    Spoiler alert: what does not kill you, "can" make you stronger 🎡 I've been building stuff ever since I'm five (literally). Always was proud to have an engineer mind. Until I wanted to make money from what I built. Lost many good products to my poor marketing. Got my lessons: ❌ Approaching people as numbers never work βœ… Be real ❌ Being everywhere is just inefficient βœ… Choose 3 channels and really be there ❌ Scaling is not your first step βœ… Do things that are not scale (credits to: Naval) Knowing what's right β‰  doing what's right Got beaten many times. Marketing became my fear whenever I build things. Am I going to give up on building and get a 9/5 job (yes offense). No. Founded Evercopy for non-marketers with marketing anxiety so AI can take over full-cycle marketing efforts, from planning to multimedia ad creation to optimization. This was tricky simply because Evercopy was a chicken & egg project. It's built to fight poor marketing for builders. But what if it does not work good enough to market itself well lolloll Well I guess I'll find out. But kindda happy with how it goes right now. btw if anyone is wondering: https://www.evercopy.ai/ πŸ’› πŸ’› πŸ’› πŸ’› Do you have marketing anxiety? How do you beat it?

    Love the honesty in your post! I've definitely been in the 'marketing anxiety' boat before. Have I beaten it? Not really damn loll. Well I guess the hard part is to have a one-for-all recipe for marketing since each product is different. And market is changing always. So I guess using AI will be the intuitive method of doing it. Congrats on Evercopy - looks legit!!

    Let'ss gooo!!! Congrats on this Alex πŸ‘πŸ‘ Honestly feels stressed to do something you fear but courageous move. I've done the same thing for peer coding once. Always working remotely with my team and did not get enough from the existing tools out there. Then coded a peerme in 3-4 days but never with an intention to make revenue. Team used it for a while but it deff needed improvement. Anyhow - I think what you did is the best way to have a PMF from day zero. So keep going!
