1 New Idea/Month for 12 Months

About

I’m testing one business idea every month for a year—no fluff, no overthinking, just real execution. After 15+ years working 100% online, I’ve built funnels, sold courses, launched brands, and helped others grow. In recent years, I’ve focused on CRO—helping clients go from 0.79% to 2% conversion rates and turning scrappy startups into steady sellers through product page optimization. The Startup Year is my solution. One idea at a time. Built and shared in public. Follow if you’re into digital products, solopreneur experiments, and seeing what works (and what flops). Also learning to code at the ripe age of 50 😂

Which is more important: making a great product or doing effective marketing?

Hello, Product Hunt!
I vote for "marketing is more important!"
Recently, building has become really easy with the help of AI agents and tools like Cursor(thx Ai). I think the time and money needed to create a good product have significantly decreased thanks to various SaaS programs.
However, I still don t have any references to introduce to you ( ). I feel like I ve neglected marketing, which is more important than making the product. (Please tell me this is the real reason...) Especially for indie makers like me, marketing is the hardest part (I wish someone could do it for me! ).
Making a good product and promoting it are both important, and it s a pointless debate.
Still, making vs. marketing? What do you all think?
And if there are any cost-free ways for indie marketers or beginner marketers to try out, could you let me know?
