How to get the first 100 customers without a budget (not a lecture)

How to get the first 100 customers without a budget (not a lecture)

Mon, Nov 16, 1:00 AM
From Counter Intelligence

Going from 0 to 1 is less about theory and more about interpersonal emotional stuff. Its a hard journey that logic has little to do with it. Logic & stretegy kicks in when it's time to scale, when it's time to build systems. In the beginning; it's alot more messy and hella more confusing. Here is where this one might help, not just with how to get the first 100 customers but what gets unstuck. The tiny stuff. It might be easier to see from the outside, while still being difficult to pinpoint or talk about. This is not a strategy meetup, nor a lecture. We talk stuff that can be implemented right away. Please no freelancers or service providers, you won't be treated kindly here. This is designed for Saas or Ai products only.
