Go bonkers! Reach out to anyone and everyone possible via LinkedIn, PH, emails, and mutual connects.

If you really want to explore, go ahead..I see no issues with it. At eod, paid hunters have cracked the code and credits to have been seen as one because it takes time to build credibilty with constant engagement in the platform.

a) Brand Awareness b) Early adopters c) Some advocacy and d) Some connects

I can smell the competition

I agree completely. But, what I think it's easy to get events but not very much when it comes to the right events.

I am at a pre-seed stage, so for me keeping the cash burn low is vital. So, outbound reachouts via email has been my go to strategy.

I think overall I do get good support and feedback, but one thing I think will be of added value is being able to connect with individuals.

Ex-colleagues from previous companies, LinkedIn reachouts, Friends and peers, For India you can throw a mix of cold calls too. That way for initial stages the cash burn is minimal, effecting CPL and CAC in a +ve way.

I wanted to know what's going on in the world product market. So, I happily signed up :)

Accepting criticism and filtering which one makes sense on an everyday level.

I feel weekends are a boon to employees. They can recharge, relax and come back with some tenacity next Monday. If someone's doing nothing except for one thing 24*7, what are the chances that it's going to be productive. That's my perception.

Well I suppose which segment we're talking about. I do think segments such as sales and support need the human touch and customer experience itself has a major aspect of human relationship management. So, certain degrees such as human psychology and health will forever have value.

Data entry 101%

For me MP3 downloads..

Three way that I see it can be done: a) Easy way - Signup and start participating in Surveycircle and similar platforms. Free to use and works on a leaderboard and points mechanism. b) Medium way - Ask friends, connects, and peers for their feedback. Reachout to some people through cold emails and DMs too. If you have an investor ask them to spread the msg in their portfolio companies. c) Hard...

Well in my opinion through my experience in primary research it's the expectation quotient. Now, that being said it depends on the individual too. But, if it's consistent throughout an entire sub-segment of users, then it's a major boiling issue. Hope it helps!

Have a rational look at: Volume Vs Priority..If the deficit is large stick to your plan, if it's less go ahead. The bottom line is it shouldn't affect your roadmap.

Don't worry, there's a free list available in Google. But, just to be on the safer side check if the hunters hunt in your product domain.

a) What suits you better in terms of the finished product quality? b) If both ends are equally good and you are confident, take opinions and keep faith in your gut feelings.
