How do you recruit beta testers?

TL;DR: we're building a product to help remote teams make decisions faster and I would love your help on how to recruit beta testers. - Hey, I'm Cl ment and I work full-time at a B2B SaaS co that's been around 5 years and done well. For a number of reasons, we recently decided to pivot. It's exciting and scary. We originally wanted to build the best knowledge base tool in the world. We've hit Product Market Fit, even while competing with big guys Confluence & Notion. We've grown steadily. We have net negative churn. 90% of revenue comes from organic (word-of-mouth, SEO, product-led). A few thousand teams sign up every month. But we want do better. We want to anticipate and solve the problems that our market faces. This brings me to ask for advice. We're developing a unique product for a small, growing, market we love: async-first teams. We bet that while the pandemic forced a lot of companies into remote, we can all learn from the companies that operate with a remote-first mindest. That means fewer meetings, and less time online overall. More time on deep work, and on living your life. The first piece of the puzzle is faster decision-making. So here's where the company's at now: - We are now 100% focused on creating the best communication tool out there - We are working with beta partners to improve our new release: Discussions, a tool for making decisions and resolving problems in the flow of work. Our success will massively rely on growing our beta waitlist. We hope this will lead to a big public launch of the new version. We're looking to recruit teams of 10+ employees for our (free) beta, that are ideally software/service companies. Geography doesn't really matter since they should be async-first. These are some initiatives we focus on to grow our waitlist: - Recruit teams within our existing users - Invest a lot in content and distribution we believe unique insights about remote will help us establish our position - Launch awareness campaigns on social (product tours, screenshots, call for beta testers) - Reach out to a selected list of "top remote companies" to ask for feedback - Reach out to "remote influencers" to get visibility on podcast, blog posts, etc. ** Do any of you have experience building waitlists? Out of curiosity, is anyone here interested in giving feedback about the product?** Thanks and looking forward to discussing it with you. - Cl ment

What would you do to land your dream job? [your procedure or advice]

Getting a job is becoming increasingly difficult many applicants (high competition), automation and the replacement of tasks with artificial intelligence...

Now it's a miracle if someone opens your email.

What habits have helped you to be more productive?

I'm looking for a few more habits to add to my routine to help me stay productive. I currently gym and meditate every day to help keep my head clear, and read most days to expand my knowledge. I'm always interested to hear about other routines or habits :D

What is everyone else doing?

I raised prices by 40% and lost zero customers, here's the exact email I sent

I'd been putting this off for eight months. Every time I opened the pricing page I closed it again. Last month I finally did it 40% across all plans, grandfathered existing users for 60 days, and sent a plain-text email to 312 customers.

Zero churned. Three replied thanking me. One asked why I hadn't done it sooner.

The email wasn't clever. It was four paragraphs: what's changing, when, why (I was honest support load had tripled), and what stays the same. No "exciting news" language, no discount code to soften it.

I'm posting because I see a lot of "should I raise prices" threads and almost no "here's what actually happened" threads. So: what actually happened, with numbers.

How to Use AI to Make Movies Better (Hint: It’s Not by Replacing Creatives)

I've been making short films for as long as I can remember. 

My first short was back in middle school, where my brother and I pretended we were in Star Wars, dueling with dowel rod lightsabers. By the time I met my co-founders, Spencer and Charlie, in college, my storytelling had (I hope) evolved well past my VFX-obsessed origin story.

We met on the set of a feel-good student short I directed last fall. But this wasn t backyard filmmaking anymore. We quickly got stuck in a hellish landscape of spreadsheets. Nobody s availability lined up, everyone was overwhelmed, and it took forever to finish the film.

What work would you never delegate to an AI agent?

AI is becoming better and better. For writing, coding, and research, doing everything manually already feels like wasted time.

But some work still needs a real person to take responsibility. Lawyers, accountants, and anyone who must review and sign documents for institutions. AI can prepare the work. Someone still has to stand behind it.

Do you attend any workshops or pay for courses that are related to your business?

Every now and then, I treat myself to a workshop to learn something. (Officially, I do it because I work from home and sometimes the lack of socialising makes me sick.) :D

Today I'm going to an art-related workshop. It's a bit outside my field, but on the other hand, marketing also uses creative (I wonder if it will give me something relevant).

What are your biggest struggles/fears when you want to launch a product?

A few days ago, we discussed how difficult it was for me, for example, to create my first product.

In many cases, people struggle with money. But I believe that with the mass adoption of AI, many things can now be done at a relatively low cost.
