    In the beginning, one should focus more on A-level support than just shipping features.

    I want to say neither... Both actions you mentioned are directed to retention, not customer acquisition. If you want to attract customers through features, they have to be more than just updates, but actual NEW functionality that was requested by your leads before. Basically, if you didn't get the client because you couldn't provide a feature they needed - then there's a chance to attract new customers to this particular feature (it has to be thoroughly researched before development). Quality support is just a must-have, but it doesn't exist on its own, and to experience your support, users need to become your customers first. customer acquisition is a marketing and sales task, not dev or CS

    @katyaveremeichik Thanks for highlighting this important distinction. It's a valuable reminder that development and customer support need to work hand-in-hand with marketing and sales for a comprehensive approach to growth.

    I would say quality support often has a more immediate and profound impact. It directly influences how clients perceive your commitment to their needs and can significantly enhance their overall experience with your product. Regular feature updates are important too, but without excellent support, clients may not fully appreciate or engage with the new features you provide. Balancing both effectively can lead to better long-term client relationships and growth.

    I think quality support might edge out as slightly more important.

    @kelsey_s I agree Kelsey. Regular feature updates are important too, but without solid support, it’s hard to maintain a satisfied customer base. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

    If you’re talking about attracting new users, I think features are key, and regular updates can really boost your appeal. But if you want to keep users around, top-notch support is a must.

    I think better features attract more clients, and these regular updates can be a form of quality support.

    imo quality support is more about client success and retention. feature updates, especially if framed in alleviating some user problem, are more effective at client acquisition.

    @duffdevone I agree. In my experience, quality support is more about ensuring client success and retention. It's about building trust and helping users get the most out of the product.

    I have to say cold outreach and providing useful content on your social platform of choice. Once you stay consistent you start getting known as that authority. It takes time but being social, giving valuable insights about your journey, and reaching out to help begins to compound.

    Ideally, we should be good at both but good support is something that keeps them happy for a long time.. Even if we keep adding new things, if we can't help our customers well when they need it, they might leave us. Good support builds trust and keeps customers coming back.

    Quality support is more important for attracting clients, as it directly impacts user satisfaction and trust. Regular feature updates are also crucial but secondary to the immediate need for effective support.

    @da_vid_grunwald Absolutely, Quality support is indeed key because it builds trust and keeps clients happy. Happy clients are more likely to stay with us long-term and even refer others. It's the foundation of strong client relationships and sustainable growth.

    Quality support is generally more crucial for attracting clients. It builds trust and ensures a positive user experience, which can be more compelling than regular feature updates alone.

    Why not both? They are not mutually exclusive. But if you have to prioritize one over the other, it has to be quality support.

    Regular feature updates keep clients engaged and show that a company is active and improving.

    @mufti_ Definitely, regular feature updates play a significant role in keeping clients engaged. They show that a company is not only active but also committed to continuous improvement and addressing user needs.
