First of all, a big THANK YOU to this amazing community. From day one, I've truly enjoyed the positive and exciting conversations about thinking big, looking ahead, and offering support. Matilda Workspace's launch was both exciting and nerve-wracking. I've gathered valuable lessons along the way, all of which are part of a story I wanted to share with you. Perhaps you'll find some information helpful for your upcoming launch! https://medium.com/@matildaworks...

Laura, thanks for sharing your launch journey with such transparency. Your insights on what worked and what didn't are invaluable for anyone navigating their own product launch.

@ryan_motiff Thanks! I personally read a few articles about launches before and they really helped me with our launch.

Launching soon!

Congrats on you launch, did any of the sign ups convert to paid plan?

Laura Riehl @laura_riehl

@baensaf Thanks! We can't tell yet, as everyone starts off with a free plan and once you run out of "credits" (projects etc.) you have to convert to a paid plan, who won't happen in the first couple weeks, so we can only tell in a month time or so. When are you launching?

Thank you so much for sharing. Our team is purely engineer background and this is really new to all of us. Did you engage mostly with communities relevant to your product or all new product launches in different sectors?

Laura Riehl @laura_riehl

@yc_j we engaged in pretty much all sectors as our product covers quite a wide range or our target audience (project management can be for individuals, employees or entrepreneurs, no matter which area they are working in). Glad to hear it helped you! Let me know if you have any more questions, always happy to help. :)
