@nicolaas_spijker awesome, thanks for sharing!
@nicolaas_spijker great answer, do you have any suggestion community name for us to join?

@slimmy82 @istiakahmad Reddit: - r/Entrepreneur - r/alphaandbetausers - r/EntrepreneurRideAlong - r/AItoolsCatalog (if you work with AI stuff) - More niche subreddits work quite well too for ealy-on activities. Will depend on your value prop. Slack: - CRO growth Hacks - PLG - Demandcurve - Online Geniuses - Growth Marketing Pros (The Slack groups are all free to join, a quick Google search should get you in)
@nicolaas_spijker exactly where I got my 40. Mainly Reddit

Network on LinkedIn and ProductHunt worked for me. Other options are, - Friends and colleagues - Early adopter communities on reddit, slack etc - Startup listing directories

Connect with potential users in Twitter and Linkedin, if your tools is alternative to existing popular one, try to search for it.

Messaging members of a specific reddit community to come to our product and try it out. In our case, since we are building a meme app. I asked them: Yoo, funny meme you posted there Wanna come and try out a new meme app we built? Conversion rate was between 5% to 10% depending on the message. What I found out was that it is really important to sound human and to use everyday language.

@mihajlokovacevic This makes a lot of sense. Nobody wants to speak to a sales bot, after all.

Not for first 100,but for first 10 or 20 users, we'll be using cold emails. We are currently listing down our target clients and from there we will pitch them to try our product. You can call it a free beta version
