There are many client acquisition techniques (inbound, outbound, paid, referrals etc).
Curious to hear about real-world stories.
For buska, the first customer we got was through post content on LinkedIn

my first customer was my friend. Thanks to ukwritings.com/assignment-service we have awesome texts for all our campaigns but of course quality of the services is what makes our clients stay. You can't do much without that
@gill_richardson that surely helps !
But then the question is, did they churn or did you manage to keep them on ?
We used LinkedIn to find leads and reach out to potential customers in our target market. Built genuine relationships first, then offered personalized demos to show how our product could help their specific use case. Took time and persistence but it paid off when we landed that first customer! Social media outreach and real conversations were key for us.
For me, the first customer came through a well-targeted ad campaign. It was a bit of a gamble, but it helped me get that crucial initial traction.
My first customer came from Tiktok.
Posted a answer on Quora and a user reached out. That's how I made the first sale for my product.
We got our first customer by actively reaching out to our network, sharing our product’s value proposition, and offering a personalised demo to show how it solves their specific problem.
@nitesh_jamod great playbook !
And determination, love it !
Thanks for sharing
Through upwork!
I used a combination of inbound marketing and content creation to attract my first customer.
Not including myself, our first customer was (and still is) a lawyer who we consulted while creating terms of service and privacy policy for our app. It was super inspiring to have someone so interested in our project from the beginning, while not even actively pursuing to recruit him as a customer.
Reaching out on Linkedin!
I offered free trials to my network, and one of my friends referred me to a business that became my first paying customer.
@isabel_gray that’s very smart 🙏🏻 thanks for sharing and congrats
My first customer came from a Facebook group where I was active. Just shared some helpful insights, and someone reached out asking about my product!
Posted a demo on Reddit and a user reached out wanting to try it. That turned into my first sale.
@florence_fleming oh how nice.
How did you do not to get banned ? Which subreddit did you post on ? (Cause Reddit is great but every time someone mentions their product they get hammered 😅
