I wrote a series of post on the problem with startup marketing that was picked up by TechCrunch. (A few months of organic traffic). The client came from reading the article, signing up to a startup marketing project I offered. I learned customers from this source speak a different way to startup founders that come in from, say, social media. I also learned that if you stick "growth" in front of services, it opens up the market a little more ;)

Through cold emails :) Our tool is made to get more replies through cold outreach campaigns on Linkedin and emails, so we used it in our own emails and sent it to a targeted list we knew are doing cold outreach today. We booked meetings this way but also had sign-ups without any meetings that converted to paid plans.

Network, network, network. And do not be afraid to ask questions and make suggestions. I'd say this has been the greatest learning out of the whole gather-first-paid-customer experience. It's probably not the easiest path to go, as ads are faster. But solid connections are the long-term investment and great pleasure to focus on. New people, new opportunities, new learnings, new ventures and journeys.

In 2003 I released a product, uploaded it to download websites, and had a dozen of customers in the first month. I won't say things were that easy back in the day but having a reasonably priced product and a good product-market fit helped a lot.

Hey! A year ago, I could not have imagined that I would start betting on sports, but recently I realized that I was very wrong, because I started betting. If you want to start too, I advise you to use the site https://parimatch.com.cy/en/ . Here you will find one of the best betting services. I hope you find this information useful.

We got our first customer at proSapient directly from my co-founder's prior book of business. First customers usually come from your network which is why it's much better to build something in an industry that you know
