I ve started treating not now as three different decisions:
The evidence is too weak.
The problem matters, but the timing is wrong.
The idea conflicts with a choice already made.
They look identical in a backlog, but they deserve different revisits. The first needs research, the second a trigger date, and the third a deliberate re-open of the earlier trade-off.
How do you record deferred product decisions so future you can tell whether to investigate, schedule, or leave them closed?
I m currently trying to find the first customers for my startup, and I don t yet have the budget to hire a marketing specialist or agency.
AI has become my temporary marketing assistant. I use it to:
research potential customer segments;
review and improve outreach messages;
prepare questions for customer-discovery calls;
analyze replies and identify patterns;
turn marketing experiments into clear next steps.
However, I still research each company, personalize the message and send every outreach email myself. The difficult part is finding the right balance between saving time and sounding like another automated sales message.
I've been trying to fix my "staying informed" workflow, and honestly I'm not sure I've cracked it.
I set up AI to send me a daily digest of what's been happening which helps. But I still end up spending a lot of time wandering around different sites, checking whether there's some big news I missed. The digest gives me a baseline, but it doesn't kill the FOMO, so I keep manually poking around anyway.
My site has been growing steadily, and I ve been putting a lot of effort into writing useful content, improving page speed, getting backlinks, and making sure everything is technically sound. But my Domain Authority barely moves, and organic traffic isn t growing as much as I d hoped. I know DA isn t everything, but it still feels frustrating when you spend weeks working on SEO without seeing obvious progress. For those of you who ve successfully grown a SaaS or content website: * What made the biggest difference for your SEO?
* Did you focus more on backlinks, topical authority, or publishing lots of high-quality content?
* Are there any AI tools or workflows you genuinely use for SEO today, or is most of the work still manual? I d really appreciate hearing what actually worked for you instead of generic SEO advice. Thanks!
I ve seen so much advice about partnering with well-known Hunters for your PH launch. But does it really move the needle? Anyone have real numbers or war stories? Also, how to find and approach them?
Some product categories are naturally fun to talk about (AI video, dev tools, design tools, consumer apps). People understand the product and get excited pretty quickly.
But then there are categories that are important, useful, and valuable, but historically kind of boring. Things like analytics, internal tools, compliance, finance, HR software, etc.
The Wall Street Journal reported this week that SpaceX has shown investors an early prototype for a handset-like device designed to reshape how humans interact with artificial intelligence. It s thinner than an iPhone, runs on SpaceX s own operating system, and uses chips from Qualcomm.
It s probably not a phone because Elon said he doesn t want to build one. But what it actually is is unclear. (That's if it exists at all; Elon Musk called the report "utterly false.")
I see many countries promoting social media to raise the age for using it (e.g., Australia, the UK, etc.).
The sad thing is that some parents are already giving their toddlers a tablet to "entertain" them. This hurts the child's brain development. Not to mention when they get on social media and are exposed to various trends.
