Still in search of my 100 paying customers. Share your story of how you found them? I'm sure it will be helpful to many.

I’m doing videos in YT, TikTok and Instagram, and written posts on Li, Twitter, Reddit and PH discussions. Haven’t got my first 100 users yep, but I’m sure that in time I’ll get there - I’m hoping to reach this milestone by the end of the year

@claudiu_cogalniceanu Cool! By the way, what are YT and Li? For some reason I don't know

@erkin_bek Sorry, I was talking about YouTube and LinkedIn

Linkedin outreach. We offered a beta price and got 50 users like that. For a month, we talked with them, improved and launched officially, and continued doing LinkedIn outreach!

@relja_denic Cool experience, do you directly email the people at Linkedin?

Thanks to advertising.

@ixord Cool! What kind of advertising do you mean

Direct email reach out worked pretty well for us! It's a small conversion rate but doesn't take much to do so it works!

@stoicbasil Cool! So we're gonna have to go for quantity there, too.

@rhexai Cool! I hope clients come to you on their own

Direct email contact was effective for us. Despite the low conversion rate, it is effective because it requires little effort.

@lee_j_long Cool! A lot of people are doing it, so we should probably try it. But the eternal question is where to find them, where to get the contacts from.
