Put your customers first. Easy to say but hard to do it everyday.

@imjohnkoo Agreed. Especially hard to execute something they request that you don't necessarily agree with.

Not unexpected, but - clearly (!) define target audience

Always be aware that there is competition.

Mistakes are the biggest teachers.
Stefano
@divya14 Definitely. A lot of us beat ourselves up after a mistake, we should be happy to learn what not to do.

Hey there! Growing up with Simplef has taught me so much, especially from my mistakes. I remember launching my first product, Notificationpro (https://notificationpro.simplef....) on Product Hunt, and unfortunately, it didn't quite take off because I didn't have an audience. That's why I'd love to recommend engaging with potential audiences and actively contributing to the community. It may take some time and effort, but in the end, it'll be totally worth it!
