A viral product does not launch without testimonials A landing page without testimonials is asking strangers to trust you blindly. Get a few users, friends, or beta testers first and collect their feedback. Collect proof before traffic. - Marc Lou

A viral product has a call to action that says what happens next "Get Started" means nothing. "Analyze My Website" tells people exactly what they're about to do. Remove uncertainty. - Marc Lou

A viral product does not have a subscription People already pay for enough subscriptions. Don't add another monthly charge unless you can’t ship without it. One-time payments are 10x easier to sell. - Marc Lou

A viral product sells a human desire, not a feature People buy more money, more time, better health, more status, or less pain. Features are just vehicles to get there. Sell the outcome, not the feature. - Marc Lou
