OP - it can be done.

Reach out to the CTOs and VPs of Engineering that list Kubernetes as one of their core technologies. They're most apt to choose K8s for their own team.

Ask them if they've had any issues with Kubernetes, specifically mis-configuration or slow turn around times for configuration changes.

Explain your framework in one or two lines. Pick out one or two _specific_, common problems with K8s and ask them "Are you experiencing X? How about Y?" Talk to them like you already know and feel their pain. Because you do (you wouldn't have created this framework otherwise).

You'll learn a lot. And maybe get adoption and mayb a consulting gig out of it. :)

Use the advanced search on Linkedin to find these people. Make sure your Linkedin title has something to do with being a Kubernetes expert.

If you're in a big city, find those clients that are local first, as you can visit them in person (that goes a long way).

e.g. Senior DevOps Consultant, Specializing in Kubernetes/HyScale.

Here's the people search you need. Use Hunter.io to find their emails.

Client outreach can be successful if it's specific and serving a genuine need.
