Built a solid tool. Can't figure out how to get it in front of people.
I'm a solo dev , and been building a tool named LogicFrame which I describe as a connected workspace for freelancers to manage clients , proposals, invoicing, payment chasing, and expenses in one place.
And to be honest I think I've solved a bunch of highly requested problems for freelnacers . The problem isn't the product. It's that I have no idea how to actually get it in front of the right people
So far I've tried:
- Writing blog posts on my own site ( To get domain authority)
- Posting on LinkedIn ( The posts are getting few hunders impression but not leading to any sign ups)
- Submitting to a few directories ( Very few upvotes)
- Posted on related Facebook pages ( My post gets burried under other generic ones where people are offering thier freelance services )
None of it really moved the needle. Reach has been the real issue, not conversion, people just aren't seeing it in the first place
I'm now trying to be more active in communities , mostly replying to real threads instead of just posting . I know I'm probably still missing something obvious.
If you've been through this stage, what actually worked for you? What would you do differently if you were starting distribution again from scratch?
The fact that you’ve already tested several channels and are now seeing community conversations as a different path makes this more interesting. You’re not just looking for “more reach”; you’re figuring out where the product actually belongs.
That's a good way to put it actually, I hadn't fully thought of it that way. I think I spent too long assuming the answer was just 'do more of the same thing, louder.' Realizing it's actually about where the product fits, not just how much noise I make, has been the bigger shift honestly. Still figuring out where that is exactly, but community conversations feel closer to it than anything else I've tried so far.
That shift is interesting. You seem to be getting closer to the actual fit — would you be open to sharing the best email to reach you on?
