Totally agree with the article, me too info products and repackaged / resold ideas are frustrating bullshit. Product hunt is full of ‘makers’ compiling lists of resources and reselling them.<p>But back to his original concern, his Saas ‘business’.<p>A tweet composer...<p>Take a free feature of the original FREE product. And sell...<p>And it’s not even the first, or remotely original. There are 100s possibly 1000s of tools for writing and scheduling tweets, many of them free.<p>I hate to sound like a negative Nancy, but WTF other outcome is expected when building a me too product in a me too market.<p>I’m seriously struggling to believe that during customer development the overwhelming feedback was “the biggest pain point in my life is writing and scheduling tweets and I would pay $$$ to solve it but I don’t want to use buffer, hoot suite, etc, etc, etc....”
I live from an info product. So does a big part of the publishing industry. I learned to do something (move to Germany) and I now help others do the same. I thought of doing the same about motorcycle travel but it's not really that difficult.<p>Am I missing something?
