My first saas Printalytics is finally live!
Well, sorta. I ended up making the landing page live sooner than planned. My app integrates with several platforms & services, some of which require approval, and the plan was to spend a couple more weeks polishing things while working through the approval processes, and then go live after all the integrations were available.
But after getting past the half way point a couple of days ago (4 of 6 integrations good to go) I figured "close enough" and flipped the switch, making the landing page visible to the world with a "pre-launch" signup form until I'm ready to open registration.
Even though there are some typos, and it's kinda slow, and not very polished, and other stuff that I was intent on fixing before going live... it still feels damn good!
Btw, Printalytics is multi-platform order monitoring and analytics app for e-commerce shops that use Print-on-Demand services (such as Printful or Printify) to fulfill their orders. It's the classic "scratching my own itch" origin story: I have my own print-on-demand based e-comm business, tracking profitibility & keeping up with orders across multiple shops & print services was a constant headache, and Printalytics began as an internal tool that I developed to make things easier. There are thousands of other shop owners dealing with the same frustrations, and I'm hoping Printalytics will make their businesses easier to run like it has mine.
The first version is better than nothing! Wish u luck with your journey
Very true :) thanks!
Executing and having a rough first version is better than just sticking to the perfection loop of any product. Good job with pushing it live @MicahV! I'm sure you will keep making Printalytics better as time goes.
Thanks @harshvijay! I certainly intend to, it will be a work in progress.
That's great!
You can always polish the site later on if needed.
