3D Icon Editor's path to first $1000 profit

Hi Hackers!
I remember being in the stage when I had to chase customers and beg for product feedback. It's difficult to get info to work with when you're starting out: small sign-up rates, no paying users, no idea if someone needs your product.

That inspired me to start recording weekly Startup Roasts, where I'll share my first impressions on random products from IH and give them a strategy for reaching the first $1000 milestone. I believe that if you managed to make $1000 with your product without running ads, you have a much lower chance of working on something useless.

In the second episode, I roasted 3D Icon Editor and explained how it can reach its first $1000 profit.

What else would help Rasheed grow his hustle?
