Where do you go to get those early users for feedback on a new idea you're launching?
Other than talking about it on ProductHunt of course! Where do you go? Or if you don't - why don't you?

There are several ways to get early users for feedback on a new idea you're launching:
- Reach out to your personal network, including friends, family, and colleagues, to see if they would be interested in trying out your product or service.
- Join online communities and forums related to your industry or niche to connect with potential users and get feedback on your idea.
- Attend networking events and meetups to connect with other entrepreneurs and potential users.
- Use social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, to promote your idea and gather feedback from early adopters.
- Participate in startup accelerator or incubator programs to get access to a network of early adopters, mentors, and other resources that can help you develop and launch your idea.
- Use paid advertising to target early adopters and gather feedback on your idea.
Ultimately, the key is to be creative and persistent in your efforts to find and connect with early users, and to be open to feedback and willing to adjust your idea as needed.

@wasay_waqas Awesome! I absolutely agree with the persistence. Sometimes it takes seeing something a few times before finally making the click! I guess the whole purpose of the term "remarketing". Thanks for sharing!
@benjamin_katz2 Thanks for sharing! What slack communities to you recommend joining? And are you able to shoot an invite?
@barneelloyd I've used Lenny's newsletter slack community and the reforge slack community. Unfortunately they are both paid communities so I can't share the invites :/
@benjamin_katz2 Great suggestions Ben! Would love to know what strategies you put in place before using these communities effectively also. By the way we're launching real soon this week also, an AI tool that helps 10x the process of gaining insights from customer interviews and build better products, you can support and join the user waitlist here: (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...). Thanks!
@babatunde_adedoyin seems like we're working on similar projects right now -- I'm working on https://www.userinsights.ai/ :)
That’s a good question. You have to use the channels you users use to get information. Maybe is word of mouth and friends, maybe is a social media ad. Maybe you can start a community led group and get ppl to use your solution. It’s a broad concept and it will be all putting yourself on your users/customers shoes .
Well at the moment is launching real soon and we're building the users waitlist organically here on product hunt and slack communities too :)
It'd be great to have you support and join the waitlist too here at: (https://www.producthunt.com/prod...). Thanks!
The ProductHunt discussion area is a good complement to a product hunt launch. You can ask, here some questions to validate your assumptions.
Indie hacker also works well.
