You may be right... but there are a couple problems with that statement:
1) "Decent" isn't good enough. Aim higher.
2) You aren't going to deliver the best product to your audience if you go in defensively insisting that your product is fine. Listen to what people say, and be willing to build the product they want, not the one you think is best.
So my problem here is: do you offer anything unique? As a potential customer, I see you smashing together tons of third party services, and I could do that myself without paying you a dime. So, what’s the benefit? I don’t think you have a great product here, it feels like reselling.
I also clicked on signup, but then didn't. Here is why: I wanted to sign up to test the product, but after clicking on signup I get a Typeform modal. Typeform as a signup form makes me suspicious that the product doesn't really exists, and the startup is doing some sort of landing page -> signup validation. You also ask that I enter my credit card and you want to charge me 10$ upfront, without having established any…
Thanks, Makes sense. Before we were asking $348 ;-) but then our program was that we'd giveaway shares for the first 100 people. The whole thought process behind that was, We are a small team of hustlers wanting to build the best experience for freelancers to work with their clients. Soon in our journey, we realized building a startup is a lot of work, and it’s hard to focus on multiple areas. This is why we’ve launc…

I love this story because it is a new angle from the usual drunk looking for his car keys under the street lamp.
The first version of it I ever saw was in a Baby Huey comic book in about 1967, a single page comic, and it struck my infant self as wise and unusually funny. I wonder how old the joke is.

update: don't let the data discourage you, though. it's actually not bad. 400/600 clicked signed up? that's fantastic! only 40 people went through with the sign up? I would say thats just user churn because of bad onboarding. the first thing I would do is let people sign up with just email and password, and actually let them use your product, for a free trial period. the second thing I would focus on is getting your…

Noted, we are working on this as we speak. Here is a quick video (raw) if you are intrigued https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7wAeenBe-c
Do not, not, not autoplay the video (as the site currently does). Especially not with sound enabled. That will get the site closed with prejudice by many people, and upset most of the rest. Especially when they can’t even see the video because it’s below the fold. For user engagement, having a video available is good, but playing it contrary to user expectations is really bad.
How much did you pay for those 600 people and were they targeted long-tail searches from google (ndas for freelancers) or random visitors? Usually the conversion rate for visitor to payed customer is 0.1-1%, depending on your product, that's normal.
If you've got a leaky funnel: 1. Identify the steps of your funnel 2. Per each part of the funnel, understand how many people enter, how many people pass through it and how many people leave. 3. Work on the parts of your funnel where people leave.
It's really hard to tell if this product is any good: - There is no way to try out the product before actually buying it. - There are no examples of existing profiles to check out.
Working on this, thanks. Here is a quick raw video btw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7wAeenBe-c here is a quick demo profile btw https://bighead.sievehq.com/
