Launched website & first product. Feedback, please!

Hello there,

First time posting here, so I'm just trying it out.

I have decided to leave the investment firm I work for. I always wanted to create my own business. My rules, my pace, developing (business) skills along the way.

So I did.

I wasn’t exactly sure what I wanted to do or any product that I could make.

My first idea was to at least start writing about what I know. So I created a website where I write about topics like investing, technology and life in general: www.decryptom.com

Recently some of my friends asked if I could help them start investing. I explained that they first needed an overview of their financial situation.

I have been using Notion for over two years, and do almost everything with it. So, I decided to make a financial template for them in Notion.

When working on it, I figured I could add in something extra. A way to calculate how much money and time they would need to become financially free. In other words, allowing one to live off of their investments (retire from work).

They loved it! What they appreciated the most was understanding WHY they should invest. Freedom from work. Not having to work to pay your expenses.

Knowing this, was the best motivation they could get, to start investing as soon as possible.

They urged me to put the financial template on my website for others to use. My first product! I had never thought about selling Notion templates, but here we are.

I didn't have an audience to share it with yet, so I was hoping to find some people on here who are willing to help me out. Maybe give some feedback, tips or just encouragement on my website or product.

And just in general: where to go from here?

P.S. the template is already in an early adopter sale, hoping to attract some people who want to try it out and give feedback. If (you think) this is still too much, I'd be happy to give more discount(free), in exchange for feedback etc.

Any help would be much appreciated!
