delegating work, but not giving them too much personal/sensitive stuff to handle.

πŸ”₯ Drop your tagline and I'll try to guess what your product is

A tagline is the first piece of content a user will see about your product on the leaderboard. It's so important that you get it right. You should be able to get a really solid idea of what your product is just by reading a handful of words.

In the spirit of forever optimising our taglines, I wanted to do a little experiment:

What’s Your Vibe Coding Stack in 2025?

AI dev tools are evolving crazy fast , every few weeks there s a new must-try for vibe coders.

Some people are building full products with @ChatGPT by OpenAI and @Replit , others swear by @Cursor and @Claude by Anthropic , and a few are mixing @Lovable + @v0 by Vercel + @bolt.new to ship apps in record time.

I ve been refining my own vibe stack lately, trying to find that sweet spot between speed, control, and creativity.
It made me wonder ,what does your setup look like right now?
