Network on LinkedIn and ProductHunt worked for me.
Other options are,

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.
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
