I launched my 25th product and made $149

Congratulations on your success! I am curious: how did you decide to develop (idea to execution) these products?

It seems as if you have the ability to create great products, but I am just wondering if a good approach might not be to validate your ideas (e.g. landing pages) before building the products. You then build up potential customers. There are good articles on landing your first 100 customers.

I’d recommend that you follow an iterative process of product development. Constantly engaging with customers and refining your product, i.e. customer-led innovation. Your goal is then to quickly find a profitable business model for your startup. Look at LEAN and Design Thinking.

If you have a real painful problem that you are addressing, the solution to that problem is what you want to sell. So this becomes more of a need that you are fulfilling for a customer, than a product you are selling.

Then on ideas for marketing:

• Articles on how your solution helps solve problems of uour customers
• Social media ads
• Word of mouth

The marketing strategy would be dependent on the type of product though. E.g. B2B, B2C, SaaS, PaaS, etc.

Good luck to you and I wish you great success!

your tools are very useful and cute, best wishes

It's a neat project, here are my first impressions.

Promotion-wise, I think the product is well suited to SEO. You are solving a common problem, and I imagine there are a lot of users looking for exactly this. Focus on what makes your product unique (doc/pdf/scan capabilities) or you'll be competing unnecessarily.

Product-wise, I saw any in anytospeech, but it didn't register. I saw the text-field input at eyeline on page load and thought, "oh, I've seen this before." The features that separate you the from other sites are visible, but I missed them completely at first glance. My eyes are pulled to the bright input fields. The voices are a bit old-school, where new ML tts voices are more natural sounding, I don't think this is a major issue, but it's noticeable.

edit: reworded for clarity

So you've previously released 25 products, and the main issue with the majority of them was marketing. If you introduce a new product, marketing will be the most challenging aspect again, therefore my advise is that you know how to build a product extremely well. Next time, instead of creating a product, create a distribution, scale it for a year, and then launch the product.
For example, create a directory website for b2b AI tools and scale it for a year; you will have a lot of data insights as well as traff,ic/distribution and then launch your own b2b AI product with your own distribution.

you are best

Your'e real serial-entrepreneur

Congratulations on the launch of AnyToSpeech!

Leveraging your past successes, consider starting with targeted social media ads, content marketing, and contacting relevant online communities.

What strategies have worked well for you in the past?

Hey Alex congratulations on your exits and as well as on your 25th product AnyToSpeech!

I find it really impressive how you've been have to launch so many products and move so quick! Definitely a capability I need to work on :)

In terms of the marketing, I have actually just been working on a case study that I will be releasing soon, and it revolves around an AI tool called RoomGPT which grew to over a million users in less than 6 months, and what I learned from it is the following:

• try making short form user generated content demonstrating the capabilities of your AI tool on social platforms like TikTok and Youtube reels. Viral organic growth has been a big factor to the success of RoomGPT
• on that note, consider partnering with different related influencers to promote your AI tool and in exchange give them a cut of the sales or perhaps even a small equity stake to help you go more viral.
• try listing/promoting it on other AI related channels like TheresanAIforthat. A lot of AI projects have gained traffic via those platforms.
• and as others suggested consider working on the SEO of your website

I hope this helps Alex. Keep crushing it and much love!

This is a nice tool, but I believe you should invest some time in the design. When I first saw it, I felt that it was not much different from similar apps I have come across. The current design gives the website an outdated look and fails to highlight what sets it apart (documents and pictures).
best wishes, and may the tool achieve even greater success with an upgraded design.

Well how about that for timing ;)

Ohh that is cool. Congrats!

Grab testimonials from your 500+ customers. Nothing is more convincing than social proof.

Of your 25 products how many of them have been B2B plays?

Great project! did you try seo?
I'm a newbie and I'm learning to make my first web apps, I want to use a model similar to yours, the app can be used for free but there are paid plans. How do you do this? I mean what database to use and what auth do you use? The hardest part for me at the moment is managing that.

You probably heard about TikToks with subjects like Trump vs Biden paying Minecraft, etc. And It's clear who is your target audience - people who want to make similar content. But in that case, it's more like a fun product to use. Personally, I see your product as more business-oriented. But how it stands out before other competitors on the market?

we are launching our product facia ai on product Hunt , needs serious suggestions, can some one test it and give us feedback?
