    We’re launching a btob app, called WeTransform, aimed at developers and CTOs, as well as data analysts /finance. It is a file import tool that also transforms data. We have tried Google ads with moderate success. Apart from Product Hunt, what other channel has worked for you to bring initial customers? Thanks a lot PH community πŸ™πŸ»

    I still think there's no better distribution channel than SEO itself! Optimize your website with long tail keywords relevant to your industry, and you will not only see traffic on your site but also genuine inbound leads.

    I don't recommend Google Ads for small new startups as it can end up taking a lot of your marketing budget, without the desirable outcome. Instead, I'd suggest submitting your platform to popular high-traffic directories where they're either free or have a one-time payment. Plus they'll mostly also provide a backlink, which can be helpful in increasing your domain authority. You can find some of the popular ones here: https://webcurate.co/c/directory

    Have you considered leveraging LinkedIn to showcase WeTransform to the tech-savvy audience of developers and CTOs? It's like networking at a coding conference, but without the awkward small talk!

    @thestarkster I was under the impression that LinkedIn does not have such a big developer audience. No?

    We've had great success with LinkedIn ads targeting specific job titles in our B2B SaaS space. It's been a great way to reach decision-makers directly and drive qualified leads. Best of luck with WeTransform!

    @stephane_jauffret It brought us a lot of traffic on the website which is a first good step, if your website is well structured you should be able to retain them. LinkedIn ads is not that expensive we achieved a Cpc of around 2$ while it was a really small audience
