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
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.
