I have a hard time believing anyone promising you success, instead of going on to get it themselves. Its exactly like selling Agile; mostly people who can barely build working products in the first place, but will happily teach you how to run your projects. Its "one weird trick" all over again with different demographics.

I firmly believe you need to dogfood your own product in order to fully understand its potential. How can you solve a problem you don't understand and what better way to understand a problem than to experience it first hand?

A product can be shiny and "awesome" all it wants; if it doesn't solve an actual problem, or isn't convenient enough to solve the problem, it just wont last.
