Founders: Stop building features. I’ve seen too many startups fizzle out because they spent all their money trying to match features with competitors instead of marketing what they had and getting customers.   So rather than trying to keep up with your competitors focus on building the features that are most important for your niche market.   You don’t need to have all the bells and whistles as long as you have the stuff that really matters for your target customers.   It’s better to have a product that is the best at one thing Than to have a product that’s average at multiple things. #saas #founders #featureparitytrap

Day 1: Monday – Introduction to the Focused Niche Strategy Startups often struggle when they try to serve everyone—and end up connecting with no one. That’s why a focused niche strategy is so powerful. 🎯 Instead of chasing every potential customer, you zero in on one specific group, solving their unique pain points better than anyone else. A focused niche strategy helps startups build traction quickly, win loyalty, and create a foundation for future growth. Want to dig deeper into strategies like this?

Learning from your initial users/customers and implementing those learnings in your strategies is a big plus for early-stage startups. I'm sharing one such story today. At Floik, we tried hard to get on call with our customers and sell them a custom plan based on their needs. Our product pricing plan was broken for high-tier plans leading to Hubspot form and eventually forcing our users to book a call. (The aim was to understand the users and build a plan accordingly) And we were astonished when multiple customers refused to call and asked for a payment link. The same process; repeated 3 times. We regrouped, standardized our SOP, and fixed what was broken. We stopped asking for calls on day 1. The result; Conversion in just 2 hours. ;) #saas #plg #startupgrowth
