Because I stick to being a helpful human no matter how hard events unpack. Because I believe that there's an afterlife where only those who cared will be cared of, and this is the fairest and most noble way it all should be. So I am remarkable because I don't care what people might think as long as I believe I'm acting the right way, and that makes people noticing me, makes me an entrepreneur...

Hi Steph,
Thanks for proposing to help makers, that's cool.
I must create a strong community for my product before launch for it to succeed: it's a platform that allows people to file requests to local businesses. The unique thing about it is that people can join a request to notify they have the same needs/complaints. The business can propose solutions to his customers, and when satisfied,...
I'm Steph. I've grown products like Trends.co to millions in ARR and sold 6 figures in my own. AMA!

Pitch your startup idea here, let people (and me) start following your project
I'll start by pitching my own project:
WeAlly is a place where people can meet when they encounter an issue with a company. The issue can be as wide as complaining about the cost of repairing a Tesla tire, and as tight as proposing an improvement idea to a local business. Usually, you don't know who else in the world had an issue with the product or service he purchased.
The idea is to allow...

Hi Ann-Laure,
Awesome achievements! Congratulations!!
I've read your answers here, and I understand that you recommend having 1K adopters before haunting your product, since they can "attest" that you really offer value.
I realize my plan was inverted since I was relying on PH to gain my first 1K users. The idea is to build a community with whom I share why the product I'm lunching matters,...

Can you share what worked for you in building a community?
One of the most counterintuitive quote I hear is: "do things that don't scale" :-D, it's so right: you can't have friends at scale, friendship is a slow very intimate process. But at the same time, you need hundreds of people in the community, and no one has hundreds of friends (expect politicians, and I wouldn't be like them :-p).
Yeah, so who has some advice to share

I'm concerned about building a community that knows about the product so that they can be as excited as me when I will launch. I'm a complete newbie in community building, so after reading some docs about it, I'm learning by trying

The most difficult thing for me is by far creating a community: through all my life I developed a negative opinion about talking and not doing because I saw many people talking without doing anything, or worse, stealing the work of subordinates because they talk well and know how to present the information.
Building a community is, by essence, talking and exchanging opinions (which I would...

I get them from my everyday problems, I try to imagine how it could be if that problem was solved, then I imagine what could solve/reduce that problem. I'm a daydreamer since I was 4 or less :-)
The good thing is that this is an exercise to the brain, so when you get used to it, ideas start coming more often. I like a quote of Coco Chanel who once said: "take my ideas, i'll have others"
Where do you get your inspiration/ideas?

How to find communities/influencers? Google seems not to help for my market
Hi, dear Makers :)!
I have a "difficult to Google" audience for my product: Let me explain what I do so that I can put some context:
I help people file requests/complaints towards businesses in a public manner (as review websites), with two major differences:
1. Anyone can join an existing request instead of creating his own, making that request more popular and visible
2. Businesses can...

Understanding how to start a community on PH. I'm launching a place where people can support/join any customer that complains about an issue with a business. This can filter out false/unfair complaints by making them having fewer people while letting businesses better understand what their customers complain about most.
