Forget the pitch deck for a second. This is about grabbing attention fast. Share your startup in five words or less. The goal is to be clear, clever, or just bold enough to make people stop scrolling. Who knows, it could be a good marketing exercise

My two co-founders and I have been building WebGremlin, our first SaaS, for 1-2 months now. It s a website analysis tool. After we did the customer dev, we targeted three groups: business owners, marketers, and marketing agencies. We validated business owners with an MVP and made a few sales, so we started working on version 1.
We are having a soft launch now and it showed lower than expected conversion from business owners. However a few marketing agencies reached out, asking for an agency plan and are ready to pay, even without the features they want, basically saying "shut up and take my money".
Now we re stuck. Agencies seem like the hotter market, but pivoting means redoing our homepage, marketing, and adding features, more dev work when I d rather focus on marketing. Also we haven't done our official launch so it's still early to say if we should pivot or not. Do we stick with business owners or pivot to agencies? What s the smart move here?
When you re trying to cover multiple platforms with your brand and also cover other platforms for your business account, things can get a little out of hand.
How do you manage your communities and everything that comes with it?
We gearing up for the launch of WebGremlin.ai and of course, planning to submit to PH. But I m curious, where else do you share your products to get traction? What are other platforms, forums, or communities that have worked well for you (like hackernews)? And while we re at it, what s your go-to initial launch strategy to make some noise?
