Hey folks,
I am the co-founder of lazyapply.com. we have managed to grab 150+ customers in the last couple of months and honestly, I have no idea how can I speedily grow to 1000 users.
Any suggestions on what should I focus on or any good resources or any story you know about other companies?
Will be happy to hear that...
