What's the worst advice you've ever gotten about marketing your product?

I'll go first.

Someone told me: "Just be consistent. Post every day. The algorithm rewards consistency."

So I did.

For six months, I posted every single day. Sometimes at 7am. Sometimes at 10pm. Weekends included. I wrote about our product, our features, our roadmap. I followed all the "best practices" hook in the first line, three takeaways, call to action at the end.

Are the chatbots pleasers?

In one of the newsletters I follow there is this quote. What do you think about it?

 Chatbots comply with the user s wish to solve the problem on their own, even when this is impossible and may make matters worse. Chatbots, in fact, are not built to help, but to please. If you feel flattered when your LLM tells you how smart your question was (I certainly do), you are not alone: a pre-print from 2025 found that all major LLMs were highly sycophantic.
