The gold nugget here is: your number one job as the business owner is: find new customers. Forget everything else. You must find ways how to talk to them, get them to trust you and tell you about their problems.

Forget scaling, google ads, until your customer #10, probably more. All your early customers will be from your network, real people you talk to in real world.

It is a chicken and egg problem - you don’t know what product customers need until you have customers. So go find them, build and try to figure out what they have in common.
