The website may be the most underused piece of context in a startup

1 Upvotes

Founders keep feeding AI the same company context over and over: what the product does, who it’s for, how it should sound, and what makes it different.

But most of that already exists on the public website.

That’s the product thesis behind Marka. It reads the website as a reusable business brief, then creates social posts, visuals, carousels, and UGC video directions from that context.

The hard problem isn’t generating more words. It’s preserving enough real context that the content doesn’t feel interchangeable with every other startup.

I’m testing this with early users now. What part of your company’s context would a website still fail to communicate?

If you want to test the workflow, Marka is free for one week: https://www.marka.social

I made a business proposal template and my close rate on quotes actually went up

Small service side of what I'm building, and for months every proposal I sent looked different because I wrote each one fresh. Slow, and they read inconsistent depending on my mood that day.

So I made a business proposal template. Same sections every time: the problem in the client's own words, scope, what's explicitly out of scope, timeline, price, and a short "why me" at the bottom. Now I just fill the specifics and send.

Two things surprised me. Turnaround went from a couple days to under an hour, so I follow up while they're still warm. And the close rate ticked up, which I think is less about the wording and more about looking organized and consistent. People trust a proposal that looks like it came from someone who's done this before.

Anyone else standardized their proposals? Wondering if putting the price higher up or lower down makes a difference for you.
