Anti-Patterns

❌ Building Without Audience

Why bad: No one knows about you. Launch to crickets. No email list. No social following.

Instead: Build audience first. Share work publicly. Give away free templates. Grow email list.

❌ Too Niche or Too Broad

Why bad: "Notion template" = too vague. "Notion for left-handed fishermen" = too niche. No clear buyer. Weak positioning.

Instead: Specific but sizable market. "Notion for freelancers" "Notion for students" "Notion for small teams"

❌ No Support System

Why bad: Support requests pile up. Bad reviews. Refund requests. Stressful.

Instead: Great documentation. Video walkthrough. FAQ page. Email/​chat for premium.
