How many accounts can a tiny team actually keep supplied?
I’ll plan one week of actual posts before expanding. The account count was becoming a vanity metric in the planning doc.

Useful little software. Distribution is the less familiar part.

How many accounts can a tiny team actually keep supplied?
I can imagine the account network. I’m less sure about the weekly supply of approved, distinct content. I don’t want to scale the empty containers first.

We shipped the feature and have exactly one announcement post
I’ll use those as separate briefs. The announcement can stay short instead of trying to contain every use case.

There are several useful tasks behind the feature, but the content plan stopped at “it’s live.” I want a small library that keeps explaining why anyone would use it.

The marketplace visitor lands on our generic homepage and loses the plot
I’ll make a task-specific entry link. The biggest fix is probably after signup, where we currently drop everyone in the same place.

They came from a specific integration listing. The destination doesn’t mention the integration or the task. I’d like the first screen to continue that conversation.

The free checker gets used. The paid product feels like a different conversation.
I’ll separate those two paths. A single CTA was pretending every checker visitor had the same job.

The tool gives a snapshot, then the CTA suddenly asks people to buy an account workflow. I want a connection that makes sense for the person’s next task.

Would you show the output before asking for an account?
A static worked example would already help. I don’t need to give away a paid generation to explain the format.

My tool hides every example behind signup. I can’t tell whether people aren’t interested or just don’t understand what they’ll get. The demo page is mostly a promise.
