Do you use a coach, mentor, or just go it alone?

I'm building ClaritySMB because I experienced the power of business coaching firsthand. Having a coach completely changed how I approached my business, but at $1,000+ per month, it's just not realistic for most solo entrepreneurs.

Most business tools are built for teams. Most coaches cost $1,000+ per month. And most advice is generic fluff that doesn't actually help you decide what to work on this week.

Here's what I'm building instead:

A business coaching platform that gives solo founders the clarity and structure they need to actually execute, not just brainstorm.

Pre-launch: What marketing strategies should I plan for my B2B SaaS after PH?

Hey PH community!

Building a lower-ticket B2B SaaS (about $30-40/month range) and planning my Product Hunt launch strategy. Want to make sure I have a solid post-launch marketing plan ready to capitalize on any momentum.

Q2 2025 Check-in: How did you do fulfilling your quarterly goals?

For those who don't know:

Instead of New Year's resolutions, I set goals at the beginning of each quarter to accomplish in the next 90 days and evaluate them at the end.

How we hit top #1 on Product Hunt— and what I’d change next time to achieve way better results

Hi PH community,

My team and I just launched Byterover a self-improving memory layer for coding agents on AI IDEs like Cursor, Windsurf, and more.

We ve been sitting at #1 for the past 18 hours since launch. Super grateful but I also think we could ve done a lot better with better prep.

Solo founders: how do you stay focused?

I'm currently a team of 1, and some days it can be hard (and lonely) to just keep grinding. Curious to hear from other solo builders here how you stay motivated and consistent over the long run?

Things helping me a lot right now:

  • Private community to share progress

  • Lots of small releases

  • Reaching out to current users to get more feedback and direct work

  • Reminding myself that it sometimes just takes time

🚀 Did you test demand before building? If yes, what worked best for you?

We ran early access promotions before building to validate real interest and willingness to pay it worked well for us. Would love to hear how others approached this pre-sales, landing pages, communities?

How do you handle pricing strategies and discounts?

When I was studying economics, we always said that we base the price on these basic things:

cost level

competition

prominence of the industry/product

How do you guys manage saved social media content for research?

For I've been dealing with this problem - How do you guys manage to handle all the posts, links, content and research on the trends? Don't you all feel a bit too cluttered managing it all on bookmarks, notion or even inside the saved features of the apps themselves?

A mistake that cost me $20K and 3 years, but taught me an important lesson.

I've made many mistakes in my 20-year entrepreneurial journey. During COVID times, I built several amazing (yep, truly amazing) products.

Is it really good to succeed at a young age?

I often met people with the mindset:

"I'll work hard until I'm 30, and then I'll enjoy the fruits of my labour."

Many people wanted to get into the Forbes 30 Under 30.

I built the MVP. Now I have no idea how to market it….

For those of you who ve been following along first off, thank you. I ve been building Probado, a platform that helps early-stage founders get structured, paid feedback on their MVPs from vetted testers. It s affordable, customizable, and enhanced with AI that helps summarize insights and recommend improvements.

We ve got now 100+ vetted testers onboarded, and the MVP is just about done.

But now I m facing the part that honestly feels the hardest so far: marketing.

Your "MVP" isn't minimal - it's just broken

Launched our "MVP" with 15 features because "users might need them."
Result? Nobody used ANY of them properly.

Turns out, MVP doesn't mean "slightly worse version of your dream product."

It means: What's the SMALLEST thing that proves people will pay for this?

Most "MVPs" I see:
