CrowdParty

When I started CrowdParty, I wanted the platform to be as frictionless as possible when it comes to hosting and joining games.

While a lot of other products used sign-ups as possible lead gen, I thought that this would add friction. I wanted the product to be the convenient and hassle-free.

The only two scenarios where a sign-up is required are:

• when you subscribe to a Pass
• when you want to create and have a My Rooms page of your own Custom Rooms

Otherwise, hosting a game, joining a game, creating your own Custom Room can all be done without signing up.

It seems that users are signing up anyway, so that's been great!

While we may have missed out on potential newsletter subscribers and leads, our frictionless approach has definitely become one of our key features!

It's been such a tremendous journey trying to build and grow CrowdParty.

To date, we've:

• hosted over 2000 games
• have 154 registered users
• grown to $200 MRR
• averaging 140 visits / day

They're humble figures, but I'm just grateful to have been able to bring joy to Zoom calls during a tough time.

Pretty exciting stuff! We knew the Holiday season was going to be a huge opportunity for us, so we doubled down on it.

Unlike Halloween and Thanksgiving, we were just right on time with this one, releasing our Holiday game in the first week of December.

Within the Holiday game, we also launched a new game called With-Draw, a witty drawing game where pairs are asked to draw two random words. Players would then try to guess the word based on the two drawings! 🎨

We started running Facebook, Google, LinkedIn, and Twitter ads when we released the Holiday game. The CPCs have been pretty good on both Facebook and Google so we decided to keep those running and paused the others.

Overall, pretty happy with the results! Looking forward to more growth!

We're excited to have launched https://crowdparty.app to make Zoom calls suck less!

Our initial launch was targeted towards LinkedIn and our immediate social media circles!

We ran a social campaign on Instagram by doing a giveaway. The campaign boosted us with 20 or so followers, not quite the numbers we were looking for, but impressions nonetheless!

The launch brought in 1,115 visitors that week. And we reached our peak traffic the day after launch!

Overall, it was a pretty exciting! We even had a launch trailer and everything!
