I have a whole strategy behind helping them get data out of their database using SQL. So that's kind of what my newsletter is about. I have a couple of users and I have my first paying customer, which is pretty exciting.

Two weeks. Okay. It just happened.

Yeah. What's interesting about this person is I got on a call with them and they... hate my UI. I don't know how else to say it, but they're like, this product isn't even very good. And I was like, oh, okay. But I do think it's interesting that this person was like, this product isn't very good. So I didn't think they were gonna convert. And then it was kind of fun. I was in the woods.

having my soul searching and I didn't have Stripe notifications set up. So it was two days later, I realized they had converted and I sent them a message and they were like, yeah, well, I needed to run more queries. I was like, awesome. But I mean, this is still the wild west, right? Like this is still, my plan is focus in on these marketing data analyst people with everything I have.

I think what I'm gonna find is Their data is in many different data sources. But try to find, you know, I'm just really, really trying to find that one pain point, like one little niche where I can just grab a foothold while simultaneously, I'm a one woman shop now, right? Because like budget is tight. So simultaneously making the product something that these people want to use. And so it's crazy.

Yeah, so the product today is, it's a chat with your database, but you ask, it's fine tuned to, you ask a question, it returns a SQL query. You can edit the SQL, which was funny because that was like a heavily requested feature, but no one actually does it. It's like, people just want to know that they can.

They want to see it. You can edit the SQL. You run the SQL. It gives you charts. It gives you tables that you can export or add to a dashboard. So the dashboard seems to be kind of an interesting thing right now. Like the marketers so far, and again, it's a very small sample size I'm working with right now. They seem to really be leaning into like, what can I do?

Like, what reports can I build with this? Right. And you also have a live shareable link. And so one of the things I've thought about is you can do triggers. You could do triggers off your database, which is actually something I'm really excited about. Like my one paying customer really wants me to do that. And, you know, I need to talk to more people, but...

I don't know, I think there's something there. I think there's possibility there. The goal is to have something, they come in, they set up and they don't have to log into Hello Query. So if you look at like product analytics tools or some other tools, even like a Google, like they send you emails once a week, like here's what you need to know. And you're like, sweet, I'm happy with that.

So that's kind of where I want to go with this.
