SaaS App, for podcasters, make your podcast interactive! Free account period closing soon!
So.... what happened with the customer feedback?
I haven't gotten a response yet from those I sent, I will need to follow up a few times I think. Am going to try and cold email some others with a much lighter approach. The individual demo videos took a long time to make, and my email was probably WAY too long. I'm really bad at this part so will need to try different things.
EPIC

@sunshowerlisa great job getting this far, hope you kill it at that YC interview
WIP
AutomatedApi.com
In chrome I got an SSL error on your site. I recently setup SSL for my site, happy to help with that if you need any assistance.
On the site itself - when I read your headline, my immediate question was 'how does it work' - I wanted to see code samples, examples of the kind of endpoints you could host, screenshots, etc. Instead the info I got was kind of stating the obvious (save money, etc). Might be worth putting in more 'how it works' kind of info up front.
Thanks for the heads up on the SSL. It's supposed to be automated but it looks like I have some config to fix.
And actually I'm working on the code samples and such right now. It's a major missing piece of the product at the moment, and one which life has been unfortunately getting in the way of actually working on.
I got so sick of this that I started using the automatic certs DigitalOcean provides on their load balancers hehe
I may give them a look. I use another service (whose name escapes me right now) too for one site. Azure App Services have some slick extensions that manage LetsEncrypt certs automatically, but it seems I missed a step when migrating this site to it.
I got an SSL error as well. It looks like your Let's Encrypt certificate expired on April 9.
Thanks for the heads up, I've got that on my list for today.
EPIC
By end of 2019:
5K MR (3.64 of 5K.)
By end of April:
First day of the experiment completed and it looks promising. Average Google Ad CTR for my industry is 2.69%. Jeanius is 19.32%. Average conversion rate for my industry is 2.81%. Jeanius is 36.81%.
(Will update after 1 week.)
LAST NIGHT
TONIGHT
I actually had an epiphany last night based on @csallen's wisdom bomb.
KUDOS: @csallen. He's the man.
WIP: Jeanius
What was the wisdom bomb epiphany?
I want to sit on the epiphany for a hot second. (And likely write a post about it.) I'm not entirely sure how I feel about it, want to make certain it's not a shiny ball and like to see the results of the experiment.
But @csallen called out @pcattori for thinking too damn small. And picking fruit that wasn't the lowest hanging.
So we'll see. Yesterday, I picked up my first client for $699. Tonight, I launch a landing page that'll take less than 2 nights to launch.
3.64 of 5k? You're killing it. Is that all from Happyendings?
(Laughing!) Not 3.64K of 5K. 3.64 of 5000! But I'll get there!

Great job going after those customer interviews! Any thoughts about you can increase conversion rate from "ask" to "accept"?
Thanks and YES! First, I'll start following up w/ folks. Second, reevaluate who and how I'm asking. I think these transcripts will show me several contexts to wrap the benefits of chatting w/ me.

Thanks, @vcmartins! Sometimes it's the quiet stuff that's hardest so squeeze in.
Any pre-peeks at the landing page you're concocting?
