Hey Product Hunters, what is the most time consuming segment of your project and how do you delegate the time to be more efficient?

For me, content generation consumes the most amount of time at the moment.
Understanding all the challenges faced by the technical team and other stakeholders, understanding how to make it easier and accessible for our customers to learn from.
Since we are a academy, we focus on teaching. So content is pretty much our break and butter.

@chirag_dodiya Yeah, content is the most time consuming.

This time we are depending on the stage of development of the project. At first, these were interviews with users. Even when development had already begun, we continued to communicate with them and look for confirmation of the need for the product and what functionality we needed. The second stage was development, of course.
And right now, most of the time is spent on meetings with team members. Because of them, we discuss feedback, brainstorm how to satisfy the user and look for solutions for bugs. In general, meetings in my calendar are top consumers
Fixing Bugs. Especially when I don't know wher they come from. After that it is generating growth!
@mohammad_elzahaby Bugs are always on the list...

For me it was/is:
1. Product design (from scratch)
2. Competitor research
3. Marketing / branding
I'm kinda glad we outsources coding / development.
@yampolskymax Keep us updated!
Worrying if I'm describing my product right in such a way that the users feel compelled to try it out. ChatGPT only made it worse.
@siddhardha_kancharla Oh yes, once you include ChatGPT in that process you get split decision...

Oh boy, that would be scriptwriting for me. We're a video production service, so we take care of the entire pre-production process as well, including writing scripts. I spend so much time getting the perfect intro and the catchiest wordplay only to overthink everything and then start all over again.
I guess I manage to be more efficient by stopping myself from overthinking. I like to write out my ideas, organize them, review them a few times, and then let my team look through my writing and tell me what they think should be changed. I trust their judgment and they always get straight to the point, so this saves me a lot of time and stress.
At this current time with paylinkz.app it has to be marketing and content creation. Probably because it is not my strongest area
@tawheed_on Building and learning that's the part of the process.

Marketing atm
@tunc_emran One of the biggest time consumers!
designing, writing, sharing. AI tools do the heavy lifting and I make proper changes.

At the moment it's our product hunt launch Liffery, which is happening today.
Also, we have recently been spending a lot of time on what I call the "verbal product" so everything that helps communicate our internal vision to the outside world.
Of course, building a technical product always takes a lot of work, but I guess that's kind of obvious :)
Liffery
@w_j Certainly! So whenever you have an application there is always the technical product. It is built based on (hopefully) customer needs and then requirements. The verbal product refers to how you communicate your product to different audiences. Although the technical solution is the backbone and doesn't change, depending on which audience you are addressing, you will have to talk about your product differently. You might point out different features or use different vocabulary entirely depending on who you are addressing, but your product is still the same. At Liffery we have coined this the verbal product or product(s) for that matter. Especially when starting a business you also might need to experiment to see which wording resonates best with your audience, so you would only change the verbal product, but the solution in the background stays the same.
@janine_nitz Hi Janine, could you say a few words about your verbal product? How does it work?

@vladimir_zivkovic @janine_nitz Why can't I see the upvote button Janine? Would love to support

than you @byhazellim
make sure you go on the launch page, not the product page PH won't let me link, but the URL is this:

@janine_nitz like how you coined it with a name.
I imagine it helps with team focus on that outcome.

I prioritize tasks by their impact on overall project success. This helps me allocate more time to crucial segments and delegate lesser important ones to team members.

@realvladgolub This works for me too. Allocating time based on severity and impact makes me the more productive compared to say, setting a template for time distribution. Context is key
@realvladgolub That's a good strategy!
Writing product documentation.
@thisismeihere I agree! Same here.
👍👍 add this for moment in time I say signing up for all these new amazing ai tools and dwindling the wheat from the chaff and what is it what is Need need to create an AI to keep track of? What AI u have got and how to use them to maximise your productivity lol 😂
@vladimir_zivkovic glad it made u smile , that makes it all worthwhile. Hopefully it made sense is my writing often doesn’t once it’s put down on paper or phone , enter text that’s what I meant to say LOL😝
@e_box @vladimir_zivkovic That's a great tip, I've been in the constant battle of trying not to overbuild or perfect everything
@e_box @ericka_gonzalez Every founder have that problem, so you are not alone 😁
@ericka_gonzalez @vladimir_zivkovic Many founders get stuck in this position. As much as possible, create an MVP with minimal code to just assess market demand first.
I previously had a market, but I hesitated because the technology was too complicated to work on

1. Product design
2. Competitive product research
3. Code writing
4. Test tuning
Among them, product design and code writing take more time.
@nick_ma666 This is really a brainstorming job like generating new ideas to solve a problem but not with ChatGPT takes a lot of time and energy.
And then Designing product's UI/UX and make it code take huge amounts life as well dollar.
But if you get 23000+ design access and many of coded template like your dream with reselling access and absolutely in your own platform?
Surprised?
