We had to pivot and it sucks
We had to pivot our product at ductllc.com after receiving constant feedback from advisors and our users that we should focus on what was working and get rid of the other features that was more non-sense.
It kind of sucks after putting all that development effort into the other features but I am starting to warm up to the idea.
Wondering if anyone else had to go through the same? Well, that's sort of the name of the game with startups. It also speaks to though that perhaps getting new feature in front of your users sooner should be a goal. For instance, you can quickly make mockups with something like InvisionApp.com and then throw those in front of some users for feedback. If it's not working you can shelf it. That way you don't spend development efforts on features that your users don't find useful. Just a heads up that your submissions read like ads for your companies (Duct and Pital). They might better be placed in/part of the "show" feature of HN. This wasn't for that purpose. But the other ones were so thank you very much! Thats helpful. Did not know that was a thing.
