If you have been living with the idea for few weeks/months are also very passionate about it. Three four nights or weekends are sufficient to start with the sketches and wireframes.
Once you have it ready, show it to few friends, industry experts you know and iterate until you will confident to take the next plunge. Because after that there is no going back.
Give away discount coupons on sites like appsumo. But undercharging might set you back. I think pricing should be based on value pricing.
So you have crossed one of the greatest hurdles - that is launch. Rest is bit easy now.
1. You need to focus on marketing now. It starts from your site.
2. Try to get some of your friends to signup. Analyse deeply what are the actions they are doing versus what you have expected them to do.
3. Focus on that one thing which you think is the highlight of your product. Tweak it, re-tweak it until it really stands apart from all your other offerings.
4. Go to local events, try to showcase it to any crowd you can get your hands on.
5. If you have a little budget, try to do content marketing. Try educating people in your niche what are the problems they are facing. You can start doing that on your company blog or other blogs on your niche.
Be your strongest critic, and you will continuously evolve.
But surely my address book if far away for being complete. Either few are missing phone numbers, emails, or pics.
This guys does which every bootstrapped founder or a good marketer do.
You pricing needs some reworking, as I think you are undercharging.
Best of luck with bcontext.
please keep on doing such awesome work.
