@Pauline_Cx @feedbask_com Google is only returning your home page... interesting. It took us 9 months to go from new website to #1 ranking for OKR Software. Let me know if you want to exchange notes.

Small win of the day, but means a lot: 3 pages indexed. Actually, we've been struggled with @feedbask_com SEO for months. Google indexed only one page. I think we made a mistake with programmatic SEO a few months ago and Google punished us. So now I see we have three pages instead of one, I'm quite positive and optimistic we can do it and start to get more pages indexe

Yeah, agree. You need an audience for sure and then you need to communicate with them 6-8x the day of the launch via socials and email, like: - 48 hours before - 24 hours before - 3 hour countdown - 1 countdown to launch - it's live - 2 hours later update - 6 hours later update - Final hour update + last ask). I haven't been on PH. This is stuff I've read from 10-15 case studies on the topic. I definitely believe that luck plays a role, too. A busy PH day means 500+ votes to hit #1. Today is quiet and #1 has 250 votes.

We just crossed 1K weekly active teams using OKRs Tool 🔥 We've spent most of Q1 focusing on retention and weekly habits. It's paying off. We're on-track to 3X MRR in Q1.

There's a lot of talk of $0-1M or even $0-10K.... but if you can go from $0-1K, pat yourself on the back. Getting people to pay for your product is extremely difficult. Scroll X and you'll plenty of stories of people giving up because they couldn't acquire customers.

Some of the best feedback I've had so far has been from LinkedIn DMs. I try to connect with every new person that signs up and they often share their initial first impressions.

I am getting battered by link-builders/ spammers today. 100+ emails and no sign of slowing down 😞

@swapnakpanda What one thing could the person in this role before me have done better to help your team meet their OKRs faster?

In a job interview, the final question asked was : "Do you have any question for us?" What will you ask to seal the job?

I can already see the meeting where someone maps OKRs to ralph loop completion criteria. "Q3 objective: agent achieves 94% test pass rate autonomously." Same PowerPoint culture, new runtime.

Three types of company are emerging. Ones actively seeking AI-native workers. Ones paralysed by committee. And ones that will put "no AI" in job descriptions like it's 2002 and they're banning mobile phones.

@Layton_Gott Wow, completely misread. Still the $1 though. Getting people to follow you is easy. Getting people to buy from you is extremely difficult.

What’s harder to get? Your first 1k followers or your first $1 in revenue?

I see tons of "We just hit $X MRR in X days" posts, but so few users post MRR from their second month or third month. Retention is THE game.

Show me what you shipped this week. Doesn't matter if it's tiny. I just want to see people actually finishing things instead of talking about finishing things.
