😞 Challenged myself to build a product in 3 weeks. But now have to wait for Google to approve the product.
I challenged myself to build a tool (https://snapus.co) that I needed in just a few weeks. I was quite excited to launch this week but because it uses Google OAuth to access Google Drive, I have to wait for Google's approval process which could take weeks. Feeling discouraged now. Not sure what to do now.
Just here to say the same things as everyone else!
Great job! Building a product in 3 weeks is no joke :)
Google should approve your product relatively quickly. My product has a Chrome Extension so we regularly have to wait for Google to approve it. The turnaround time is always 3-5 days.
Don't feel discouraged!
As a maker we always focus on development and neglect marketing and distribution.
Developing the project is only half of the journey, it is a good time now to focus on marketing and improving the visibility of your new project.
Try to get people to sign up for the waitlist and build an audience and interview potential customers to get their feedback!
All the best!
As HansDR says, focus on your marketing plan and launch.
I was recently approved by Google within 5 days. They're fairly quickly at the moment, so you should get approved very soon.
Ok, 5 days. Gives me hope. Checked out planzer. Very nice tool
Yea, it should be fast.
Thank you so much. If you have any feedback, then I would love to hear it.
Possible things to do:
Yeah my initial plan was to reach out to people in the wedding subreddits and my tool is for those about to get married. I guess I can look into other methods to reach that demographic
