Got 35k views & 30+ first sales... But is fun allowed during screen shares?

Hey PH!

I recently posted a short video of Pokey - a tiny Mac app that turns your cursor into an animated hand that taps your screen when you click.

Has everyone gone through that rough phase while building something?

For a while now, whenever I ve been building different apps, I ve often found myself feeling frustrated and a little scared somewhere in the middle of the process. There s also another difficult phase that comes after building, especially when the product doesn t get the results you were hoping for. You start feeling disappointed, and thoughts like This is never going to work or No one is going to use this start creeping in. Have you ever felt the same way? What helped you get through it, and how do you deal with these thoughts when they come up? :)

How do you know if your launch is "good" or you are way off? And where do you advertise?

How do you know if your app launch is going well or if it is bad? I mean, obviously, if you have zero downloads, I would assume bad, but also, is it? I know there are a bajillion apps in the app store so how are people going to find yours?

I launched my app 7 days ago, and in true founder fashion, I am super impatient, looking every single day at how many downloads, how many paid downloads, etc. So far in 7 days, I have 10 downloads. So here I am thinking, is it a flop?

Where are you all advertising? Thank you for any advice in advance. Jennifer
