Building virtual offices for remote teams

Hi, I'm Chris, currently a Product Manager, and a long-time software builder and IndieHacker.

I'm working on a really fun and exciting new business called Vocal (check it out). We're building next-gen virtual office software for remote teams. I may even be bold enough to call it Metaverse 1.0 for business.

I just went into private beta last week and received an overwhelming amount of feedback and engagement from the IH community. You guys are awesome - thank you for the support!

I'm looking for a co-founder/builder who's interested in working on Vocal and who is excited to learn, grow, and build with me. We use:

  • Electron.js (HTML, CSS, Typescript, Vue.js)
  • Webflow (HTML, CSS, Javascript)
  • Express.js (Typescript)
  • Livekit.io(Video/Audio, Typescript)

If you know Javascript/Typescript, HTML, CSS, Webflow - basically any of the above technologies - and are interested in working on this really fun business, let me know! I'd love to chat :).

    Hi @prattcmp, I checked your platform Vocal and it really looks cool. As someone who works in the Video Conferencing industry, I would like to learn more about
    your product and help you with it. Feel free to reach out to me at sweta.khot@itechnotion.com.

    Good luck with your product!👍

    Interesting.

    On you home page you say this:

    "Virtual offices with video and voice rooms, for remote teams with young professionals. Free for a limited time."

    Are you positioning this product specifically for younger folk?

    1. 1

      Yes! We find that younger people are struggling the most with remote work and are most likely to benefit from Vocal.

      Of course, anyone of any age can use Vocal :), and we also sell B2B to managers and senior leaders.

        Makes sense :)

        I'm a 50-year-old Marketer... so you're kinda alienating me even though you have an interesting product.

        Don't position yourself for a younger audience, which you are doing with that statement.

        Address them via content and campaigns. Talking about their specific challenges.

        Position yourself as 'innovative' and / or a new way of doing things Vs the old, inefficient and tired approach. Legacy is a good word too to describe this.

          This is great feedback! I like the word “legacy” too. Want to chat further?
