Introducing Uneed - Product Hunt, without the stress

I have a dream 😎.

I have a dream of a fairer, more transparent Product Hunt 🥹

That dream is coming true today!

Uneed is a new launch platform for your products. Here's how it differs from Product Hunt👇🏻

@matt__yao @PoudyalBinam65 Feel like a good example is this platform for marketing apprencticeship https://t.co/rwrD29ImEg, instead of intern managers, you get "mentors" - more adequate for senior employees.

[Mathilde @mathildeferroli]

@T_Zahil Yay, rooting for you Thomas. Love to see your progress, and excited to see a new much needed version of PH, let's goooo

@jean__gatt Ahah funny, one of my good friend!
Got a chair and a few other stuff 😅

What I learned about validation this week:

At Xmas I was 1 month into building my backlink guide
I was sending it out for free to around 10 people.
I was eagerly waiting for feedback.
I got none.

Then, on Twitter I found someone to beta test it.
I thought the reaction will be so positive
It will be a quote for the testimonial page.
Instead the feedback was:
Meh, not sure anyone would pay for it
Maybe you could offer it for free?

So there I was - I honestly thought this idea was already invalidated.

I took the last hope I had in this
Finished the landing page
Created a 4 minute pitch video
And launched

And lo and behold - people bought it.
With my doubt I started with $29.
People who bought it said it was too cheap.
Raised it to $49 - people still said it's too cheap.
Now it's $67 and the conversion rate didn't suffer.

What does this all mean?
My best guess is: I had a product but I lacked the messaging.
Launching forced me to spell out the story behind my product, to find the right words to describe the product.

In other words: Without launching you can never know if your idea works or not.

Want to validate your product idea FAST?

Not waste days building your landing page or trying to get traffic.

I found two great apps/tools to help you do both: create fast and get your first leads quickly!

😂🦆 that’s too good

@EspreeDevora For communities I’d say https://t.co/aCAGCAzghP or @NiceboardHQ

[Mathilde @mathildeferroli]

@T_Zahil You’re already on the right track!! 🚀

[Mathilde @mathildeferroli]

@jean__gatt @Yuliia_bilyk1 You know what, we need one! I’ve tried several and didn’t find any that truly were about building stuff except maybe @scrollinondubs awesome nocode meetups 😊

[Mathilde @mathildeferroli]

☺️🙌

[Jean Gatt @jean__gatt]

The first two people this year I met were @Yuliia_bilyk1 and @mathildeferroli, both are super impressive in their own way. So if you’re Lisbon, you have to meet them 🙌
