Don& #39;t be scared to ask for feedback, the indie community here is awesome, make good use of it.

BUILD IN PUBLIC. This is the single most important point I cannot stress enough. It has benefitted me, it has benefitted the greatest indie hackers you admire, and...
It will help you toohttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌈" title="Regenbogen" aria-label="Emoji: Regenbogen">

Create hype around it. People will only be excited if you are.
Don& #39;t be shy of calling your product cool/great.
Trust yourself before you expect others to trust it!https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💯" title="Hundert Punkte Symbol" aria-label="Emoji: Hundert Punkte Symbol">

Ask questions. It& #39;s your first product, nobody expects you to be a pro at stuff. It& #39;s okay, and even encouraged to ask questions and learn.
But asking good questions is a must so you learn as much as possible, ASAPhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔥" title="Feuer" aria-label="Emoji: Feuer">

Don& #39;t use webforms for anything. Use twitter DMs wherever possible. It& #39;s sooo much better.
It enables two-way, continuous, and personalized conversation, better for both partieshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💖" title="Funkelndes Herz" aria-label="Emoji: Funkelndes Herz">
