Master No-Code Platform Fundamentals
Choose and complete tutorials for 2-3 leading platforms (Bubble, Webflow, Adalo). Build 3 practice apps to understand core features and limitations.
Finish Bubble's full tutorial building their sample app. Document 5 key features and 3 platform limitations you discover during the process.
Include user login, date/time selection, and automated confirmations. Test all user flows and note which features required workarounds.
Use Webflow's CMS for project cards. Practice animations and interactions. Export the code to understand Webflow's output limitations.
Include user profiles, categories, and search by name/tags. This becomes your first portfolio piece to show potential clients.
Include columns for pricing tiers, database limits, API availability, and deployment options. Use this to guide client platform selection.
Analyze Market Demand and Competitors
Research local businesses needing apps. Study 10 competitor portfolios, pricing models, and service offerings. Identify underserved niches.
Create a 5-question survey asking about current software frustrations, desired features, and budget. Use Google Forms and reach out via email or phone to local businesses.
Create a spreadsheet comparing services offered, pricing models, turnaround times, and unique selling points. Include freelancers and agencies on Upwork, Fiverr, and independent sites.
Compare your survey results with competitor offerings. Look for business types or features that are frequently requested but rarely provided by competitors.
Check Google reviews, Trustpilot, Clutch, or testimonials. Note recurring issues like communication, pricing transparency, or post-launch support to inform your strategy.
Build a visual chart showing where you'll fit in the market. Plot competitors by price vs specialization, then identify your strategic positioning based on research findings.
