Original Summary

I'm a solo developer starting a consumer web app. I'm still in the very early build phase, and I want to avoid the classic mistake of launching to silence. I have maybe 5 hours a week to spend on audience building, no ad budget, and I'm comfortable writing but not on camera. Here's what I'm trying to figure out: If you built an audience before launch, what was the single channel that moved the needle, and what was a time sink that didn't? Waitlist page vs. build-in-public posts vs. community participation: which would you prioritize with limited time? How do you stop a pre-launch audience from being just "other indie hackers" who'll never be customers? Roughly how big did your list or following need to be before launch for it to matter? Would love real numbers or "here's what I'd do differently" stories more than general frameworks. Thanks!   submitted by   /u/Embarrassed_Way6530 [link]   [comments]
