Was it difficult to get your first users, and how did you manage to attract them? Also, how did people around you react when you mentioned you were an entrepreneur, and how did you handle their reactions?

Yeah, getting those first users can be tough! What worked for me was finding online communities relevant to my product and sharing it there genuinely and thoughtfully, not spamming. Also tried to get some press coverage and reach out directly to people I thought would really benefit from it. It's a grind but it pays off when you start seeing those first sign-ups roll in! Just gotta get creative and keep at it.

In the beginning it was definitely a challenge to attract our first users. What worked well for us was offering an exclusive beta to a small group of our target audience to get early feedback and build some initial buzz. Actively engaging with relevant online communities and getting a few influential people in our space to try the product also helped drive those crucial first sign-ups. It takes some hustle but it's so worth it to get those first raving fans!

Nothing beats good old word-of-mouth and referrals for gaining initial traction! Make sure your product delivers real value, then reach out to your network to get those first users hooked. Incentives like discounts, perks or even just personal attention in the early days can go a long way in converting people into advocates who spread the word for you. It's a grind but super rewarding when you start seeing organic growth from happy customers!

Attracting your first users can be challenging, especially when you’re just starting. It often involves a combination of strategies, like leveraging your personal network, using social media to spread the word, and offering something unique or valuable that resonates with your target audience. In many cases, the early users are often found through word-of-mouth, personal connections, or even a small, targeted ad campaign. It's also helpful to engage directly with potential users, asking for feedback or offering incentives for early sign-ups. The key is persistence and staying active in reaching out to potential users, while continuously improving the product based on their feedback.

Getting our first users was challenging, but we focused on building trust within the local community as we are the company (https://restonpropertyrestoratio...) of pack out services USA. By offering exceptional property restoration services, utilizing word-of-mouth referrals, and building a strong online presence, we attracted our first clients. Our dedication to quality work and customer satisfaction helped us grow our user base.
