Market Research for Startups
The market research toolkit for data-driven innovators.
This is the third-wave evolution of my first company (which still exists). I'm trying to maximally productize this service and make it as low-cost and as accessible as possible.
Got my first paying customer today!
It was someone I personally referred to MR4S.
They used the platform exactly like I hoped and expected, which is great to see. Still need a LOT more data before making any serious updates to the tool, but this feels good :)
This is ready to go, so I launched it to my audience on a few social networks.
I'm still planning to email all of my connections sometime soon, but I want to work out any lingering bugs and issues first. That list is valuable, and I don't want to pitch something to them that isn't 100% ready to go.
Just two weeks after coming up with the idea, I finished building the website and integrations.
I worked mostly nights. Several nights WAY too late. But it was fun, and I'm excited to see where this goes. I feel as if I've had this idea and vision for a while, though it only two weeks ago it became something specific in my mind.
I was on vacation. Stressed out of my mind because of how little I'd done to systematize and productize my main business.
I wanted to create a product-version of what I offered through my other company, so I could take an actual vacation for once in my life!
