This is it: Ep6 of the Build and Launch podcast - Justin announces the Product Hunt Handbook

EP6: This is it

Whoo. This is it. This is the day I announce the first product I’ll be working on for Build & Launch. I wanted to start really small: I think the mistake most people make when they’re building their first thing, is they choose something way too big.

Product announcement

The first official Build & Launch product is… The Product Hunt Handbook.

The only way to truly validate an idea is seeing if people will pay money for it.

There’s two important things you need to cover when building anything:

  1. Who is this for? What specific type of person am I targeting?
  2. What’s their pain? Why would the hire this product? What’s going to convince them to take out their wallets, and buy?

New show format!

Initially, was going to do a 30 min episode a week, but people are loving these smaller 10-15 minute episodes.

Here’s what I’m going to try out: I’ll do 3 mini-episodes a week:

  1. Start project + previous week’s stats
  2. Mid-week checkup
  3. Launch day!
