What did your absolute first week of product distribution teach you?

My biggest mistake starting out was treating community feedback as actual market demand. I also wasted time embedding demo media inside text formats that completely ruined feed engagement and tried to sound bigger than I was until someone caught it.

Realizing that builder spaces are amazing for product advice but terrible for customer acquisition completely changed my distribution strategy. What was the most unexpected lesson you learned during your first week of trying to get eyeballs on your project?
