Wanna grab a tasty beverage and talk startupish nerdery? First round is on me. :) Hackers/Founders meetups are laid-back affairs. We find a quiet watering hole, hang out and chat about whatever we're working on. It's a great way to get out of a bubble and cross-pollinate because the people who attend are routinely awesome. Last meetup we talked about: \* When AI will take over the world and how will it be monetized \* The latest wave of hacks and what they mean for whatever we're building \* Using language models for new molecular discovery in materials science \* 4th gen nuclear reactors: pebble bed vs. molten salt (srsly, very cool chat) \* How you would crack a 10-year old Dogecoin wallet when you forgot the passphrase \* Startup nightmares and dreams come true Join us for more scintillating conversation on the 21st. See you there :)

how to get the first 100 customers without a budget

how to get the first 100 customers without a budget

Wed, Oct 21, 2:00 AM
From Counter Intelligence

Counte Intellignece club is for founders sick of hype. This month we talk GTM, how to get the first 100 customers. Not the usual BS we read in startups books or hear from accelerators, but the real stuff that can build traction. Led by an ex-airbnb marketer who got the first 25 B2B customers in less than 6 months. The stuff that works in shockingly simple & doesn't require much spending. If you are role playing being a founder, you would be smelled a mile away here, so keep out.
