Avoid Product-First Approach when Launching
One of the main mistakes highlighted is investing excessive time in creating a product before gauging its demand. Often, creators immerse themselves in making their product without validating its market appeal. This results in delays and potential disconnect with audience needs. Additionally, relying on waitlists or assumed interest may not accurately reflect actual purchase intent, leading to missed opportunities for course correction. Overcommitting to initial product versions can hinder adaptability for customer feedback, prompting a need for more agile development.
