Self-hosted social media management software.

Visit Website
February 3, 2023 I have made more than $1000 so far from selling software before launch. Validated idea.

There are not that many, but that encourages me.

How did I do it?

  • For a week I developed a small concept and put it on GitHub.

  • I made some screenshots of the software

  • I created a small landing page with the sign-up form for the waitlist.

  • I posted on social media and other channels.

  • For 6 months I collect subscribers and suggestions and work on the product.

  • Since I didn't have a price list yet, people were interested in buying early for a discount. So I developed the website and completed the price list and created a lifetime deal.

  • A week ago I sent an email to all subscribers to be an early adopter.

That's it, I validated my idea!

It's very hard to earn trust, It took me almost 6 months, but in the end, it's satisfying and it motivates me to work on the product and create the coolest and most useful Self-hosted social media management software.

I'm tired of paying monthly subscription fees for social media management software and I think a self-hosted solution is a better option for me and for marketing agencies.
