About

I run Idea TBD - a newsletter for founders and people who’ve got too many ideas and not enough time. We give out free product ideas, share public experiments, and document the messy stuff no one tweets about. Here to learn, share, and build weird things with cool people.

Founders & builders - how should you think about user acquisition from day one?

I work with a lot of early-stage startups as a PM, and one pattern I see (especially with first-time solo founders) is the build it and they will come mindset. They go all-in on product, then expect a flood of users the moment they go live, only to realize it doesn t work that way.
Curious to hear from folks who ve been through it:

Any playbooks, mental models, or hard lessons worth sharing?

🎉 1 month since launch - 700+ users turned their ideas into comics with Lifetoon!

Hey everyone!

Just a month ago, we were nervously prepping for Lifetoon s MVP launch here on Product Hunt. Now, over 700 users have jumped in and turned their ideas into comics, and we re incredibly grateful for all the support and love from this community. Thank you!

We ve been building Idea TBD in public - a weekly drop where we share raw product ideas, highlight early-stage tools, and experiment with building a community around curiosity and creativity.

It s scrappy. It s messy. It s ours.
