Early AI SaaS loses traffic after one X reply tactic stops
This is a early-stage operator case. An SaaS launched in early February but did not get enough traction at first. TikTok and Reels brought about 30 to 40 visitors per day, but the work was tiring and did not grow as much as expected.
Posting useful replies with the service link under relevant X posts brought much bigger traffic, reaching about 300 visitors per day and averaging around 200 visitors for several days. During that stretch, the service got about 30 signups per day and 10 paying users. The problem was that the tactic only worked when the operator found a relevant X post very early, before it became popular, and left a strong comment.
After mostly stopping that work for the past two months, daily traffic fell to around 10 visitors. The core issue is that the product has its s, but it does not yet have a repeatable way to bring in more customers.
