Being an entrepreneur is tough. The market is always changing, the demands are always changing and the pressure of it all stays the same. Whatโs you favourite way to de-stress as a founder?
Stop thinking about your idea. Go test it. Set up a landing page. Create a short advert and direct the people you think fit the bill. Gauge a signal. Lean in or iterate.
If the content you create can inspire just one other person to make a change that positively impacts their business or experience around your problem/solution fit you are already winning on social media. Follower counts don't matter. It's all about the value.
It's always going to be more cost-effective to keep a customer than find a new one. Retention matters and should be part of your marketing strategy. Stay top of mind even if you feel you've already won.
Reminder that it's 100% ok to monetize a service aspect of your startup, especially early on. Too much focus on product alone can sometimes lead you down the wrong path.
Helping people is one of the most underrated marketing tactics. Dig deep into the solution your business provides and give your customers all the essential information they need. Giving value makes people feel valued.
Contextual marketing is so important. Being able to force your content in front of the right users right now is a key part of being able to target effectively. That's not going to be around forever. Are you able to bring your content to your audience without a targeting feature?
For every 1 startup brag you see on Twitter, there are probably 100 other founders heads down doing the work. Don't sweat what everyone else is doing, just do the work.
You can't do it all on your own as a founder. Try to find repeatable tasks that you can outsource. Hire a VA if you can. Reprioritize your task list based on value created everyday. Small steps pay off.
