Angles

You can build a product that does everything for everyone. But then it will be a product that does nothing for no one.

The simplest way to make sure your product matters, and can stand out in a crowded market, is to make it for someone.

Someone very specific - 1 ideal user.

To make sure it’s for someone very specific, you have to introduce angles in your product based on what the ideal user cares about.

So SimpleAnalytics is an analytics solution.

But..

It’s for a user who cares about the privacy of their users, and simplicity of use.

2 angles - Privacy and Simplicity

As Adriaan (the founder) mentions here, the angles came from what he himself deeply cared about.

So you can definitely build something for yourself. But to grow, you just need to make sure that there are enough other people in the world who care about what you care about.
