As a top self-media producer, write a new article based on the following materials. The article format is markdown format, and the material content is as follows:
The 79th issue of Independent Development Monetization Weekly, a product page flow inspiration website costs 4.5k per month, sharing content related to independent development product realization is published every Friday, I am remy cofish, I run a small company called patch froze, this is a warehouse of inspiration videos for product designers online, customers pay for access, I've been running this business for a few years, making about $4500 a month, how did you come up with the idea, I studied accounting and information systems in college, but when I graduated I realized I didn't want to be an accountant or work in information systems, and for a few years I worked various jobs, trying to use wordpress After co-founding and co-founding a failed consumer startup, I started my own web development journey, and throughout my career I built side projects to sharpen my skills and move toward starting a business. As my career progresses, one of my projects is a newsletter called ui movement, which is a design inspiration newsletter. This is my most successful side project to date. After launching on the product, it quickly gained thousands of subscribers. If you are an independent founder, I also strongly recommend that you join a community group. I and two other The founders participated in conference calls every Monday. It was a great help to have a group of like-minded people to communicate with. After about a year, I was ready to start doing something new. I wanted to create a way to charge customers directly. products or services, I have established phone contact with some ui movement subscribers, to understand why they signed up, what value they got from the newsletter, and whether I was able to create content that they would be willing to pay for. Thankfully, there were some useful insights that came out of that, and one theme that kept coming up was that people like Desirable UI design inspiration, but more intuitive design inspiration would be more helpful, this is when the idea of page fs was born, he will become a video library of popular products, when designers are stuck in design problems, they will use page flows to See how other companies are solving these problems, I didn't do any validation other than initial conversations with ui moon subscribers, my approach was to release quickly and then see how the market reacted, and if people weren't interested, I gave up on prototyping and manufacturing the first product. process, I built the page flow using dango html css and jquery, it was a super simple setup, recording the user streaming video is the time consuming and tedious part, I use an app called mono snap on my macbook Record web based products, for ios apps, I connected my iPhone to my MacBook and used quick time to record the screen. After recording the videos, I uploaded them to the website and then annotated and screenshotted them using a simple tool I made. The website only had about 100 in the beginning. Videos, now over 1000 in total, my process for recording and adding videos has not changed, except for a few minor tweaks. I briefly outsourced the video recording and annotation, but quickly discovered that without a good documented process, This doesn't work, I used strip to handle payments and set the price at $14 a month, I figured no one would pay that much, but the general advice at the time was to go a little higher than you thought the product was worth, overall the site The cap took about a month to describe the process of launching the business, initially I started by promoting the website on ui moon subscription to make it visible to potential customers, besides that, my launch plan was to make the page fall in the product Recommended online, Product Hunt’s posts are quite good in terms of good reviews and traffic. But none of these converted into customers, it was a failure and after a few weeks when there was only one paying customer I decided it was time to leave, I refunded the customer and made all the user flow videos free for anyone to access, About 1 year later I noticed that the video from Google Analytics was getting a fair amount of traffic, nothing special but enough to show that people were interested, I wanted to try my luck and reintroduce paid, this time I would charge a small amount A one time fee, instead of a monthly subscription, I used a fake payment form, Quickly created a login page and waited to see if people would try to pay, to my surprise a few people did, that was the proof I needed, I created a proper payment form using stripe, re Started adding user flow videos to the site, if I hadn't given up on page flow so quickly I probably would have achieved profitability much quicker, effectively attracted and retained customers, ui movement has been a key driver of traffic from the start , for such similar users, It makes sense to promote page flows there, multiple launches also help, product hunt has launched various iterative versions of page flows, each time it has brought a good traffic boost and been updated in the design community and blogs To mention more, in addition to that, the CEO is gradually becoming more important, people are discovering page flows by searching for very specific ones, but more well-known brands, especially well-designed brands, tend to bring more traffic, For example, slack, drug, box, spotify, etc., all these long-tail keyword searches added together, I didn’t think too much about cal at first, but now I’ve decided that the next step will be to research which products may bring traffic. Have you learned anything particularly useful? Ranking for long-tail keywords in Google is important for pages. Very valuable for traffic, it's a strategy that takes time, but if your business involves creating content, it's totally worth researching which long-tail keywords are relevant, high-intent, and easy to rank for, in terms of pricing models. I also learned that one-time pricing is easier to sell than subscription pricing, as opposed to a five-dollar-a-month product. People are more willing to take a risk on a $29 product. Even if you want to build a long-term subscription business, it is easier to start with a one-time price. Any advice for other entrepreneurs who are just starting out? My biggest realization recently is to carefully It is important to consider what advice you should follow, we all have different goals so just focus on your goals, consistent advice is important, for example if you want to build a lifestyle company, follow VC Startups to Support, Founders’ Advice May Lead You astray, Having said that, the advice I always need to remind myself of is to start small and finish quickly, but too many of us make the mistake of spending months working on a product before getting it in front of users , if you are a solo founder, I also highly recommend that you join a group, two other founders and I call every Monday to discuss what we are doing, what we plan to do, and what help we need, to have a group of like-minded people It helped me a lot, The advice I always need to remind myself is to start small, finish following quickly, and get the latest push. Likes are my motivation for continuous updates. They are all questions, and everything I do is the answer. Stand still and you will always be an audience. The end of this weekly , see you next week,
