Easy to build, hard to sell. Agree?

Hey everyone!

I’ve heard many solopreneurs say, "Easy to build, hard to sell." I totally get it! Building a great product is one thing, but figuring out how to effectively sell it can be a real challenge.

I want to invite you to join r/startupscale (https://www.reddit.com/r/startupscale/), a community I recently created to support those who have built amazing projects but need help making profitable sales. I’m sharing insights from my past experiences and learnings on growing businesses, including how to launch successful products on platforms like Product Hunt.

We’ll cover everything from getting your first customers to basic marketing and growth principles. If you're handling a startup or side project, you can definitely learn how to sell it, run growth campaigns, and develop marketing strategies.

This community is all about sharing knowledge and learning from each other. I’d love for you to join us, share your challenges, and help you scale your business or startup. Looking forward to learning from you, too!

    Hey, thanks for creating this community — sounds like a great initiative! 🚀

    I totally relate to the “easy to build, hard to sell” struggle. I’m currently building my own Shopify app and learning that growth and marketing are a whole new skill set.

    Looking forward to learning from others and contributing as well!

    Easy to sell if you're a sales guy (myself) but harder to build :D

    that is interesting spam, there are way more people in Reddit than here, you will have more success growing your subscribers there, keep this place clear for people looking for partnerships.

      It's better to spread awareness to as many places as possible. Even if it helps just one person, it's worth it. Don't view everything through the negative lens of spamming all the time.
