@vera_ratovska the silver lining there is you'd have two ways to still move forward: pivot to the right target target audience for your product, or pivot to the right product for your target audience
Launching soon!
QA isn't gd enough
small points of failure that add up to a bad experience
@stephen_smith67 users will forgive most of the small small things if your website/app/cloud/whatever is fast.
Launching soon!
Blocker when huge traffic coming in
@distartin Yes indeed! But at least you will have the assurance that people like your product with huge traffic 😁
users really need this?
user having to install the software and feel it is a waste of time or lazy, instead they decide to not buy but they end up missing out value of actually what they could have got from the software otherwise
@shekhar_iyer That's a tough one I agree, having the barrier of downloading and installing the software is a big step which you need to overcome by offering a really good value. In one psychological research I've read that customers are more likely to skip the shop if there is one step at the doors and would rather enter the shops which are having the flat surface at the front door. But if your software is providing the value that won't stop people from downloading it.
Not answering a real problem ! What about you @vladimir_zivkovic ?
Wrong Product Market fit
That no one will want to use it :)
@vladimir_zivkovic absolutely!
We have been doing a ton of validation and we have been in closed beta for a couple of months. The feedback is very positive.
But the feeling can still be there in the back of your head 😂
convincing my target audience
Change in trend & change in technology.
It's not a fear, but a hard part of the process.
Building my authority and a personal brand where my target audience is
Too soon in the market and product keeping up to huge traffic.
As a startup founder, my biggest fear when it comes to my product is the possibility of it not resonating with our target audience. I have put in countless hours of research and development to ensure that our product meets the needs and wants of our target demographic, but there is always the chance that we may have missed the mark.
Additionally, we are constantly working to improve and innovate our product, but there is always the fear that our competitors may come out with something that completely outshines ours.
My biggest fear is that our product won't meet the high expectations of our customers, but we are continuously working to improve and deliver an exceptional experience.
The possibility of technological limitations hindering the full potential of our product is a concern, but we strive to push boundaries and embrace innovation to overcome any obstacles that may arise.
