I recently spent the day working from a friend's house, where a casual gathering turned into a mini party. As I sat on the couch, typing away on my laptop, a friend wandered over and showed interest in what I was doing. I took the opportunity to walk him through the features of my product, including our chat arena feature, which allows users to get answers from multiple models in the same window. He was particularly drawn to this feature, as he often found himself opening multiple tabs to compare answers from different LLMs. I seized the moment and offered him a 20% discount code if he subscribed on the spot. To my surprise, he agreed, and just like that, I landed my first paid customer. The feeling was incredible. This experience taught me a few valuable lessons that I'd like to share with the community:
Believe in yourself and your product: As a maker, it's easy to oscillate between confidence and self-doubt. There are times when I feel like I'm building something revolutionary, and others when I worry that no one will pay for it. But it's essential to maintain faith in your product, even when the going gets tough.
UI is crucial: Regardless of how complex or innovative your technology is, users care about one thing: how your website looks. A clean, simple, and well-designed UI can make all the difference. People do judge a book by its cover, so make sure your product's cover is worth judging.
The Power of Discounts: The Power of Discounts and Incentives Offering a discount code played a significant role in acquiring my first customer. Incentives can motivate users to try your product, and if they find value in it, they're more likely to remain subscribed. Experiment with different promotions and discounts to attract and retain customers.
