- Get listed in any/every saas (esp b2b) directory I can find (haven't done producthunt yet, though).
- Send out cold emails (not a lot so far). I'd start making cold phone calls if I wasn't sitting at a day job during business hours every weekday. I could try postcards..?
- Post to online formus - kind of like I'm doing here :)
I'm really trying to avoid resorting to PPC ads, but it might be time to do that.
I'm also thinking of making it free for academic use, just to get some folks using the product and talking about it.
Also, the thought to find a partner who knows bizdev/marketing/sales has occurred to me.
Thanks! I think 30-70 visits per day without paying for them is quite a lot after six weeks. I'm in a similar situation, working a day job while trying to get something off the ground. Right now I'm just experimenting with ideas and trying to learn as much as possible.
I think paid ads is a pretty good approach to validate the product and copy, even if it's not a viable strategy in the long run.
Making it free for academic use makes sense in more than that sense. If you're lucky you might get a .edu backlink from it, which is valuable for seo.
