Ask IH: What milestone have you achieved this month?
We at draftss.com, have spent this month in gathering feedback from our customers and visitors on the website. We've focused on developing our product by optimizing our landing page and adding more than 100+ design work to our portfolio.
Got 80 paying customers and 400 nonpaying. Prepped for new feature releases (Dropbox integration, library sharing, notes/annotation). Got the app in front of a government minister.
That's quite an achievement in itself. Keep it up.
Awesome work!
I surpassed 500 signed-up users on Alchemist Camp, and am now at 544.
Reached 32k customers of our WP themes - www.premiumcoding.com
Congratulations. What was your MoM growth?
I took all month, but on Sunday I launched the first iteration of my premium membership - www.StripTogether.co/club
Congratulations. What are your plans for this month?
This month I'm fine-tuning my offering, and improving my marketing :)
I've identified and reached out to 5 prospective clients for my startup and have started the process of setting up interviews with them!
That's great. Any details of your startup?
Yeah! It's a business-client transparency tool!
The problem is that often times, especially in projects / service based work, the business/freelancer and the client can become disconnected which can result in miscommunications that waste everyones time and money ( built a feature different than expected, the project is over budget and no one knew, etc)
The goal is to implement a platform in which a business can aggregate data from their internal systems, to show a client a live, 'client readable', estimation of where the project is and what is happening. This way businesses/freelancers dont waste their time in the wrong direction, and clients have a feeling of control and understanding that is almost unheard of in service based work today.
I have a very basic MVP that I'm rolling out to the prospective clients I mentioned earlier, but I'm focusing on working with a small group of people (5-20 teams or freelancers), aggregating their feedback, implementing it, and then doing a public release.
Started learning Mandarin.
I've just launched the first preview of my product, Meta.
This month I am hoping to get it in front of my first user, or more hopefully.
