I haven't met a founder that spends most of their time on product after the early stage. One of my friends running a VC backed startup said her time is divided like below. 60% - Writing emails 📧 30% - Raising money 💸 5% - Giving feedback to his team 🙌 5% - Thinking about the product and high level strategy 🤔 How much time do you spend on your products?

Early on 100%. Then less and less as it grows.

@david_t_kim 50%. I'm starting to get the word out, looking to bring enough users to test the efficiency of new features. 🚀
