710% Growth on my tiny productivity tool hit differently, here is what worked in January

I started building this tool on January 2025, launched in june 20, 2025.
But I was stragling to get users in my tool. As a Design Founder I know how to design tool, how to develop but marketing was hard.

Then I list down couple of things that I found from reddit & determine that I will do that next 1 month. And I did.

What was a fact:
Our tool is kind of new and need to educate our users why this will be best for your daily usage.

What I did:

  • create content calander for 1 month
  • create user persona about who will use our app
  • listed couple of platform I need to post daily
  • brainstrom about hook, what hook title maters most
  • posted daily on that platforms

Last 1 month I did this simple things and its changed the way I was expecting 🙌
Didn't overcomplicated marketing and shifted mind to simple but usable thing.

If you want to see my app here is that: https://www.slashit.app/
