@sobedominik So I see it as just another competitor. I got first mover advantage, they got access to free public knowledge that I created which is part of how I grew my product, fair enough.

I agree it hurts the community tho as folks will seek alternate way to grow instead of #buildinpublic

@threehourcoffee Is this an "official" #buildinpublic film. First film I saw Twitter community shared many times πŸ˜‚.
Get back to #BuildInPublic after 1.5 weeks break πŸ’ͺ

Features being built this week:

β€’ See tweets you scheduled in a Notion Calendar

β€’ Change scheduled time by drag and drop in the calendar or changing 'Scheduled time' property
Engaging with other makers is highly underrated part of #BuildInPublic

A big part of #BuildInPublic is to make friends and have fun with others!
Building on Twitter, the pressure to ship/launch is real. I spent more than a week on product dev but still can't ship yet.

Can't blame anything other than myself. It hurts but I try to be transparent, (part of #buildinpublic I think). Gotta work harder and be more tactical!
@Twitter analytics integration is done. Now I can see all detailed analytics in @NotionHQ, write formulas, add tags, sort, filter, see different views, link to other docs.

Next up is @revue integration so that I can manage email lists and send emails in Notion.
#buildinpublic
Sadly, didn’t go as I expected. Half opened ➑️ half clicked, only 1 call booked

Lucky that no one unsubscribed so that I can experiment with another tactics next time

Just sent a super-simple email to early access subscribers to ask for more user chats. The idea is:

- Remind the reader of you.
- Short, focus on the problem and show that you can solve it.

Will share the conversion rate soon!

The key difference and biggest difficulty is to be consistent. Perfection, emotion, failure are obstacles.

#buildinpublic
Build in public.

Learn in public.

Be you in public.

Converse in public.

Make friends in public.

Build community in public.

Live in public. ❀️
Tomorrow I'll send an email to 41 subscribers in @NotionTweet email list to schedule more user chats.

Gotta do some research on how I should write the email? What is your experience? 🧐

Will share with you how I write it and what is the conversion rate! #buildinpublic
My hypothesis: being able to cultivate, plan, tweet, and see analytics reflected directly into Notion solves this problem.

This is a solution hypothesis, look like it can only be validated by a product? How should I test it with minimal effort?

#buildinpublic
The problem of staying consistent with high-quality tweets can be partially solved by using a note-taking app, a scheduling tool, and Twitter analysis.

But this method requires too much work that many can't stay consistent doing this alone.

#buildinpublic
Update on NotionTweet.app

Start to see a common problem between people who are interested: can't stay consistent with high-quality tweets because they don't have an effective way to cultivate, plan, tweet, and reflect.

I recreated the @NotionHQ macOS Login using @TailwindCSS.

It was super fun πŸ₯³ See the code at play.tailwindcss.com/wjRUso3PGd

What do you think, what do you want to see me recreate next?

#Notion #buildinpublic
After talking to 2 first potential users, I realized how important it is to talk to users, even when you don't have a product.

You know how the user would use the product, how valuable it is, what feature they like, and what feature they want to pay for.

#buildinpublic
Reaching out to customers is real power, arguably at any stage. It is not easy though, I see it's a skill that I put the effort into learning now.

Thanks, @yongfook for sharing πŸ™πŸ»

#buildinpublic
I reached out personally to about 15 SaaS customers who recently churned.

Within a day, about 5 replied.

1 with really detailed feedback that will most likely make its way quickly into the product.

100% worth the time to send the emails.

SaaS founders, do this!
Finally have 200 followers πŸ₯³, it's so small but I'm so happy with the speed it's growing right now.

Thanks, everyone! More tweets and insights about building SaaS for @NotionHQ users to come 🀜🏻

#notion #productivity #buildinpublic
Update on NotionTweet.app

Just talked to a user today and learned so much that I decided to hold onto product dev, instead, find 10 users who would use and benefit from only 1 feature, then get back to the building.

#buildinpublic
It's no surprise that YC asks founders to do only 2 things: talk to users and write code.

It's a big surprise to what code you write after you actually talk to your first users.
