Landing page and early access

Here we are owlduty.com! I'm proud of this one, I wanted eye catching colors 😍.

It's very important for me to create a landing page but for early adopters. It helps me prepare my pitch, explain what I envision and project myself in the business.

🤖 I don't have much time with a kid, multiple projects, and a day job! I always reuse the same personal template and process. I use Tailwindcss (extremely efficient CSS framework), github to host and version my code, Netlify to get a HTTPS certificate with a CDN and automated deployments (check it, it's an amazing service), and Mailchimp to collect subscriptions and send campaign emails. All of that for FREE, except the domain name with OVH.

🎨 As I said I don't have time, so I also used undraw.co to get my landing page illustrations. Also I subscribed to plus.undraw.co which is absolutely amazing and allow me to support this project! I coupled their on-brand covers tool with favicon.io to transform an owl emoji to an image. I used the owl emoji as a logo, a favicon and a brand communication.

It's not perfect of course, but enough to get it done and iterate! Now let's back to the code and collect, hopefully, some emails for my early access.

✨ About the early access : By subscribing now, you benefit from free access to the services and products of the early access and will receive e-mails from our newsletter. Once you subscribe you get a forever access.

    Congrats on the launch!

    The landing page looks nice overall, maybe a bit too standard/generic (because of the stock art images). I like the colors.

    Regarding the copy, I am not 100% sure I understand what your product does. If it's an automated service or a team of people doing stuff.

      Hi thanks!

      I agree regarding the images. I will replace them with screenshots as soon as I have developed the UI ! It will be much more authentic and trustworthy. But this version allows me to see if people are interested by the service, which seems to be the case since I got my first subscriptions today 🎉. It's encouraging!

      Thank you for the feedback. The platform will offer automated services. What part made you think it might involve direct people ? I do not exclude to have a support later, but the rest should be automated.

      I will fix this asap, the message should be clear. I really appreciate the feedback!
