Original Summary

So i built a product for a problem i genuinely faced in my previous job. I think i’m just a tad bit late given that the AI tools have improved so much. Still i kinda ignored that, bcz I had built a toy version of this during a company hackathon and I won prizes and saw so many users using it internally. Bcz of that I thought, there could be a chance of building a great product around this. So I built my savings, had some runway and quit the job, learned how to build it properly..and I built a v0 which genuinely solved so much problem that i was facing. Then i packaged it into a product that other people can use. Launched in beta for free, reached out to my network and politely asked them if they could give it a try. They all said it was cool, will give it a try. But none of them did. I even followed up with couple of em and they said the same thing again. All my users now are just friends whose feedbacks don’t really matter bcz they are not the intended users. I’m so demoralised. This is my second attempt at building a business. The first one was kind of a vitamin problem. This time i thought i genuinely had cracked a painkiller problem and atleast i would get the beta users fast so that I can iterate on their feedback. Now I’m kinda depressed. Kinda unsure. I know there are still other marketing channels I could try, but the first channel I thought..which was people whom I knew, atleast professionally..they kind of soft rejected the product. I don’t blame them, probably this problem they’re facing could be solved to some degree..atleast 60-70% by today’s AI tools. But I’m unable to convey that I wanna solve it end to end and for the other 30%. I really am confused. The savings are depleting bcz uk living expenses. I’m just wondering if anyone here faced this kind of demoralisation at the start, but still didn’t give up and saw the other side?   submitted by   /u/Outside-Force-103 [link]   [comments]
