You come with the most genius idea ever and everyone will love it right?
I launched an idea this past week. I've never taken this step, due to doubts and fear. (I know, I know)
This time was different, I am very confident in what I have created and the benefits it provides. My team created a short video and spent a little money to get more eyes on it on fb and instagram.
Now I will explain how my experience went, and why it is important for anyone who is creating a product or service to understand. NOT EVERYONE WILL LOVE YOUR IDEA.
Video went up and people started to comment. As I read the comments, oh man not going to lie, the doubts came back again. I had people telling me the product sucks, its not needed, and some even used extreme profanity. I've never meant to offend anyone, but by reading the comments you'd think I insulted their ancestors. It was a very new and very real experience.
Its only a few days in, but let me tell ya, you cannot doubt yourself or your product. If you do, it's game over. Yeah it sucked reading those comments, but I also have had a lot of great comments and great compliments. I learned that not everyone will love your product, but at the same time , not everyone will hate your product. My kickstarter is almost 70% funded with 3 and half weeks to go.
If you're planning on launching a new idea or product, believe in yourself. Don't let a few words from different people deter you away from your goals and dreams. There will be harsh remarks, insults, and profanity. So prepare now. Understand that it will come. Never lose confidence in yourself. Finally, just go and prove them wrong.
