Which Product am I building? 🤔 I build a Notification Center, to embed in all web or mobile SaaS applications that require sending notifications to their users for better engagement. 💬💻 Why do I choose to build a Notification center Product: market, competitors, proof? 🤔💡 1. Notification Market 📈💰 The notification market value is 10B in 2022. 20% growth is expected between 2023 and 2030. Software and services are 30% of the market. 💼💸 Source: grandviewresearch.com/indust…. The market is mainly built around push notification, mobile notification center, and incentive notifications to pop up to website visitors' incentive offers. My project (still without name) focuses on a next segment: notifications to and from signed-up users only. This new segment is a risk because potentially need could not exists. I have already needed it as CTO in 2 companies, and it was clearly a pain. Product owner, UX, and dev had no easy solution. Both times we ended with poor designed and poor featured notification solution with no full preference notification system and RGPD support. I was ready to pay 100/month if I found a solution that solved this mess. 💡💰💻 There are 30,000 SaaS companies in the world. 1,500 in France (interesting to look at my country). 🌎🇫🇷 2. Competitors 🆚 All products that help with activation, retention, and referral are competitors. Lots of products here. 🤝👥 3. Proof ✔️ I was very interested to discover that LinkedIn Growth is largely based on Notification. I share the screenshot but you can read more directly in the LinkedIn SlideShare. All their growth is explained. Ask in comments if you want the SlideShare link. 📈💼👀 4. Next steps! 👉🏽🚀 Still have to define clear features, validate idea and achieve Product Market Fit!" 💪🏽💡 #NotificationCenter #SaaS #ProductMarketFit #NotificationMarket #Competitors #UserEngagement #CTO #RGPD #LinkedInGrowth #Activation #Retention #Referral #ProductDevelopment #StartupJourney 🚀 #buildinpublic

Why I’m not Prenium on X? I experimented Twitter Blue, few month ago. I liked it. But : I have to prove to myself that I’m able to grow my followers without getting an unfair paying advantage. At 200 followers, I’ll consider my goal as reached ! #buildinpublic #indiehackers

550 followers ♥️♥️♥️ Thank you so much ! 🚀🚀🚀 Next step is to ship our 2 next products - haven.markets — shipped 📦 - notifizz.com — in beta test 🔧 - tagggs.com — in development 🧑‍💻 Thanks to all of you 🔥 #buildinpublic

Without surprise, This week’s X statistics are better than last week’s. I was more active on X, and last week was so bad that I can only go up 🤣 #buildinpublic

I’m so next to 400 followers ! First THANK YOU ♥️🔥 Second, help me reach this goal i can’t wait to discover your indie hacker profiles #buildinpublic

New idea for a small free project I could build 💡 And offer to #buildinpublic community for free. 🥊 Surprise is coming. 🙀

My X account is slowly progressing. And yours? Reply with your stats and your objective! #buildinginpublic #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Share your product🔥🎉 I’ll give a detailed and honest feedback to first 10 products posted here 👋 #buildinpublic

Never forget to ask feedback to other people. If you don’t ask, you don’t obtain. #buildinpublic

Questions are never stupid. Stupidity is the consequence of not asking question. 🤣 #buildinpublic

On Friday, I pitched an entrepreneur and friend of mine from my car. He was very enthusiastic about Notifizz. Still have to plan a demo but maybe that’s a new lead 🔥 #buildinpublic

Who else among indie hackers owns a Tesla? Or would like to! I'm sure I'm not alone! #buildinpublic #tesla

Hello from paradise! 😍 #buildinpublic (holidays)

I'm delivering 3 projects in next 2 months 🔥 And that's only the beginning Let's go 🚀 #buildinpublic

En conclusion, my view : Si un homme avait donné cette conf, il aurait été applaudit pour s’être occupé de son enfant, malgré sa carrière. Cette femme est applaudit pour avoir réussie à donner une conférence et avoir une carrière, malgré son enfant. Là est l’inégalité culturelle

Meeting with a new lead today. I’m ready! #buildinpublic

If you think growing your X account from 0 to 200 followers is slow. Don’t worry, that is slow for everyone! Even VERY slow 🤣 #buildinpublic

I left X for one month. ❌ And come back. 😵 No negative impact on my next posts statistic when I come back. 📊 That’s a good news. It’s possible to take a real break. 🚀 #buildinpublic

We are building a new, free forever tag manager for indie hackers. Which feature do you need⁉️ #buildinpublic

When responding to tweets, are you always honest? For example, if a project is shared and you didn't like something, do you mention it? I do. However, it's not always easy to find the right words to explain the feeling, and it can take a lot of time. #buildinpublic

Startup success is mainly about probability. Your first project could be a success. But statistically, it’s next to impossible to create 30 projects and fail all of them. Why ? 1. Because you learn during the process 2. You finally find a real problem to solve that resonate with market. And when you find it’s far more easy to succeed. So, Keep going 🔥🔥🔥 #buildinpublic

Experience from @marclou, @levelsio, and @johnrushx demonstrates that: 1. Knowledge comes from doing. 2. Resilience guarantees success. 3. Delivering numerous projects is key to success. 4. The probability of your first project skyrocketing is very low, even the second one. #buildinpublic

Clean and minimalist indie hacker desk is not my way of working. Am I alone to need lot of papers and books and informations to work efficiently ? #buildinpublic

200 followers. 🎊 Thank you for your crazy support!! 🚀 I hope I deserve it and have been helpful enough by supporting and sharing with you. #buildinpublic

I just started a two weeks holidays. ♥️ No work. No project. My first holidays for a looooong time! See you in 2 weeks! 👋 #buildinpublic

Just found a contract from 2007. I was 16 years old and building my first company. Trying to be professional and contractualize with people working for me. Today, the contract (in French) just sound like a joke. Grammar mistakes, content and all the other stuff. 😳 But at that time it worked. That’s the most crazy ! 🤔🤯 Thank you to my college friend who sent me this back. #buildinpublic

How old are you? Indie hackers. I’m 32! #buildinpublic

Thank you to all of you ❤️ To support me in building notifizz.com 🏗️ #buildinpublic

Awesome builders !

Go back to bed to see if it works again.

Everyone is not ready to be solopreneur. I am not. I prefer to work with a team because I like management, collaboration, complementarity, shared learning and moving faster. Working alone is someday sad. I’m happy to have a team 🚀🔥♥️

There are thousands of valid reasons not to ship. However we still have to ship. Because shipping is the only way to align your project with the market and find a market fit. Product Market fit outweighs all other reasons. #buildinpublic #indiehacker

About the surprise free project we are creating for indie hackers! Its name is Tagggs. Any idea what it does? #buildinpublic

Notifizz is now a team of 3. 👏 We are still a bootstrapped product. 💪 We still have the same product vision and traction. 🥅 But clearly the vision and the market were too broad for me alone. So I had the choice to stay and do something small. Or work with a team and try to achieve a larger vision. Indie hacking should not only be about bootstrapping products alone. It’s about bootstrapping. As a team, we will stay: - Focus on delivering - Focus on doing instead of speaking - Focus on getting traction first - Focus on lead and customer satisfaction 👦@TakaashiKun0 is the first member of the team. He is an engineer like myself with strong technical skills. He also built a 200k user product in the past, targeting gamers (you can find the link in his bio). 👧@Marie_Innove is the second member of the team. She is an experienced market and sales person and will manage leads sales and inbound outbound marketing stuff. Her experience growing SAAS business is key for our success. Now we start the next step of Notifizz adventure 🚀 #buildinpublic

Waking in the dark to take my next big decisions on Notifizz. Anyone else like to go walking to take decisions? #buildinpublic

Notifizz Notification Center captured in a single screenshot. Does it provide a clear understanding of our product? #buildinpublic #indiehackers

During years - every startup was VC funded - a team of one was considered an error - bootstrapping sounded quite impossible Now, it's going fast in the opposite direction. - VC funding is seen as an error - The best way is to stay a solopreneur - Products have to be shipped in days, It's very hard to resist this kind of extreme mass trend for a first-time entrepreneur. I also recently spoke to 5 investors for Notifizz. All had very strong ideas about what I should do now. Five people, five different points of view. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐦𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐫𝐨𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬. 𝐂𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐞. Always feel free to choose our own path. #buildinpublic

Which one do you prefer? Small or big? Image at the bottom is going to be a video of the Notification center in action. #buildinpublic

The Notification center must remain compact as it can be embedded in any website This is why I can't use conventional Observable libraries, such as RxJs Instead, I have created my own Observable library 70 lines Minimum time spent on it Do the job perfectly #buildinpublic

Hi @jp_alary, Thank you for this hilight ! @FlavienNorindr and you are my most valuable followers 🔥

Working on my new project idea and thinking to use Cloudflare R2 Perfect storage tool to deliver static file in the whole world for FREE #buildinpublic

Startup project or Family stability Which one do you choose if you have to work evening and weekends ? Hard to conciliate both ? #buildinpublic #indiehackers

How I made my first product landing page ? I just created a Tally form. 2 hours spent to create from scratch my landing. #buildinpublic

There are thousands of valid reasons not to ship. However we still have to ship. Because shipping is the only way to align your project with the market and find a market fit. Product Market fit outweighs all other reasons. #buildinpublic #indiehacker

Holidays are so cool ! #buildinpublic

Working on Notifizz new notification template that integrate in the new Notification Center design. #buildinpublic

While Bootstrapping a product, Focus on lean development, guerrilla marketing, and nurturing a loyal user base are 3 key actions. 💪 Speed is the strongest assets in building a successful business. 💻 #IndieHacker #BuildInPublic

As I mentioned in my previous tweets, VC fundraising and indie hacking should not be seen as two opposite worlds. The time is going to blur distinction between them. VC are a powerful tool for success. #buildinpublic

Yesterday, with @FlavienNorindr we discussed the idea of Creating X Spaces in French or English to discuss various indie hackers topics. I’m interested to get more information around this idea : Are you interested? What time of day generally works best for you? What topics are you interested in discussing? #buildinpublic

Entrepreneurship is about focusing on one idea Whereas you have dozens of others waiting for later, or never. ♥️ #buildinpublic

Why resilience works for entrepreneurs? Not only because your learn when you fail. But also because find successful ideas is question of probability. Every time you try again, probability of success increases. #buildinpublic #indiehackers

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐨 𝐚𝐝𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐓𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐞𝐱𝐭 ? 🤯🤯 For a few weeks, some tweets include bold text. But how is it possible? ⁉️ When you tweet, you can use UTF-8 encoding to add bold characters. These are invisible UTF-8 characters to put around the text to highlight. ➡️ To achieve that easily and save time, I used to use this website: yaytext.com/bold-italic/ I hope it helps! #buildinpublic

Any advices or tips to launch on @MicroLaunchHQ ?

Super meeting with @NilGambit He is good at coaching and asking the good question. If you are thinking to start a project, but feeling unclear about how, contact him. It can help you to find you way. Thank you Nil. #buildinpublic

Still to plan it with my team, but I really hope we can open A beta of Notifizz by May ! 🔥😍 Can’t wait to see our first lead 10k final users using our notification system. 🚀 #buildinpublic

Results of my stupid experimentation are not so bad. Conversion rate is really low, so it’s quite useless, but it seems I have reach a few people. #buildinpublic

World class product, like X, Facebook, Digital Ocean, Atlassian and more have a Notification center. With Notifizz you can have the same. Which result in better user activation, retention and conversion of customers. Feel free to DM! notifizz.com #buildinpublic

𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐧𝐮𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐮𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐬! Yesterday, I shared a tweet with general advice about asking for feedback. Whether you're closing a discussion, selling your product, giving a demo, etc., asking for feedback is crucial. However, in response to that tweet, two people are now asking me for feedback. But why? That was just a thought that I shared after a meeting with @NilGambit. I’m not offering my services to provide feedback on your product. Moreover, I often propose product feedback sessions. You post your product, and I provide honest feedback. I try to do this once a month. I generally spend more than 4 hours trying to help people by answering. These 4 hours are most of the time a net worth. I just sometimes get a thank you or a like. I love this community, but there are things that are not working at all from a relational perspective. What's the point of asking for feedback from random people without even reading other responses, especially when the first response is from a tool designed to gather feedback by @mehdi_khoudali? The X #buildinpublic community seems to have too many people solely focused on themselves, trying to gain users, feedback, and followers without any authenticity. And this is not just about two people on a tweet, this is a general fact. So my message is simple: If you want to receive, start by giving. And do so in a coherent context and without waiting for something back. Learn to take pleasure in sharing. And yes, as soon as I post, some bots will like the post as always. They call these bots marketing strategies, but I call them inhumanity. They pretend to be interested in people's posts without even reading them. And I'm not saying I'm perfect. But at least my account is authentic, manually crafted, and I'm not randomly asking for feedback or pushing my project everywhere. Stop treating people as mere numbers or followers. See them as people. Just my daily thought 🤣. Yes, I probably ate lion this morning.

Any indie hacker that is trading stocks here ? #buildinpublic

Thank you for the mention @jp_alary ! Our conversations are so valuable to me.

180 followers ! Thank you ♥️♥️♥️ Just a crazy journey. Can’t wait to reach 200 ! 😇 And can’t wait to officially launch my project Notifizz. 😍 But still have some steps to complete before 😡 #buildinpublic #indiehackers

VC should not be enemies of indie hackers. They are not a goal for them either. They are just a possibility, a tool, an option that they can use to grow faster, longer, or better. Keep this option in mind. #buildinpublic

Do you ever fear as a solopreneur that you won't deliver fast enough? 😱 I do. Sometimes, I feel overwhelmed by the multitude of tasks as a solo founder. 🙁 Solopreneurship is no walk in the park. In the past, I managed a company with 80+ people, which seems easier to me now than solopreneurship. 😮 Now, I try to streamline tasks to the minimum, yet I still struggle to understand how some of you launch so quickly. 🚝 Perhaps my project isn't suited for a fast launch as a solopreneur. Too many complex elements. ⚙️ Let's keep pushing forward! 🔥 #buildinpublic

Very good demonstration. Honestly it was probably not so obvious for her and lot of people that dividing by 0 was the problem.

Future of marketing is event driven. 🚀 All modern SAAS software are rising events. They are explored for analytics. It’s time to explore them for marketing. 🕑 #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Two massively VC funded startups acting as bootstrapped ones. One founder. These two companies are : - moving fast - keeping costs minimal - focusing on building and delivering product - build their product in public on X - get idea from X community - try to get deals before to get the product working Archer aviation and FigureAI, both by @adcock_brett I strongly recommend to follow!

Which indie hacker accounts would you recommend to follow? Big or small ones, only your preferred accounts. #buildinpublic

From design perspective, rounded is better. More smooth and organic. But it also depends on the rest of home decoration of course. In all cases, like already sais by other, if not rounded, corner could hurt.

Do what others do is not enough to success. Because… Success is also a part of luck and you can’t reproduce the luck. So how to solve that ? Luck is about probability. Ship lot of projects and you’ll kill all probabilities. Luck will be inevitable.

What tools or resources do you find most valuable in your indie hacking journey? #buildinpublic #indiehackers

Who is using Open API for SEO ? How are you using it ? Is it working well ? Is it suitable for writing blog article on given keywords ? Lots of questions on my side !!! #buildinpublic #indiehackers #buildinginpublic #seo #startup

Share an underrated Indie hacker you are following. #buildinpublic ⬇️⬇️⬇️

🚧 🚨 Who is developing a tool that is integrated in your customer website with a script ? Like Plausible, Crisp, etc I'm looking for products to promote on my new project ! For free of course ! #buildinpublic
