I’m a first-time startup founder attempting to get early usage for my new social investing app.

What advice do you have for getting your first 100 users? Would love to hear about strategies for growth, what you did, what creative and innovative things you tried, what technologies and softwares you used, etc.

    Start by reaching out to your personal and professional networks to spread the word about your app. Use social media like LinkedIn, Twitter, and Instagram to share your journey and connect with potential users. Creating content, like blog posts or videos about investing, can also draw in people interested in your app. You might want to invite people to test your app and give feedback, which can be done through platforms like BetaList. It’s crucial to listen to this feedback and use it to improve your app, encouraging these early users to tell others about it. Consider partnering with influencers or other startups to broaden your reach. Regular updates and tips sent through email can keep interested users engaged. Think about having a special launch event to create a buzz. Also, analyzing user data with tools like Google Analytics is essential to understand and enhance the user experience. If your budget allows, you can experiment with targeted advertising on social media. The key is to stay engaged with your audience and continuously adapt based on their feedback. Good luck with your exciting venture. Here’s a good read on mastering client acquisition. https://www.cuppa.so/post/the-ultimate-guide-to-mastering-client-acquisition-2023
