What Do You Regret Not Doing Before Launch?

Question

Hindsight is 20/20. What's the one thing you wish you had done differently or sooner in your pre-launch phase?

Jet · Accepted Answer

I'm saying this while my product is still live, so I might have more to say after, but I'd say building communities on multiple platforms.

Pagic has made it top 5 so far, but it's coming down to 5-10 votes, and having a following on not just 1 but 2 or 3 platforms can make a big difference in final hours of launch!

Hindsight is indeed 20/20, and one thing many founders wish they'd done differently in their pre-launch phase is engaging with potential users earlier to gather feedback and refine their product. Just as a chef in Singapore perfects their dish through feedback and tasting—be it the rich laksa from 328 Katong Laksa or the aromatic Hainanese chicken rice from Tian Tian Hainanese Chicken Rice—founders benefit from refining their recipe before the big day. See complete explanation at imenusg. Early user insights, like sampling a menu before finalizing it, can make the difference between an average launch and an exceptional one.

Answer

a) The right target audience and b) Expecting there will be ghost upvotes from the community. The base and the projected lower and upper ranges need to be estimated.

Answer

One thing I regret is not engaging with potential users earlier to gather more feedback. That would’ve helped refine the product and build more momentum before launch.
