Hi there, my name is Kate, I'm a Product Owner (a.k.a mommy) of the fresh-launched asset management tool AssetSpace For almost a year, I'm wearing a visioner's, manager's, owner's, designer's, QA's, marketologist's and a lot of other hats while working on product. Ask me anything!
I know that some of you might be hesitant to start working on your idea, because you have no technical knowledge. I was the same a few months ago, so I'd be happy to answer any questions about this. Open to questions and feedback about what I launched as well! Main vision of TheWorkSage is to connect everyone looking to change/grow their career, with the people who are offering help to achieve this. You can check out the launch here - https://www.producthunt.com/post...

Hey hunters,
I'm making a list of books or podcasts which are really helpful for entrepreneurs.
What will be different about this list from every other list?
It will be directly made up by founders like you. Do share!!
Pitch decks are hard, they can make or break your attempt to get funding. I've seen a ton of advice go around on how to optimize a pitch deck, do you have any tips?
We wanted to build an AI-powered productivity assistant. Prior to development, we launched a simple email newsletter and landing page to collect leads. We promised daily emails with habit suggestions, which we coded in 5 days. (Check out Insumo 1.0 launch at my Profile) We obtained ~1000 organic leads with launching on Product Hunt, BetaList, and Reddit to generate interest. With the traction gained, we secured a pre-seed funding round from investors. With the funding we launched our iOS app, as our target audience and 80% of paying users are on iOS. We did Performance marketing on Facebook, Snapchat etc and brought in 25K+ more users. With paid traffic also resulting in organic traffic which bumped us to 35K users. We later started playing the SEO game, wrote content in various platforms and mostly on our website www.insumo.io. Kept creating content on social media, created podcasts called "Habit Talks" and kept talking with our active users which helped us to gain 10K users. Our focus was to acquire mostly free users, learn from their behavior and needs, and launch our AI-powered web app. Now We're preparing for the public beta launch of our web app.
I'm Sona, currently serving as a Chief Design Officer (CDO) at Sivi.ai, while also wearing the hat of an author of Ecommerce UX design playbook. Before venturing into the world of Development, leadership, and authorship, my journey began as a designer. Having worked on multiple Fortune 500 and small to medium e-commerce websites, I decided to gather all my learnings in one playbook. When I'm not immersed in Building Sivi.ai, design, or writing, you'll find me either on a squash court or sketching outdoors. Now, I'm excited to engage with all of you in a discussion about everything from bootstrapping, funding, Design, UX and UI, productivity, community building, and even my experience as an author. I'll be here for the next 48 hours to answer any questions you might have. So, let's get the conversation started!
I have a confession. I'm a Petroleum Engineering major who's in love with marketing. Sometimes, I think I'm too in over my head. I started doing "marketing" with social media management as my first foray into anything remotely associated with digital marketing (show of hands if you started the popular way). And then, I think I lost a bit of love for social media marketing, and moved on quickly to something shiny email marketing. This was heaven while it lasted. I sold personal financial management courses and eBooks for a popular consultant here in my country. The conversations in the inboxes were so direct and personal that it always felt like I was looking directly at, and talking to the person's soul. I also tried my hands on SEO and content strategy. Doesn't it just feel amazing how you pick up so many useful micro-skills for digital marketing? That's always so intriguing. Now, I do product marketing, thanks to charting newer territories. I find it intriguing how numerous teams work together to solve a problem. Be that small-scale, or global. And meeting a lot of amazing makers and marketers here launching really helpful products here daily (some of which have been time-savers for me) reinforced my reason why I want to identify with this industry. I read a book recently by Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares called, "Traction." Recommended by a senior colleague in marketing. The ideas in the book just made so much sense and held so many insights for me. And it made me understand one thing, "whatever you want to get better at, reading books help you navigate there faster." As a marketer, what book(s) gave you your best "aha!" moment?
When we started Sivi, we interviewed various user personas to assess their interest in using AI design tools. When we presented the prototypes, we discovered that business owners and marketers showed remarkable enthusiasm about the product. This validation served as a strong motivation, inspiring us to move forward with the development of Sivi AI. I'd love to hear your experiences and insights.
