#buildinpublic UPDATE

Seems that Elon decided to get rid of third party apps.

Many, many apps have issues with API limits which are "adjusted".

I will share links and more info in the next tweet, maybe someone will find it helpful or interesting.

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We have been the victims of our own success.

Under the huge wave of new customers our API limits cracked.

We had to take drastic measures to give our paid customers our core features.

How is your week going?

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We have decided to run a promo campaign during the holidays. 😁

If your trial is ended you can find the promo code in the yellow banner within the app.

Our campaign ends in 24hrs soooo....

Hurry up I guess 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We have surprise during Holidays for those whose trial ended 😁

Hint: read text on yellow banner while in app 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We're designing our new homepage.

With new features and improvements coming out, almost, weekly current homepage is just outdated.

Now, we have more experience and we're putting every bit of it into the new homepage.

@mkrvaric6 99% of my content comes either from my engagement (I get an idea from my comments, or other people's comments) or my #buildinpublic stories 😁

The rest comes on a whim 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We ran Twitter Ads again.

The only thing we changed from the last time is instead of bitly we used plain URLs.

The difference is that our CTR is 25% higher 🤯

@anyayahan25 Of course it is.

If nothing it will probably attract new followers to your profile.

I would suggest to engage as much as possible with other BIP people and indie hackers.

To make your tweet more visible you can use #buildinpublic and #indiemaker hashtags 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

Recently we're trying to do something about abandoned cart.

I did a small research and here are results:

🔸 69% of online carts are abandoned
🔸 45% of abandoned carts emails are opened
🔸 21% of all are clicked on
🔸 50% of users who clicked purchased

#buildinpublic is more than just talking about your success and sharing your journey.

It's about community.

If you have a problem, share it. You'll be amazed by how many people are going to offer their help and solution to your problem.

#buildinpublic and #indiemaker folks I need your help 😅

So, a lot of people click to upgrade from free to paid, but only few 11-12% actually do upgrade.

Since Stripe keeps their mail, would it be creepy to send them an email and ask them why they didn’t convert? 😅

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We're slowly adding gamification to Engagement Builder.

We want to help them be more active and achieve better results here.

Do you think that gamification increases users' interaction?

#buildinpublic UPDATE

I really need to double down on articles, but I honestly don't have the time.

My day job is really busy lately. 😅

Instead of switching my focus constantly, I am focused on one channel that is working tremendously.

Twitter! 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

What is an acceptable churn rate for indie makers' SaaS?

So far we have 2.7%.

I can't determine whether it's a lot or not, I know I would love to have 0 😅

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We’ve been working on new website copy for @EngagementBuild

We asked our customers to help us and I just want to give huge shoutout everyone who helped us in this process ❤️

Big thank you 🙏

Hey #indiehackers and #buildinpublic people 😁

What marketing channel works the best for your product/service?

#buildinpublic UPDATE

I made a mistake 😅

We ran Twitter Ads for a few days and instead of putting our landing page link, I put direct link to our application.

This resulted in a lot of people giving up even before signing up 🫣

#buildinpublic UPDATE

We're cooking something new 🤩

IMHO this is going to be the most interesting feature, yet, on @EngagementBuild 😁

Little sneak peek 😁

#buildinpublic UPDATE

My friend Emme and I loved our journey so much that we're making some plans for our new joint journey. 😁

I can't wait to share this news with you 😁

@robertodigital_ I am trying to move #buildinpublic inside my company IRL.

Tomorrow my co-founder and I have a meeting about potential project that would be built by our agency but on BIP platform 😁
