Foreword 3 weeks ago I've launched Marketing No More. I was inspired by Brett's Designjoy and decided to do marketing on subscription for SaaS. Simple idea, simple price. After doing some customer development I realize that it will be too complex to provide 15+ services because products on different stages need different approaches. And I decided to niche down and start with a small simpler service — blog ghostwriting. And in this series of marketing tactics, weekly I share describe actions I do to attract customers. My global marketing strategy is simple — find a repeatable and scalable growth channel that returns $2 or more for every $1 I've put in. Week #1 Right now I am at a very starting point on a mission to get my first customer and will do a manual thing that doesn't scale — cold outreach. I've started with simple numbers for the upcoming week: • 10 Twitter DMs per day; • 10 cold emails; • 3 twitter threads per week; • 1 micro project in 2 weeks to boost traffic to the site and build an email list; Here are some numbers I got so far: • 421 users, 595 sessions(GA) • 2 newsletter issues • 263 newsletter subscribers(9 unsubscribe) • Sold 3 sponsorship posts This number I got from the launch of the first micro-project 100+ Best Marketing Threads. The next one is already a work in progress, but I'll an announcement later(will be about newsletters). That's pretty all with the plans for this week. See you in the next one 🙌

I think you'll make a lot of progress with the Twitter DMs!

Why do you not just pay to advertise?

You have an interesting promotion tactic. In general, the niche is quite competitive, so you will need to think about links. As we all know, partnership and collaboration work best for links. I would advise you to find other sites in this niche such as https://meinghostwriter.de/ and write to them for cooperation, maybe even about exchanging links.
