Honestly I don't know why you even need a marketing site like this if you are just working on your MVP. I am working on my MVP and am just collecting emails and working directly with potential customers.


Spending a day on a brochure site gets you out there immediately. Combine it with a $50 adwords budget and you've got 2 things:

1. A concept web site to help explain what problem you solve 2. A source of leads to early adopters. Potentially invaluable.


You don't need wordpress or any cookie cutter themes to do that. Here is my page: http://adzerk.com - it cost me about $75 with my designer (although the logo design was more).

And when it comes to feedback, the handful of customer I have talked to in person (you know the customer development part) has helped me 1000% more than the hundreds of emails collected here. (most of which will never respond to your email when you send it out).


Maybe. I should go into design. Does a paragraph of text a text box and a button really go for $75?


If you think that is bad imagine how much Nike paid for just three words. (just do it)

Volume is a poor measurement of effort and value when it comes to design (and coding for that matter).
